T-Rex has been introduced (by God, but that's a whole different storyline) to what they call "homographic homophonic autantonyms" and he totally fell for them. As how could he not? (Select the comic to actually read it!)

(I had learned these as a somewhat simpler "autoantonym" and have a list of them here.)

And if you are interested in reading (and being an atheist) you are a prime candidate to join us in the Non-Believing Literati! Check it out here
