The Purpose Driven… Bwahaha!

January 31st, 2009

I’ve not read Rick Warren’s The Purpose Driven Life, but after hearing this bit from Bill Maher, I may have to go pick up for the entertainment value. Then when I’m done reading it, I can shelve it in my library right next to Aesop’s Fables… except maybe then someone would think that it was appropriate for children. Probably best if it gets shelved next to the bibles and the Koran. Then there won’t be any doubt.

And people actually BUY this kind of stuff? And by “buy” I mean “believe” and “take seriously.” I think the last person anyone should be taking life advice from is a bigoted homophobe. Oiy!

The Crucifixion of Jesus was Serious Business

December 19th, 2008

Any time an omnipotent, invisible being has a child (who is also himself) and sends him(self) to Earth so that he can tell everyone about his father (who is himself) and get them to worship him(self), in order to eventually have him(self) persecuted and killed in a bloody, horrendous manner, and then have him(self) resurrected in order to magically create a  ”belief for forgiveness” trading post in the sky, really deserves nothing but reverence and respect, both intellectually and spiritually.

*cough*

So in the spirit of treating “serious” matters seriously…

Q: What did Jesus say while he was being crucified?

A: Aaaaaaaaaaaahhh…

Q: What’s the difference between Jesus Christ and an oil painting?

A: You only need one nail to hold up an oil painting.

Jesus walks into a hotel. He hands the innkeeper three nails and says, “Can you put me up for the night?”

I don’t want to break a commandment and say that these are my jokes. That would be lying… which, in this case, wouldn’t technically be “bearing false witness” against my neighbor, but even so, I’d rather give credit where credit is due. These all came from Liberator.net page of Jesus Jokes and Pictures.

When it comes to joke material, religion really is pretty much a bottomless bucket.
