Strangely work-safe link... but you must click it.

(Stolen from the StarCityGames.com forums, from a guy who has my favorite forum sig yet: "Just shut up and play Affinity.")

(Tell me I'm full of it)

After the opening line ("I like! Big! BIBLES!"), it was pretty stupid. But the opening line was funny.

All I got was the "Windows Media Player" moving logo, and a pop-up that got through Mozilla Firefox.

In my LJ, I have the original site that links to a QT version, a Real version and a Windows version.

And the lyrics.

That was awesome. I love "Baby Got Back" and that was just hilarious. (and I don't mean as in 'Look at those silly Christians', but as in how creative!)

Tres Bizarre! I am getting flashbacks of Saved!. BTW, was I the only one that thought that the girl at the beginning strongly resembled Chelsea Clinton?

Hahaha! That was awesome. I bought the DVD. Seriously. This is what I wrote in the paypal Note to Seller box:

"Don't you love it when someone puts a link to show how silly Christians are and then someone follows that link and buys a DVD? Yeah, bad press is better than no press!"

:D

Wow, that is scary and ...not scary all at once. Really creative, even if it is kinda silly.

Hey, I challenge you to find the passage in Old Testament, New Testament or the Apocrapha that says "Thou shalt have no sense of humor to speak of." ;)

I love that. . .it's so creative and funny! Somebody had posted that earlier in her journal and I had posted it at Christian Forums, where I spend most of my online time now.

I always say, "Alas, I am more of a paperback NRSV girl." LOL

Stein Auf!

ROFL! Thankyou. =:o}

The point may be lost on some viewers outside of Christianity or not familiar with some of it's forms, but I think this is a pretty sharp down-to-earth rebuttal to the those endless "which translation is best?" discussions indulged in by certain snobbish taking-ourselves-far-too-seriously Christian groups. I love it.

Oh my God! That's an icon I made...where did you find it? I'm curious since I made it specifically for a friend and never expected it to pop up anywhere else.

One of my friends had it on his photo-storage website with a bunch of other neat icons and random things. Would you like me to cease using it since you made it for someone?

I cannot figure out

(Link)
The worst part is I still can't figure out it if was suppose to be serious or sarcastic.

What does that say when religion is being pushed with a catchy hip wrapper and you cannot tell it apart from people mocking it…

Following the link I still can’t figure out if it is a parody or not. Someone who named their child Zion Daniel Smith? Gyah, this is painful.

Christianity the new cool.

It's his wife -- they had been trying for 5 years to have a baby. I guess he still wanted her in his video.

Hmmm. Well, at least I have an answer.

Oddly, if you think about it, he's appearing in the vid with his wife as the woman he wants. Therefore, no conflict in belief.

Or it could just be all that Nyquil I took. ^_~

Yeah, makes sense, as does his not making kissy faces at a woman who isn't his wife. (As in he doesnt use the video as an excuse to be fake.)

Well, I guess it wasn't the Nyquil then. Good to know, because I haven't gone to bed yet...and as we all know, not going to bed before the Nyquil works CAN be a dangerous thing.

CREEEEEEEEEEEEEEPY! Someone just sent me this link today and I posted it in my own journal. I seriously don't know whether I ought to be amused or severly frightened by it.
