Jesus is gonna be PISSED.

[logansrogue]

Apparently, some people's Lord and Saviour isn't conservative enough for them!

And shit, they'd be right. Hangin' out with prostitutes, beggars, people with the bad luck to contract incurable diseases that leave them outcasts, tax collecters, rich dudes, poor dudes, fishermen, knocking back the wine, kicking over money-lenders, sharing food, snogging Judas... He was a communist, socialist, queer, barefoot, hippie. It's why I love Him.

But the folks behind the Conservapedia think it's time to end this supposed left-wing "understanding", "loving", "charitable" Jesus nonsense.

Yes, from the political movement that brough you Jesus Fight Club comes The Conservative Bible!

THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING. PEOPLE ARE REALLY DOING THIS.

I don't really have much else to say - go to the link.

Holy shit! That's... unbelievable!

*headdesks*

Jesus has no time for whores.

Wait, THIS IS REAL? WTF? I'm not Christian (or religious for that matter), but how can you REWRITE the Bible? Doesn't this go against the entire religion? o_O

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it kind of does. Back in the bad old days, if you did that sort of thing you were burnt at the stake as a Heretic.

Unless you were King James, which is the Fundamentalist's Bible of Bibles, ppht.

Damn, I'm feeling good and grumpy now. My curmudgeon is taking hold.

I think I like it!

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

Well, he was a KING. They got to do shit like that in those days.

These people's nipples would explode if they read the uncluttered translations done in the past twenty years. Or read about the gay weddings that used to take place in Christendom, once upon a time.

HAHAHA LMFAO You sure know how to write a headline, don't you? Nothing like "Jesus is gonna be PISSED" to get people's attention.

I'd say I'm surprised about all this, but honestly I'm not. People in general are idiots the world over.

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

He totally is, though. I know I would be. It'd be like if someone rewrote my blog and made out like I'm the second coming of Sarah Palin.

Unfortunately for these dudes, Jesus has buddies. Powerful buddies. And I'm not talking about his fists, Love and Forgiveness.

Yes, there is nothing more reliable than humanity's ability to be the biggest arsehole imaginable.

Less true to the original than the Lolcat Bible.

[zzzzsleep.livejournal.com]

How about the Lego Bible?

[hotclaws.livejournal.com]

Dear to goodness.:-)I'm re-reading the Bible at the moment so I shall follow the illustrations.

IMHO, it's one of the worst ideas anybody, anywhere, has ever had in the history of mankind. Perhaps the whole universe.

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

You degenerate. :-P

[asweetdownfall.livejournal.com]

What the haaaaale. I think my soul just died. :(

BTW your icon is just so perfect. SO. PERFECT.

I'm just gonna copy&paste my reply to lauradhel's post about site visits, as it's all too applicable:

"Some days, it's really hard to have any hope for humanity, and all too often teh intarwebz is right there, dragging it down further. *sigh*"

[melalucci.livejournal.com]

Oh, for Pete's sake. This is definitely a "headdesk" moment.

Conservatives. The guys who are all for conserving things, wants to change one of our oldest books around. The same book upon which they supposedely base the core of their own values.

How the hell do they take themselves seriously?

[shirasade]

Fuckwits. Seriously, THERE IS NOT ENOUGH HEADDESK IN THE WORLD!!! And those are the same people that keep telling us liberal Christians that you're supposed to take the Bible literally - and now they're WRITING THEIR OWN! (Incidentally, I've never read the King James version and not the old-style German Luther Bible either - a lot of newer translations are much closer to the original texts while being understandable.)
