Not much, if you were Jesus.


This image has little to do with the
article. It’s amazing how riled up
people can get about 3 words though.

Well not much, if you were Jesus. On the other hand, it’s pretty cool in another way, because it’s one of those rare moments when two world religions have a chance to realize how connected they are, instead of getting into a “my god is better than your god” debate. I say “a chance to realize”, because historically, it’s gone the other way. I find it a little scary that to this day, thirty-seven percent of Americans agree that Jews were responsible for killing Jesus Christ. Wake up kids, Jesus was a Jew. And your precious Easter Dinner? You’re just adding bunnies to the traditional Passover dinner that Jesus himself ate. So let’s all take a minute to remember that if you believe in God, and believe there’s only one God, y’all probably believe in the same God. And for those who haven’t picked their favorite religion yet, please refer to The Big Religion Chart By the way, if you’re Jewish, Christian, Other, Or Agnostic, I’d love to hear your thoughts. Atheists need not apply, you’ve had enough press time lately…

    I like that chart, Ian! South Park also offers some helpful explanations of religions, esp. Mormonism and Scientology.

    You slay me, TeacherPatti. Always with the South Park. Do you own stock or something?

    Can’t forget the Mel Gibson episode.

    But the chart missed apathetics, to whose beliefs I strictly adhere.

    Good eye, John. But apparently Assumption College in Worcester, Massachusetts offers help through their Apathetics Anonymous program

    You’d think those bastards would pay me for pimping their show, wouldn’t you???
    I actually avoided the show for years until my husband convinced me it wasn’t anti-woman (they rip on everyone) and then I fell in love. Now I think I’ve seen every episode. I even had a South Park watch for awhile :)
