Hey, remember that guy Jesus? |
Hey, remember that guy Jesus?
I know his teachings have gotten a bit lost lately, what with all the
war and torture and bombings and reverends saying things like "blow
them all away in the name of the Lord."

But have no fear - Jesus is back!
Don't expect to see him on a broadcast station near you, though.
Last week CBS, UPN, and NBC announced that they would not be airing a
commercial by the United Church of Christ because it is "too
controversial" and "unacceptable for broadcast."
What blasphemies does this commercial contain?
Well, it features a church with mean-looking bouncers outside turning
away gay, minority, and disabled parishioners, and concludes with the
message "Jesus didn't turn people away. Neither do we."
Hey, wait a minute - that actually sounds like real Christianity!
But I guess the whole "love thy neighbor" thing is a bit passé these
days, what with the triumph of George W. Bush's gay-hating "moral
majority."
Kudos to CBS, UPN and NBC for preventing a church from promoting the
old-fashioned Christian tenet of inclusiveness.
We won't be needing any of THAT in George W. Bush's America, thank you
very much.

My wife witnessed an incident a few weeks back. She was across the
street from a church, Unitarian I think, when several cars pulled up and
people with signs got out and began harassing the people who were
walking into the church. They were those "God Hates Fags"
christofaceists from Kansas who had the audacity to call the church
goers "nazis". She was quite shaken, and still is, to see such hate in
the name of Jesus. sick fucks.
