From BoingBoing yesterday comes this great bit of news about company called You’ve Been Left Behind, which, for a small fee and all of your personal bank codes/email passwords/trace-your-housekey-on-this-piece-of-paper, will notify all of your heathen friends and family what to do with your leftover money/pets/bibles after you’ve been “raptured” and they’ve been left behind.

… now might be a good time. In a scene straight out of ‘The Life of Brian’, priests and worshipers got into a brawl at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher over something really important! Police who responded were pummeled with palm fronds.
Artist Janet Galore rendered ‘Jesus of Peeps’ using 494 peeps. Coming in at 4.5 feet by 3.5 feet she worries that it is still a bit low rez — you do have to squint a bit. (I’m not too clear on what the green is.) The Just Born Company of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania makes 1.2 billion
The Kids in the Hall do up The Passion… Dr. Seuss style. [youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_hEwxglKD8] The KITH will appear at the PPAC on May 1st.
I’ve long felt that Michael Moore greatly underestimated the huge affection that many peace-loving gun control advocates have for Charlton Heston.

Obama’s speech yesterday addressing race and the manufactured Jeremiah Wright controversy was brilliant and moving.

Which one is Ben Stein? Here he is in the Projo, going off on Darwinism. And here he is on O’Reilly: [youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWMGD1Dg6L8] Stein gets this right (while taking on the tone of the godless evolutionist Christopher Hitchens): Maybe we would have a new theory: We are just pitiful humans.

The New York Times reports that three speakers invited to participate in a recent conference on terrorism may not be former Muslim terrorists as they claim, but rather proselytizing Christians. Members of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, a group suing the
I’m just guessing here, but I think that Governor Carcieri’s wife, Susan, is not an expert in Constitutional law, or anything else for that matter.

Online sympathizers of al Qaida from across the internet have submitted hundreds of questions for deputy leader Ayman Al-Zawahri over the past two months for an “on-line interview” on a militant Islamic website, and many supporters seem to be as in the dark about their activities and future plans as the rest of the world.

This is the ad I just saw while I was checking out the Laugh Out Loud Cat Bible which is a wiki that is working on translating the Bible into ‘cat pidgin’ (see I Can Has Cheezburger). Which was a little confusing; are actual Christians (like people who go the church and stuff) really going
