Now we are suppose to trust these people when they tell us that leaving will be a disaster.

So true.

its the marketing stupid!!!

Friedrich Nietzsche "will to power" energy bars are here.
This is at the same time the greatest idea in food marketing ever and the worst. I say greatest because it is clever and because I think Nietzsche is swell. I say worst because your average fat ass consumer doesn't know who the hell Nietzsche is. But that once again makes it great: elitist food. Ok at least in Georgia, this would not go over well. I mean who is gonna stock them, Wal-Mart? Anyhow, as far as I know you can't buy them in stores. You can only get them over at Unemployed Philosophers Guild.
While your there check out their "What would Nietzsche do?" T-shirt and if you want go ahead and buy it for me and I can give you my mailing address upon request. They also have a fine line of watches:


Relativity Watch




Dali Watch



And of course the eternal recurrence watch.

The Gold Teeth Phenomenon: or why some Christians are stupider than chimpanzees

So if you haven't yet heard, after two thousand years of letting himself go and being generally unproductive, god is back and he is better than......ok well he is a little rusty, or should i say gold. It is a phenomenon( in the same way that people believing they have been anally probed by beings from other planets and The Macarena are phenomenon) that is sweeping churches across the land. Buffoons, or to use the politically correct euphemism, Believers claim that during church services they receive previously non-existent gold teeth, and that gold dust has been seen by masses coming from the ceiling. No really its all here:

http://www.ccfinc.org/Gold_Dust_Gold_Fillings_and_Angel_Feathers.html

Now first off gold teeth are just tacky,

but secondly, these people believe that GOD ALMIGHTY, ruler of heaven and earth, has been reduced to doing parlor tricks for no other reason than their own titillation, and alleviation from boredom. The idea that a Being who created the Universe, as wasteful and vacuous as it is, has now become so thrifty and small minded with his powers would seem enough for even the slowest wit to apply Ockham's razor here without even having to know what the fuck Ockham's razor is. Then again when we consider his small minded followers, this is about their speed. I doubt believers in such foolishness ever give the grandeur of the universe a second thought, after all their God created in the image of small mindedness never did:

And the stars did make he also.

I know what your thinking. Why give such nonsense the time of day? Easy, the same reason I would visit a carnival that promised a smörgåsbord's of freaks. It is just really ever so hard for me to wrap my head around this. How the fuck can anyone believe this? I'll leave any serious debunking of these claims to the really concerned out there and for my part just dismiss the whole thing out of hand based on it's premise alone. A premise which if put into an anthropomorphic analogy, it would be the equivalent of Oprah Winfrey going bankrupt and being reduced to giving blow jobs for crack. Ok, maybe the blow jobs for crack part doesn't apply here, so lets say she was reduced to doing laxative commercials. Unfucking believable. I mean think of it. A tsunami wipes out a hundred thousand people in one day, but does God use his power to bring these people back to life or prevent the tsunami? Of course not, because he is too busy putting bling in some bible thumping dumbfucks mouth. Forget "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence", give me something extraordinary why don't you. My fucking dentist can put gold in my mouth too, the difference is, I don't forget its there and attribute it to the invisible dentist in the sky, or just flat out lie about it. Oh, and I almost forgot the angel feathers. Yes, these fucktards also claim that during their carnival show, angel feathers appear out of thin air. I'll tell you what, I'll be a true believer when they can produce some angel poo. I mean why not? Angels with real feathers take real poos, they do. That is the only sign I require from the good lord, is to have one of his half bird half man creatures fly over the faithful and take a giant poop on thier heads and I shall never doubt again.

The Best Of Kitsch Christianity

For this installment of The Best Of Kitsch Christianity well take a look at some of the art that touches the soul of our Christian brothers and sisters:

Lets start with Mr. Cosmic Christ here:


I'm sorry, but what the hell is he thinking? What if he had to sneeze all of the sudden? It could cause a fucking tsunami for Christ sake!!! How irresponsible!!!




Now this is what I call functional art. It's also what I call morbid. These colorful nail impaled hands belong to our savior who's agonizing death on the cross not only saves souls, but now saves your coat too. That's right, these are coat racks. What the hell were they thinking? I mean it is a step up from just hanging a bleeding torture victim on the wall who serves no purpose other than to remind us why we are all going to hell, but Christ, this is a little tasteless even for me. Can you imagine hanging a coat on one of these? I think I would opt to hold my coat.






Holy Shit!!! This is fucking awesome! Jesus is turning his arm into that other guys arm so he can get wasted. Not only is he doing drugs, he is stealing them with his powers. Look at the agony in his face. Maybe it is his first time, but you would think after crucifixion this would be a walk in the park. Ok just kidding I know how they are doing it. The one guy is just sticking his arm through Jesus' robe. But check out the skull on the table. This guy is bad news!!!

That's it for now, but i'm sure i'll come across something soon that makes this stuff look like high art.
