Extra Jesus Dot Com

Hrm, you don’t see this very often.  A giant Jesus  balloon was flying around Tracy, California. The article says that Tracy is near San Francisco but I’m not sure how near as I don’t know where it is. Sorry Tracy. Did you know that today was National Prayer Day? I didn’t either. Yes, I know that it’s actually called something else. Did you know that tomorrow is National No Pants Day? I didn’t think you did.

Cnet has an article titled “Is Jesus the next killer app?” that takes a look at how high tech is transforming the church and maybe even making church interesting. I think it’s great that so much technology is readily available and pretty cheap to boot. Now days even the preachers are giving Powerpoint presentations. Just think about the day when churches employ webcams and you won’t even have to leave the comfort of your own bed to attend church. While some may think that going to church in your underwear is sacreligious I think it’s okay, I can’t recall anytime that Jesus specifically forbade it…

The Stage is reporting that the BBC is making their own Jesus drama and it’s set to be released sometime around Easter 2008. I’m not sure if this will be too late to take advantage of all the recent Jesus stuff that’s been going on but I always welcome new Jesus documentaries.

Is it just me or does the kid in this picture of a “Clown for Jesus” look like he’s about to punch the clown and run? I can’t say that I blame him. I can think of better ways of getting kids to recite Bible verses than getting a scary clown to hover nearby. Sheesh, I get the shivers every time I look at this. I’ve wondered where my fear of clowns comes from and I think it goes back to the time I went to the circus and a clown killed my dad.

The little town of Chiquinquira, Columbia, has put itself on the map because a woman has found Jesus in her wall. The image of Jesus appeared during the week of Easter and the Vatican is sending out experts to take a look at the wall. This Jesus wall is not to be confused with the other Jesus wall that I wrote about.

I have a sort of Jesus sighting category that may also interest you.

Reader Barfly points us to a drink that is named Walk Me Down (Sweet Jesus). Has anyone ever had one of these? If so, is it any good? What other Jesus drinks do you know about? If there are enough out there we might have to add a new category to the site…

The ACLU are at it again, this time wanting a picture of Jesus removed from a school. Unlike the last time I wrote about them I have to agree on this one. Institutions should be free of any sort of religious crap strewn about, unless those institutions happen to be religious in nature like a Catholic school or something. Otherwise, always seperate the Church from State. Period.

I previously wrote about the ACLU here.
