Kids! Come Party With Jesus!!! |
|
Edited on Wed Jul-21-04 10:54 PM by Moonbeam_Starlight
Yep, I actually saw that on a flyer today in a poorer neighborhood in my city. Then it had the name and address of the church.
It was aimed at teens. It even went on to read: "Jesus wants to party with YOU!!!" There was cheesy clip art of balloons and confetti.
Who knew Jesus was a partier? Did you?
To make this eligible for the GD forum, you guys have made me see things like that differently (well, the internet has). I am a Christian, but of the VERY liberal, leave people the hell alone ilk. My beliefs don't hurt anyone, I ask to be left alone in return. That's all.
But THAT just cracked me the hell up. And before the internet, I wouldn't have batted an eye at it. Hell, there's a church on every corner here with signs like "We'll keep you from getting SON-burn." Hardee har har. Now I notice stuff like that. And cock my head and wonder at it. I still have spiritual beliefs (notice not RELIGIOUS but spiritual, big difference to me), but I am glad to notice stuff like that more now.
Do you think Jesus endorses Kerry? I might have to go to that party and find out. I'll bring him a Kerry shirt.
On edit: how many times did I put "hell" in this post? Ha! Cussing Christians R Us.

It made me laugh. Then scared me a little. I'm just glad I wasn't there. Sheesh.

Unless they have a different definition of "party" than I did, as a youngster.

11. What is it about x-tian fundies... |
|
... that keeps them from being "hip"? Ads like that show how the church just doesn't get kids today. "Party with Jesus," golly, have they finally advanced into the 1980's?

14. OMG, are you sure that wasn't an ad for the movie "Saved!"? |
|
Sounds just like something Pastor Skip would say.
If you haven't seen the movie yet, you MUST!
