I know it's not strictly a Religion related picture, but I reckoned a good few people here (Galv) may get a giggle from this.

Just watching The Colbert Report from the 23rd of April with a guy who ran for head of the Texas school board or whatever as a creationist. Hilarious stuff. Apparently he's the subject of a documentary called The Revisionaries, seems to only be on limited release for now.

I don't recognise at least half of those.

Thankfully.


Edit: not even the weird guy in the green shirt who's there twice.

There are truly weird stories behind -- and I'm using that term as generously as I can -- each of them.

That'll be Ted Haggard, former head of the 30-million strong National Association of Evangelicals and founder and former head of the huge New Life Church in Colorado. That picture of him apparently eating an invisible banana is heavily symbolic because...

In 2006, a male prostitute went public with claims that he and Haggard had shared crystal meth and partaken in all kinds of gay sex. Haggard held out for a short while, then resigned, admitted just about everything, then spent several years selling insurance door-to-door, before opening up a new church in Colorado last year. Haggard came to the attention of the irreligious following this rather excellent exchange with Dawkins, taken from his Root of All Evil?

We all have our moments of weakness. Who are we to judge, etc, except Our Lord, etc...

Not quite as informative as the wikipedia link, but here's the ted haggard thing wrapped up in a tune : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZmHC75FDqQ

For anyone who knows their stuff:

"All we're askin' you to do
Is drop trou
And squeeze out
A Cleveland Steamer on my chest. ('Ooh.')

Two, three, four!
Give it up for KG, give it up for me,
Give it up for KG, give it up for me,
Give it up for rock, give it up for blues,
Give it up for everything that is not to lose.
Now, rock your socks off, woman,

:D

But rather fitting due to recent conversations.

Magic, that's one of the funniest friggin' posts I've ever seen.

Now, most of you thought that the reason why you shouldn't pull the chord is because it will blow your head and wobbly bits off. Therego, you're bigots.

Me, I think we shouldn't pull the chord because it's inappropriate to touch a female muslim, and if you do, they'll cut your head (and wobbly bits) off for it. Therego, not a bigot ........................... just being sensitive of my wobbly bits.

Actually I hate pulling the chords on those things because the noise is always really tinny and hurts my ears

Hedgehogs tend to have excellent hearing. Try changing your username and see if it has any effect?

I stay away from dolls with pull-the-cord-to-hear-me-speak things because they creep the living bejesus out of me.

I tended to try dismantling them to see how they worked. Never learned anything about them, other than RC cars and their remotes were more fun to dismantle. Hence why I kept wishing for RC stuff. Never learning anything much about them either other than they appeared complex.
