    A vagina

    Eh, no. It's a skeletal old woman with her hair in a bun, wearing flares (or possibly chaps) holding a rabbit in front of a mirror - obviously!

    Facebook is so awful that a Brazilian guy makes his own one - no swearing, no violence, no porn. And it's got an "Amen" button:

    "On Facebook you see a lot of violence and pornography. That's why we thought of creating a network where we could talk about God, love and to spread His word," ...

    Yeah, a lot of those violent posts are of muslims and christians doing terrible things.

    and all the talk about 'love' seems to require women have EXTRA strong privacy measures (Sexist) and all gay material is banned.

    They are so nuts that they actually sought out a programming language that has some reference to religious words or symbols. That seems to be Perl.

    You can imagine the group think that goes on there. Scary stuff. Give me a pic with boobs anytime over that lunacy.

    I know Perl has a bless command, (objects are blessed references in Perl-OO), but I'm not sure the interpreter counts as a deity!

    I always felt there was something vaguely icky about Perl - now I know why.
    I just tried to read through Mr Wall's ramblings on religion (see point 7 of http://interviews.slashdot.org/story/02/09/06/1343222/larry-wall-on-perl-religion-and). Now I understand why Perl is such a quirky mess. Anyone whose mind is muddled by religion in this way could not be expected to produce a reasonable language.

    Give me a scripting language named after the creators of the Life of Brian any day!

    Meaningful whitespace!!

    While Mr. Wall learned linguistics in order to go forth and testify (sad but true), Perl's expressiveness did benefit from this.

    (Note: Perl and Vim are the 2 holy wars worth fighting ;) )

    Saddlebacking
    Saddlebacking - the term for the phenomenon of Christian teens engaging in unprotected anal sex in order to preserve their virginities. Named after Saddleback Church, home of the Reverend Rick Warren, who is a proponent of abstinence education, the "sex ed" that has convinced so many Christian girls and boys that buttf..king isn't actually sex.
    Saddlebacking - After attending the Purity Ball, Heather and Bill saddlebacked all night because she's saving herself for marriage.

    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    I hope Pastor Manning is wearing a stab vest, some of the folks standing behind him look unhappy :pac:
    In the first video, he's speaking in front of a Richard the Lionheart shield/coat of arms. Must have been presented to him by admirers in the English Defence League.

    One fine Sunday morning, Satan appeared in a small town congregation. Everyone in the church started screaming and running for the front door, trampling each other in their frantic effort to escape.

    Soon, everyone was gone, except for one elderly gentleman who sat calmly in his pew, so Satan walked up to the man and said, "Don't you know who I am?"

    The man replied, "Yep, sure do."

    Satan then asked, "Aren't you going to run too?"

    "Nope, sure ain't," said the man.

    Very perplexed and perturbed by the man's reaction, Satan asked, "Why aren't you afraid of me?"

    The man calmly replied, "I've been married to your sister for over 48 years."
