Excessive Religion + Consumer Society = Fail

[Bloodsoul]

To be honest, this is why I love Hebrew Nationals' motto, "We Answer to a Higher Authority".

For the past few weeks I've continually kept my open drawing notebook by my register, just to doodle between customers on dead nights (shh, don't tell). Gotten a lot of positive feedback.

...wonder how would people react if I said she was a goddess character for Dungeons and Dragons? ^_^

When I threaten to give my big guy a butt kicking the likes of which God Himself has never seen, is that blasphemy?

And, NO I wouldn't really give my son a butt kicking.

Yes, but only because the creator has seen a lot of crap throughout human history and unless you've invented a new form of torture he's seen it.

A hundred years later, i don't know if its better or worse that now we don't lock people up for suffering from the same condition, but let them wander the streets becoming distressed at what they see around them.

I'd rather have 'em wandering the streets than holding public office. At least then their antics are far more amusing.

Call me crazy, but I'd have been tempted to lean in real close to that guy, and, speaking in a low, conspirational
whisper, say, "Hi....My name is Satan. And I'm going to barbecue you when you die."

Weren't the Beatles bigger than God, too, or was that just the Simpsons' rip-off, the B-Sharps?
I wasn't terribly impressed with them, either.

[Pagan]

Please count me among those that would like to see the entire list, too!

How dare he use my name in vein without my permission.

Which vein? The pulmonary or venae cavae? Or like a vein of gold? Or is meant to be in a humorous vein? Or, maybe, in vain? Sorry, that one made me giggle....a lot!

[CrazedClerk]

The Beatles were supposedly bigger than JESUS, not God.

I can so see a scene like that in a movie. The clerk takes the report and throws it in the garbage and then "burn baby burn" starts to play as the clerk dances and the guy gets a horrified look on his face.

The product line *Generic Cleaning Company* Antibacterial wipes. The packaging claims that there is nothing better, this is blasphemy as it implies that the product is better than God himself.

Errr...if God is all-powerful, can he create a bacteria that a cleaning wipe better than him can't kill?

*head implodes*

Well, logically, if God created bacteria and Generic Cleaning Company wipes kill said bacteria, then yes. I'd say Wipes - 1, God = 0 at this point.

I'm so glad I'm able to mainly avoid religious nutjobs at my job. We USE to have an account for some sort of insane praise Jeebus church infomercial that would wrangle us all sorts of crazies ( That line was an entire post onto itself ). But they canceled it 2-3 years ago, thank God.

I too would like to see this in depth report though. ^^

Report status: KIA

Sorry to anyone who wanted to see the original report, it was destroyed by a spilled 2 litre bottle of coke
If i get chance i will try to recreate a partial version of the report

Assuming I didn't have to worry about getting my ass canned for it, my reply to that guy would've been:

"Buddy, let me ask you something, okay? I'm already going to burn in hell for being a godless heathen, so why the hell should I care?"

The Beatles were supposedly bigger than JESUS, not God.

Actually, what was said was that the Beatles were "more popular than Jesus Christ." Which I never saw as blasphemous, because, when you're talking popularity, in many parts of the world, the Beatles were more popular than Jesus. Just a statement of fact.

And they said it because they had sold more albums than bibles that year.

"Buddy, let me ask you something, okay? I'm already going to burn in hell for being a godless heathen, so why the hell should I care?"

But as a godless heathen, you won't burn. Maybe a bit of a darker tan than you'd like, but...

You'll also bust out the hotdogs and the keg.

I do know that, thing is that in the pop culture world, the general belief is that Beatles did at one time make the ridiculous clain that they were "Bigger than Jesus" even if that's not quite what was said and what was meant.
