I have noticed a great preponderance of this type of humor over the past decade. Twenty or thirty years ago you would not have seen it, and it would have been totally unacceptable. But now we see these types of jokes on cartoon shows, live action comedy shows, and in movies.

I have a few thoughts about them.

One is that they are sometimes offensive. I know its a free country with free speech, but does that mean its okay for someone to mock my religion?

Another thing I think is that the whole thing has just become tired and boring. What was shocking 12 years ago has now become mundane. Talentless comedy writers just throw in jokes about religion (in this case, about Jesus) just to get a rise out of people.

I'm not totally against humor that is about religion. If its clever and makes us think and ask some good questions, than it can sometimes be a good thing.

But if its just to try and get a rise out of people then its silly and banal.

What are your thoughts about this?

James 5:16
Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

the bible never said confess your sins.....Why do you disobey?

God made the water but a man blessed it? How can man bless anything made perfect from God?

religions have all the attributes of a disease.

its infectious. especially within families from parents to children.
it makes you do stupid stuff like killing people who dont believe in your religion. can you imagine a pathogenic disease that compels you to kill people not infected???
it manipulates your mind, make you believe in things you normally wouldnt like self-contradictory things i.e. god loves you god can do anything yet people still suffer.
its CHRONIC, children are most at risk. the longer a person has it the harder it is to cure them. beside being very hard to cure in the first place.



the more i think of it religions are like AIDS but worse.

was shes Gods mom? or just a vessel for a thing for God to enter?

Luke 1:35
And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

why do the last 3 words say Son of God......not Mary?

what have they proven? they havent proved that God does not exist. they have come up with "fact" that evolution took place. how do we know this fact is correct? actually we dont know if this fact is correct. we are given graphs and charts and terminolgy to "prove" evolution, big bang, existance of atoms and molecules. are we not being bamboozled? yes, i have heard of a micro scope, i have heard and read about CERN. but nohting has proven that God does not exis.
