If emulating the leader of one’s sect is now de rigueur,

Jesus wants us to emulate his love, his holiness, & his faith, not his robe.

Yes, but if you can also do works in his behalf, does that not also count as faith? My point: wearing the robe, which encourages thoughtfulness about Jesus on his birthday, is a work of faith. And, while wearing the costume, one is constantly required to think WWJD thoughts.

I would expect that the net results are positive.

As a Catholic, I fully understand what these people are about, and approve of it.

An odd way to express one’s faith in Christ, perhaps, but it sure shows more commitment than most have anymore.

“wall of separation” (Thomas Jefferson)

Jefferson signed legislation giving federal paychecks to missionaries. Jefferson worshiped in a church that met in the Capitol building.
The “wall” he wrote of–to the Danbury Baptist Association–was intended to keep the gov’t out of the church’s business only, according to that letter..

AllahPundit and his attempts to diminish, disparage, and ridicule the Christian faith are SO predictable. Here’s my challenge to the HA readership: Sort back through previous posts regarding Christianity. I predict that you will find that AllahPundit (and others like him — he’s not even original BTW) very nearly ALWAYS draws attention to the “loopy” followers of Jesus, or their behavior, or their “leadership”, or the dogmas and/or histories of Christian churches during the past 2000 years. He is more consistent than Newton’s law of gravitational attraction on this. He RARELY attacks Jesus Himself or the events that the disciples witnessed in the Gospels — and when he does, it’s a drive-by comment in the threads, where he never really sticks around long enough to argue his case. He ALWAYS goes for the easy target — the low hanging fruit. This is why AllahPundit can NEVER be taken seriously on this stuff. His “challenges” are basically cowardly lowball comedy. Anyone, Christians included, can easily laugh off this stuff — even my dog knows why. Tell’em collie:

My collie says:

Pointing out the flaws and mistakes of people that CLAIM to be disciples of Jesus, or pointing out the mistakes that organized religion (aka Christian churches — including the RCC) have made over the centuries says ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about the ministry of Jesus or its value. In fact, precisely BECAUSE Jesus said that His kingdom is not of this world, but rather, a spiritual kingdom, all of the behaviors and events that people like AllahPundit are SO fond of using to bash the Christian faith, only serves to vindicate EVERYTHING that Jesus taught us.

Collie, you’re smarter than you look — in that respect, AllahPundit is exactly like the liberal loons, viz. his rhetoric/policies toward Christianity have EXACTLY the OPPOSITE of their intended effect.

As for the whole Jesus getup, I thought that if you masqueraded as the Lord of Lords, they twisted off your thumbs, or something. When did they stop that?

I’m fed up with the fake or destructive umbrage of Christians over their mythology not being shown in public. Besides the fact that they can freely practice and advertise their mythology, they, and many Americans, need to be informed about the utmost importance of the separation of church and state: http://www.rationalrevolution.net/articles/history_of_the_separation_of_chu.htm

Have you ever seen the documentary “Jesus Camp”? It’s unreal what some far-right Fundamentalists do to their kids…

HERE is the trailer, and the entire film is also available to watch on YouTube as well. If anyone has the time, it’s definitely worth a watch.

Man, I miss my school days. There was a fairly devout Baptist church that would have their children try to get their classmates to come to church by telling them they would go to hell unless they joined that church. Imagine how much more motivated I would have been to dress up like the savior…sorry..that just seems really disrespectful.

It’s one thing to shave your entire body and put some hamburger patties on your chest and say you’re Barrack Obama..but to parade around in a crown of thorns…just doesn’t seem like you’re taking the whole religion thing too seriously.

When a sect has abandoned the dominically instituted means of grace, it is left to its own devices and makes stuff up, in a fruitless (and often just plain tacky) effort to arrogate merit. It’s nothing, and leads to nothing– merely a foolish promise to scratch itching ears.

Why don’t we send Jetboy? I’m sure that the Catholic Churches over there approve of his chosen recreational activity.

That's much easier than Catholics in the Philippines, some of whom routinely have themselves crucified every year.
