Bible and Jesus, pick your faves and ignore the rest

Here's that Jack Black Jesus video you've probably seen a few times already. Good stuff. You know, banning gay marriage is really unconstitutional even though there's a lot of support for it (for banning it, I mean), and it's only a matter of time before the Federal government stops allowing states to keep those laws on the books. OK, it will be a looong time, a very slow process, I give you that, but eventually it will not be possible to deny that the laws banning same-sex marriage were made on the basis of religion only - since there are no practical or logical reasons to ban it. PLUS -- the Conservatives' consolation prize (the spoonful of sugar on that icky medicine they hate) is that it really is good for business. And when it comes down to it, it's the bottom line will matter most.



Alright, I can't watch John C. Reilly and Jesus (whether bearded or baby) without thinking of this Ricky-Bobby saying Grace at dinner scene. Love. It.

Loved the first one (yes, bible indeed says shrimps are an abomination). I'm not familiar with saying Grace, so I pretty much missed the second one.
