Uh, ok.

two great fictions that go great together.

"When I went into the church as the Joker, there was complete silence," Seagears recalled fondly. "People were stunned because I was acting as if I was evil."

I'm not sure what to say.

I remember meeting Golda Meir and her husband, the man who perfected the hotdog, Oscar Meir.

/Got nothin'

Why so serious?

Just remember that The Dark Knight had the strange contradiction of The Joker praising massive chaos and spontaneity while being a meticulous planner. Batman was the agent of chaos in that movie.

I'd love to see the Batman sermon. Should be a trip. But the Joker was the preaching hypocrite in that movie.

So...American churches are more and more like the costumed religions of Africa and the Americas, with their shamans dressed as pantheistic powers and mythological icons.

If I knew more about Claude Levi-Strauss I'd be dry humping Seagear's ministry into a PhD in Anthro. Oh baby.

"Striking terror. Best part of the job!"

FTFA: "Last month he saw "Hellboy II: the Golden Army," in which an evil prince seeks to resurrect an indestructible army to take over the Earth by assembling pieces of a magical crown.

We, too, have invaluable crowns, Seagears preached, rewards God has prepared for those who love and serve him faithfully."

He went for the crown reference? I might have mentioned something about evil armies and world domination.

Well, I bet he got a lot of the congregation praying...for him.

You know, it's cheezy as hell, but speaking as someone who spends all but two months of her life trying to get kids to pay attention to something they wouldn't normally give a shiat about...

Well. I kinda know where he's coming from.

A Suzuki? He rode in on a girls bike? Was this a ghey church? Not that there's anything wrong with that, but if you want to make an impact, you need to ride in on a Hawg.

You shut your whore mouth. He probably rode in on a Zook, 'cause he wanted it to actually.. Oh, I dunno.. Start and run, maybe?

He is teaching life lessons by using the characters from movies? Don't see a problem with that. Beats the snoozfests that were droned into us when I was a kid.

Some of you need to chill out a little. There are hateful people doing harmful things under the guise of Religion in this world.
This guy is not one of them

/yes, I'm atheist
//oh, and, Harleys suck!

Super heroes and religion don't mix.

I, for one, am surprised that a church would co-opt secular entertainment to preach to their sheep. What's next? Amateurish Christian versions of mainstream rock bands?

//Get your religion out of my mass-market cultural bilge!

Yes, all the big boys straddle hogs. A lot of them also still wear Greek fisherman's hats and leather chaps. Oo! Macho menses!

I reserve comment, having not heard one of him sermons.

Oh look. A thread with two (typically) sexually-insecure harley fans.
I can't decide which is queenier ... the one who likes to "ride hawgs," or the one prancing about and swatting at things with a bit of newsprint.

When I was young, my grandmother was the most religious person I knew. She lived humbly, ate a diet dictated by her beliefs, prayed and sang devotional hymns. She did not go to secular entertaiments.

Because of her I have no respect for these new religious movements that say "Do whatever feels good, just as long as it mentions God or Jesus." These things are an obvious attempt to keep young people in the church at a time when the world is full of distractions from TV, music, video games, and the Internet.

Hmmm...despite being an atheist, I think it might be worthwhile to go see a sermon with that guy

Last week's sermon at the church for which I play began with a viewing of the "5, no, 3 questions" scene from Monty Python's The Holy Grail. No joke.

For a second there, I thought you meant 'No 3 The Larch', which would've been relatively obscure for a sermon

RabidSquirrel: "When I went into the church as the Joker, there was complete silence," Seagears recalled fondly. "People were stunned because I was acting as if I was evil."

People were wondering when they'd converted to Islam.

Or possibly the one who doesn't understand the concept of "joke"?

Wouldn't I have to actually be A MALE to be a Queen?
