1. Interesting.
It's rare that a sitcom actor is even dumber than his character.

5. I got to the 10 Commandment questions and left.
Maybe I should pose as a Christian.

6. Hey - they stole the "yes" and "no" sounds from The Bit in TRON
Thieves!!!!

What a crappy site.

"God doesn't want them (the unsaved people) to go to hell, but...."

See, in my theology, in my preaching, I say "God doesn't really want anyone to go to hell, so that's why he came to earth in the form of Jesus to say to us 'Look, I love you, don't fear'".

But that's just me.

7. Holy hell, what a crapload of bad theology!
I've been cruising all over the place in this site, and it's totally messed up.

Apparently, they don't know how you get to heaven - one part says you have to believe in Jesus, and that's the only way. Another part says it's all about works - which is to say, you have to follow the ten comandments utterly.

I totally love the line "Are you good ENOUGH to get into Heaven?"

Yeah, Jesus was all about being good ENOUGH.

Dipshits.

The whole reason God sent Jesus was because NO ONE is good enough to "get" into heaven, and perfection isn't what God wants of us anyway - God wants us to love, and knows we'll continually fail, but wants us to go forit anyway, and gave us grace so we don't have to worry about laws and crap.

ARGH!!!

What a dumb site.

I'm also appalled that in the area where they offer help for Christians to talk to people about their faith, EVERY damn thing involves "That's great that you are interested in helping your friends/strangers/family/whatever with that - if you buy my kit (and all kits are specific to the myraid of questions, which means you have to buy a lot of them) you will have your answer."

Nope - no free help. it's all available for a low price, though, with a total refund guarantee.

Good Christian people, that.

10. Exactly
This site is almost as bad as a Jack Chick tract in using fear to convert.

They make Billy Graham look like a choirboy.

Jack Chick just scares the shit out of me sometimes.

9. Check out KC in "Left Behind"
That's the video version of the first book in the series of apocalyptic novels. He plays a tough reporter for some CNN-type news network, but is totally unconvincing as he looks like he barely graduated from middle school. One night while channel surfing I caught Kirk preaching away on TBN.

11. Speaking of Cameron...
Edited on Fri Mar-26-04 01:59 AM by scottcsmith
I saw him on TBN the other day, discussing how stupid atheists are. Really. He didn't come out and say "atheists are stupid," but essentially did by talking about intelligence and how atheists are "denying facts" or some shit related to creationism. The implication was pretty clear, anyway. You atheists are morons!

Edit: I hadn't checked out the "way of the master" link before I posted, but that's the show I saw Cameron on when he was discussing atheists.

13. It's fun!
I just discovered something fun. After Kirk asks you if you are a Christian, see if you can get the robotic "yes" and "no" to play at the same time by quickly moving your mouse pointer back and forth.

15. Kirk must be on some good drugs
Kirk: Hey folks, let's just follow other human beings like zombies because they supposedly speak for God and kill anyone who disagrees with us.

Me: What a fucking idiot.
