Dancing Jesus video!

I know this is insulting to people of faith but since they have been voting to destroy America for the last 25 years, it's what they deserve.

Pat Buchcanan was on TV last week and he said the Evangelicals quit voting in the 1920's and they didn't vote again till 1980 when they came out for Raygun. Well lets' think about that. When Carter left office the debt was about 600 billion dollars NOW after 25 years of evangelicals voting it's 49 TRILLION DOLLARS WITH OBLIGATIONS! When Carter left office in 1980 the earth was fine and we had polar icecaps and glaciers but NOW after 25 years of evangelicals voting THEY ARE ALL MELTING! Some things just aren't fixable. Therefore, if we win the election this time, I suggest we start thinking of ways to make the evangelicals pay off the debt BY THEMSELVES and officially charge them with the crime of destroying the planet!

Since the evangelicals have been voting we have gone from the world's largest creditor to the worlds largest debtor. Since the evangelicals have been voting we have gone from a healthy planet to a dying planet.
Think about it. At the very least, they should admit that they are gullible IDIOTS, apologize to the human race and then STAY HOME FOR THE NEXT FIFTY YEARS so us evil secular progessives can TRY to fix the mess they got us in. It's the very least they can do.

(pardon the pun)

:rofl:

Gotcha.

Just as good as all those racist and sexist jokes.

Good going for offending all the Christian DUers.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:


Sort of like Dostoyevsky's Jesus only with more rhythm.

thanks

thanks

humor forum a few months back and was also 'bad' enough I sent a link to a relative who's faith is now born again evangelical. She laughed like a maniac - thought it was very funny too and then felt bad that she was laughing so hard.

It is one of my favorite videos ever - very well done.

I know... riots, riots

:rofl: Right on!

It is such a religion of compassion and consideration. This little darkness of mine, I'm gonna let it shine. "screw them too" that's a way better message than 'give peace a chance'.

end of problem.

and the political ones can play politics all they want without breaking the law.

the criminals they put in office ran up. the chinese can fuck themselves too.

:thumbsup:

This has been parked in my Favorites for awhile, I love it.

Where someone, claiming to be a Democrat, posts something designed to alienate and divide Democrats (who, by the way, are mostly Christian)?

Everyone else seemed to think it was hilarious.

Some of them seem to live for that.

Sad.

Very.

Yet, they'll also be the same ones who scream at people to Get Out The Vote.

All the while they're doing their best to shun some of the very voters they "say" they value.

then I'll have a little more sympathy for their tender sensibilities. Until then, they have to deal with "offensive" stuff just like the rest of us. Talk about divisive! The religious often seem to lack any sense that not everyone shares their belief in invisible deities and supernatural critters.

to go away and protect YOUR "sensitivities" and not vote??

Is that what you're wanting?

DU is only for atheists and, maybe, a few acceptable agnostics?

Do I understand you correctly?

What have I "shoved down your throat"? What have other DU Christians "shoved down your throad"?

Rather than rant, how 'bout answering these questions honestly?

According to the polls not very many. I'm grateful for the DU christians, if that makes you happy!

Wouldn't that be the prudent thing to do, if you REALLY want Dem votes?

Or would you rather just divide and conquer?

As I said to you, and you don't reply, aren't you glad that in the 50's and 60's, African Americans marching for justice didn't make sweeping statements about white Americans?

Isn't there something to learn from that?

What would "make me happy" is for you to get that you offended many Christian DUers, and to just apologize instead of trying to continue to defend it, and continue to slam DUers.

Try some bridge-building and some understanding.

That's how peace is made.

I'm just quoting christians.

I"m not one to call "TROLL!", because I've seen that used so badly and so divisively here, but .... this one I really gotta wonder.

Certainly badly worded, at least.

reinforces what I'm thinking. In fact, the WSJ Opinion Journal got a hold of one of his/her posts, and cherry-picked it to "demonstrate" how "elitist" Democrats/liberals are.

the whore street journal thinks anyway.

going all the way back before the 2004 election. I'm not a troll just a visionary.

You want we should all just leave?

Yanno, it's a damned good thing that black folk in the 50's and 60's were peaceful and mature enough to distinguish between white who were "on their side", and whites who were not.

You might give that some thought.

Happy now?

Yanno, I'm saving this so that when people here complain about low turnout, etc, I can show WHO are those who turn away some of us.

Good job.

I'm assuming you're one of the ten percent who votes dem, but then do I know.

And, look at the smears you've inspired with your words.

Even a death wish.

Nice.

Congrats on your ability to divide and conquer.

Good job.

And being a DUer YOU should be smarter than that. I'm not the one saying "Christians love Bush" I'm not the one saying "christians vote GOP" Christians are saying that. I'm not suppose to mention that because there are EXCEPTIONS?

As I said, aren't you glad that blacks marching in the 50's and 60's didn't make such sweeping statements?

And, yes, you made the sweeping statements.

Why can't you just apologize for that, and quit digging a deeper hole?

I just read mny entire post and the word ALL is only mentioned ONCE. ALL MELTING! Your confusing yourself with an iceberg.

weren't out to smear all white folk.

You might want to give that a bit of thought.

You're so busy being offended that you haven't even noticed the numbers. These are big problems we have now and they are not going away. You have to agree that somebody be held responsible for this mess. Just who, if not the evangelicals, would you blame this on? History will show that there is one group who sticks out more than anyone else. And NO It's not the gun nuts.

:kick: & R

I loved the original this was based on, but this was even better.

of faith?

REALLY?

Are you *sure* of that?

You want ALL of us to just leave the Democratic Party?

Hmmmm???!!!

right after the 2004 debacle. They are, by their own admission, the GOP's strongest voting block. If real christians are upset by these terms, they need to distinguish themselves from the fake christians by giving themselves new names.

And, do you know anything about Jim Wallis?

He's an evangelical.

Before smearing, it's a good idea to know who all you're including in that smear.

Some of us are your neighbors.

YOU do the distinguishing, rather than putting people on the defensive.

It's a good peaceful tactic to remember.

My aren't we touchy. Why don't you admit that if evangelical christians had stayed home in 2004, Kerry would be president. Any dem who wants to win should be PRAYING they stay home this year. I want to win and I know who in this country is screwing me up.

fewer votes for Kerry!

My my, aren't we ignorant.

rather have Jim Wallis write books. I would rather have christians like you banging other christians on the head to wake them up.

How do you know what I do?

How do you know who I've "banged on the head"???

Great assumptions.

Again, it's time to just apologize.

Churchgoing closely tied to voting pattern
http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2004-06-02-religion-gap_x.htm

By Susan Page, USA TODAY
Where will you spend Sunday morning? Will you go to church or Home Depot? Sing in the choir or play golf? Answer that question and you've given the most reliable demographic clue about your vote on Election Day.
Voters who say they go to church every week usually vote for Republicans. Those who go to church less often or not at all tend to vote Democratic.

Forget the gender gap. The "religion gap" is bigger, more powerful and growing. The divide isn't between Catholics and Protestants, Jews and Gentiles. Instead, on one side are those of many faiths who go to services, well, religiously: Catholics who attend Mass without fail, evangelical Christians and mainline Protestants who show up for church rain or shine, some Orthodox Jews. On the other side are those who attend religious services only occasionally or never.

The religion gap is the leading edge of the "culture war" that has polarized American politics, reshaped the coalitions that make up the Democratic and Republican parties and influenced the appeals their presidential candidates are making. The debate over same-sex marriage is expected to make it wider than ever this year. Gay rights, partial-birth abortion, definitions of patriotism and other "values" issues are likely to exacerbate the divide between the most observant and others.

Vote in 2000 by church attendance
Bush Gore
More than once a week 68% 32%
Once a week 58% 42%
Once or twice a month 41% 59%
A few times a year 40% 60%
Seldom 39% 61%
Never 35% 65%

Republicans target the most faithful for political conversion so aggressively that critics say they skirt the law. At the White House, President Bush has courted people of faith with his policies and language. They are a huge group: In 2000, one in four voters said they attended church every week.

Democrats are divided over whether to respond, and how. Presidential candidate John Kerry is taking some first steps to reach out to observant voters.

"Once social issues came to the forefront — abortion, gay rights, women's rights — it generated differences based on religious attendance," says John Green, a University of Akron political scientist who studies religion and politics. "More observant people tend to have more traditional morality, and they moved in a more conservative direction because of those issues."

I guess I'm just part of the "reality based" community!

Funny, I think he's capable of doing both.

voting to destroy America for the last 25 years, it's what they deserve."

Those are your words.

You really believe that's "peaceful"?

Yes, you have insulted many right here on DU, who not only vote Dem, but work their tails off for this party, and give lots of $$$.

An apology is in order.

I'll apologize if I'm WRONG! But the facts and the numbers say different. As long as they vote for the GOP in large numbers I'm going to bitch about it.

I may not believe that he was divine, but he was a spectular human being who was the closest thing to a radical leftist that I could ever imagine.

What's next, a hip-hoppin Ghandi?

to the teachings or memory of Gandhi. In reality, the EXACT opposite is true.

particularly when it came to Indians and Blacks. If he were alive, he'd probably be making his own hip hop videos. And they'd kick ass.

so WHAT.

This isn't a debate about what hip hop signifies. It was about the dichotomy of the person Ghandi, performing an energetic form of a particular dance....NOTHING ELSE...from which you made an erroneous and disgusting assumption, and pulled the race card.

you've just spewed out rascism in reference to my post in which I've described a particular dance form in relation to a particular historical figure.

Why is hip hop antithetical to Gandhi?

Now,explain your own narrow racist thinking that would lead you to assume that a member of DU would be referring to ANYTHING about the VALUE of hip hop or the culture it represents.

He was destroying the divine right doctrine. a well known communist idea. But that's all been fixed now with the GOP christians changing Jesus from the "Feed the poor, Prince of Peace", to Jesus the" War-mongering, greedy capitalist pig". If I was a christian, I would be really pissed about that. In fact, I would have preferred the dancing Jesus to be MUSCULAR, with short hair, holding money in one hand and a bomb in the other. But I didn't make the video so I don't get my way! Peace be with you.

I'm a skeptic with no beliefs in any religion at all.

If right wing crazies distort the historical Jesus, you believe we should remedy that by distorting him in a different way?

I see no value in that.

without the dancing Jesus video nobody would have paid attention.

I understand.

Peace:-)

Mother Teresa too. :)

:D

I almost spewed coffee all over myself.:7

:evilgrin:

Wonder if I'm missins some plug-in

and type in "jesus christ" and you'll get it.

As a lot of KC DU'ers know this is one of my favorite videos. I played it at evlbstrd's house for the gang at one of our after-meetup parties. Everyone loved it.

He has a blog too,
http://isbushantichrist.blogspot.com/

that is just so darkly funny.

Moderator consensus is to lock this. The original post framing this video link is inflammatory.

Thanks.
