Found a great website that pokes fun at Christian culture, an oxymoron if ever there was one. There are some others out there but this one is pretty spot on.
Whether satirial or irreverent I cannot tell but it taps into the irrelevance of church that I've been feeling lately. Jesus has become just another product to sell and is packaged in pretty much the same style that marketers might try to sell us a car or a pre-packaged formula guaranteed to sell us the latest salvific berry from some exotic locale.
Personal faves:
Relevant churches (the inspiration for the title of the post)
Cheesy hair (a combination of 80s hairspray/highlights and desiring to look bad-ass without being able to to do so which, of course, makes them look like a 90s boy band hangover...).
Soul Patches (don't forget to read the end note of the post)
Inocuous Music (for which, see South Park episode 709)
Personally, I am sometimes much more comfortable "in the world" than I am in the often sanitized and insular world of the "church" today.
Seem to recall that Jesus spent more time with undesirables than he did with those who thought themselves desirable.
Besides, is saying "ass" or "damn" any worse than saying "freakin'"?
