I went over to a Super Bowl party tonight. I’d tell you my thoughts on the game, but apparently re-broadcasting, or any pictures, descriptions, or accounts of the game, without the express written consent of the National Football League, is strictly prohibited.
My friend Brian made chili seriously amazing chili. I couldn’t stop eating it. Now I feel like something’s going to burst out of my chest like in Alien. So, I’m going to take a break from studying for the quals to curl up with a bottle of Pepto-Bismol until this all blows over. Still, there is the very real chance, given my genetic make-up and family history, that I am currently having a heart attack.
So, with what may or may not be my dying breaths, I want to tell the world that I hate Christianity, because they keep doing shit like this:
That cost $3.01 million. That guy in there was Tim Tebow, who’s made something of a name for himself by being pretty and using makeup, effectively making him the Taylor Hanson of collegiate football. The ad was paid for by Focus on the Family, a non-profit, tax-exempt hate group which runs the gambit of all the common causes with which Christians poison our society. They are devoted to the suppression of individual liberties through a staunch anti-choice agenda, compounded with a decided anti-science philosophy via their alliance with the Discovery Institute.
Most heinous of all, Focus on the Family opposes the rights of people of all orientations to marry the ones they love. Read that again. They oppose people being in love, and anyone who opposes love is the enemy of Yellow Hat Man.
Focus on the Family begged for change to scare up $3.01 million, to tell people that abortion is bad. I beg to differ, case and point:

I wondered how many people starved tonight, because the Religious Right was neither: opting to keep Haitian food banks empty to keep the cable networks laden with their precious propaganda. I made a few calculations to see what exactly $3,010,000 can buy in this day in age:
At this point, August has already sent an angry letter out to be proofread before sending it to me. This is about when other Christians approach me and say: “You complain about how these ‘Christians’ act…but that’s not the ‘real Christianity’…” Everyone claims to have the real Christianity. Well, I offer a challenge to the “real Christians”. If you really love your neighbor, you’ll find a way to stop these people. Have your God use his magic if you need too. I thought I was a real Christian for a while. Then I remember that Jesus was a long-haired construction worker who shot his mouth off at every opportunity. If Christ were here today, he’d walk into your churches, break all your shit, and somehow weasel out of doing any jail time. He did it before, and allegedly, he’ll do it again.
Don’t try to save me. Save yourselves from yourselves.
I’m doing the Christians a favor by going to Hell. By going to Hell first, I’ll have the keg tapped by the time they all get there, so I’ll have worked out those first few cups of foam.

Of course you know that half the point you are trying to make is pretty retarded considering that in this country more Conservatives and Christians donate their time and money to charity than anyone else! Certainly more than silly little comics geeks with an axe to grind! That said, everyone should have a chance to marry the person they love. In my experience at least, most Christians I know agree with that. You should stick to stalking Rob Liefeld and leave the political and religious commentaries to the grown ups!

Thank you, other comic nerd with another axe to grind, for this insightful commentary. I suppose since Christians giving money to themselves counts a charity, they do, but I fail to see the point of this gesture, when the money could be used to feed the hungry, medicate the sick, clothe the naked, etc.

Poor lil fella! Did I hurt your feelings? You can make up for it by talking about doing keg stands or whatever else you commonly do while alone in your parent’s basement. Yes, there are many Christian charities. What of it? They benefit many people who aren’t Christians. For instance, Catholic Relief Services go places in the world that the UN won’t set foot in. And you don’t even have to listen to a sermon or get molested in order to get food, clothing, and medicine! I realize that being a bitter little fellow in pedo gear might seem like a great way to get back at the big bad Christians who gave you atomic wedgies in high school, but it sadly doesn’t qualify you to speak about the charitable contributions of, well, anybody. Have a Blessed Day!

Thanks for demonstrating sensitivity in our discussion. It goes a long way toward creating genuine dialogue and a sense that we are working toward a solution together without any hidden agendas.
