The Official Church of Jesussaves
It's been suggested, it's been tossed around as an idea--now here it is. I am officially forming the Official Church of Jesussaves, a place dedicated to the worship of our favorite little troll. Now don't get me wrong, I recognize this is going to be a big task. We'll need ministers, parishoners, a collection of his wise words, and of course a half dozen small animals for regular sacrifices...but I think we can do this.
I actually regularly do a search on his posts just to see whats new. This guy is great.

Heres some classics:
God has blessed America but America hs turned it's back on God. Its no wonder tha He let us get atacked on 911. Notice that the terrorists hit new yourk, and washington. New york is home to many gays abortionists feminists pagans and people who make fun of Jesus. Washington is home to the courts that make laws to take Jesus out of schools and let women kill their babies. God was angry and lifted his veil of protection. Pray that we find our way back to him and he restores it.
I can't undrstand why people hate the America. We do so much good for the owrld. We stopped hitler we stopped communism, we spread democrasy and freedom. We have the freeest and strongest country in the world and we use it to help people. Plus we are a christian nation and we spread the word of the lord. Why do you hate us?
Gay marriage should be banned. It says in the Bible that a man who lays with anothe man should be put to death. Insted librals want to let them get married. Letting gays get married is against gods law and violates freedom of religion. Gays are an abomination and god made Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve.
Blair said iran and siria have been sending terrorists into iraqu and that they are sponsers of terrorsim. This is more proof that moslems just want to spread their hate.
Jesus loves you. It's a fact. He dyed for you. Ask him to come in to your life and he will set you free.

This is the Third Commandment that God gave Moses ... Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain: for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
Jesus reconciles people with God. He gave his life as a sacrifice to God for the sins of humanity.
As for a person using the log-on name of Jesussaves, I hope the intentions of that writer are good, and I pray that he does not distort the words of Jesus Christ.
Being critical of people who have faith seems a bit silly. It only proves one part of what Jesus said about being a Christian: That others will ridicule Christians. Being a person who attackes Christians also shows a lack of compassion for people who express beliefs different than yours.
In any event, I recommend against mocking Christians or members of any other religion. This form of "humor" is not becoming. It is not funny. It shows no creativity. It just shows that you have a mean-spirited heart.
Long after the 10 Commandments, Jesus reminded people of some other laws. Love God with all of your mind, body, strength and spirit. Love your neighbor as you love yourself. In fact, even love your "enemies."

Odd that, I thought God was supposed to be vengeful to his enemies and cast all sinners into the fiery pit for all eternity.
It seems religious people can pick and choose when they want God to be a) kind or b ) nasty.
question for NS General Christians:
doesn't it bother you when somebody makes an internet handle like "Jesussaves"? i mean, the Savior is pretty much the cornerstone of your entire belief system, and here you have some random kid using the Savior as a forum login...doesn't that sort of cheapen it?

that's how religion is for most believers; they already have a moral code, a strong set of values, and a perspective on the universe, they just decide that (for whatever reason) they need to convince themselves that they are RIGHT and that an all-powerful being agrees with them. they pick whichever God and whichever pieces of a given religion they feel match up with the beliefs they already have. they don't have the strength of character to live by their values unless they can make up a really big bully who will beat up anybody who has different values.

Let me be a priest in the Church of Jesussaves please, I need the tax break!!
I have tried to start a religion on several occasions....
It doesnt work out unless you have some nice rituals, usually involving sex, drugs, booze or animals.(or all of the above!)
So why doesn't someone make up some rituals for us to follow?!
if i were a christian i guess it would piss me off. same as any religeons messiah
i honestly just feel it is really disrespectful to use a name like that. even though i feel the same way about Jesus as i do about Santa, i respect that many people have strong feelings about Jesus and i try not to be unnecessarily insulting. i know that if i believed strongly in Jesus i would be bothered by "Jesussaves" as a 'net handle, but i haven't yet seen any actual Christians complaining. don't know if that's because they don't care, or because they are too polite to want to bring it up.

I agree that being critical of those who have faith just for having faith is silly. However, I think that much of the flak that Christians get is the perception that they have no compassion or tolerance for those different from them.

As a Christian it's pretty safe to say that it doesn't cheapen Jesus. For me, that would take a lot more than an ignorant, intolerant kid who can't spell Muslim and Syria, but it does cheapen the kid. I don't know if he reasonably expects me to take him seriously with a login like that one, but I know that I the moment I see it I feel free to ignore whatever comes out of his mouth.
Or I would, if it wasn't so fun to laugh at.

As I said before, I have no intent of mocking him or christians. I don't think I've mentioned christians in the whole thread. Mocking has such a negative connotation. Jesussaves is cool. The kid really amuses me, as I used to be kinda like that. Yes, believe it or not, a fundementalist became a pagan. Go figure. Heh heh. But yes, yes I have a mean-spirited heart in general.
I suppose another part of my interest is in whether or not he's real. Every now and then my belief in him being real is kicked one way or the other. But that's the real fun of it!
Being critical of people who have faith seems a bit silly. It only proves one part of what Jesus said about being a Christian: That others will ridicule Christians.
okay, let me get this straight: somebody writes a story about a guy who walks on water, does magic tricks, and rises from the dead, but then puts in the caveat that other people probably will be critical of the story...so we all shouldn't be critical of the story because we might prove the author right?
sorry, not buying that one.
Being a person who attackes Christians also shows a lack of compassion for people who express beliefs different than yours.
i don't attack CHRISTIANS, i attack CHRISTIANITY. like how i don't attack racists, i attack racism. they are free to express beliefs different from mine, but i will endulge in my freedom to express my opinion about those beliefs. i will especially express my criticisms of their beliefs if i feel they have serious flaws in their logic (or an utter lack thereof), and even more especially if they use their possibly-flawed beliefs as a foundation for attempting legal action or social change.
In any event, I recommend against mocking Christians or members of any other religion. This form of "humor" is not becoming. It is not funny. It shows no creativity. It just shows that you have a mean-spirited heart.
you may not find it funny, but i think it can be hillarious. jokes about religion aren't automatically funny, because it's possible to make a crappy joke on virtually any subject, but they aren't automatically non-funny either. indeed, there is a great deal of quality humor that ridicules belief systems like religions, political parties, cultural excentricities, and any number of similar "in-group" modes.
you may not find something funny, but it's pointless of you to try to assert that something "isn't funny" in general; it's funny if even one person finds it so, because it's funny to that person, and i can promise you that there are PLENTY of people who find religious jokes very very funny. you can try to insult them all and call them mean-spirited if you want, but somehow i doubt they will care...i sure don't :).

America is in a crisis today. Children are being raised by sexy tv programms and godless secular humanist schoolls. We are seeing kids become pregnanat become killers and become drug adicts. Where are theyr mothers? I'll tell you where at work. Women at work are trying to prove that they are just like men. They are trying to buy the next suv or desiner dress. In the olden days women took care of children. Taut them wright from wrong. Read to them from the bible. Now kids are on there own. Some lezbians even want to raise kids.

Ok, I'm a Christian and I'm complaining. Jesussaves is giving the rest of us a bad name by being so ridiculously intolernant to the point of hilarity. I wish he would either A) Knock it the f-ck off or B) Consider mediating his opinions so the don't seem so rude and intolerant. I have to agree, he is funny though, but he's obviously completely missed the point of religion as do so many others.
