Yes, the LOLCats have struck again: not content with writing an entire programming language based (http://lolcode.com/), they're now planning to translate the entire Bible (http://www.lolcatbible.com/index.php/Main_Page) into 'LOLCat' speak. So far they've only done the first few chapters of Genesis but it's Wiki based so if you're really bored you can help. You might also enjoy this picture (http://ulc.net/forum/uploads/monthly_07_2007/post-3919-1184860842.jpg).

Seriously though, how much spare time do these people have?

This is madness! This is blasphemy!

I have a Klingon Bible. I try not to read from it during Sunday school though, just for clarity. ;)

I are your Lord! I offerz redempshun!

Awesome :p

Lolz.

And time for our prayers:

Our Father, who 0wnz heaven, j00 r0ck!
May all 0ur base someday be belong to you!
May j00 0wn earth just like j00 0wn heaven.
Give us this day our warez, mp3z, and pr0n through a phat pipe.
And cut us some slack when we act like n00b lamerz, just as we teach n00bz when they act lame on us.
Please don't give us root access on some poor d00d'z box when we're too pissed off to think about what's right and wrong, and if you could keep the fbi off our backs, we'd appreciate it.
For j00 0wn r00t on all our b0x3s 4ever and ever, 4m3n.

My Uncle brought a Bible back from Papua New Guinea, written in Pidgin English.

It's called the Gud Buk. :)

Also, I just read this gem:

http://newsbiscuit.com/article/the-bible-testament-30-leaked-on-the-internet-163

Pretty funny. :p Although the first page wasn't too impressive - maybe the revisions will be a bit more creative. ;)

This is madness! This is blasphemy!

incorrect.

this r blazfmy, kthnx, bai

This is madness! This is blasphemy!

Thiz be LOLCATZ!!!!


kthx bai!

Seriously though, how much spare time do these people have?

I was thinking the same thing. I'm not sure how long it would take to 'translate' the entire bible into Lolcat, but you'd think it would be easier and faster to simply teach them proper English - no translation necessary, then. *nod* :)

Im in ur holy bookz, makin it LOL wurthy.

This is madness! This is blasphemy!

This is funny.

This is madness! This is blasphemy!

agreed. how dare they take something as great and holy as lolcats, and aplly nonsense like the bible to it! The Flying Spaghetti Monster is outraged!

Seriously though, how much spare time do these people have?

..., he asked on the internet

Seriously though, how much spare time do these people have?About the same as the ones that wrote the bible?:p

..., he asked on the internet

ZING

Will they include pictures of cats being dressed up as Adam, Moses, and Jesus?

Seriously though, how much spare time do these people have?rather they do that and not create viruses and other cyber nasties.

This not only makes Baby Jesus cry, it makes God kill kittens just for the hell of it.

I approve.

Will they include pictures of cats being dressed up as Adam, Moses, and Jesus?

They'd better. :p

Although I still say it would be funnier if they translated it more directly. The whole Invisible Man thing doesn't work too well, given that God appears many times in the OT, as one example. ;)

Finally, a Bible that makes for an interesting read. ;)

*slaps* no ceiling. he's SKY CAT!

I think the root word is similar in some latin-based languages, to be fair. I'll have to check on that. :p

I am kinda proud of myself. I just translated the whole first chapter of John into lolcat from memory.

Genesis 1:31 is my favorite so far.

"And Invisible Man sawed that he is teh Min, and, Beholdt, teh good enouf for releaze as version 0.8a. kthx bai."

Now that I look at it more, I think the LoLble is more readable than the standard bible.

there is still smiley mis-use in there. Nope, not great.

Er...I started to read it, but it really wasn't that entertaining. I thought the first chapter of Genesis was hilarious, but after that, it looked like they were just trying to misspell stuff.

I mean, c'mon, "An' the invisible man rode his bike over the waters" is friggen hilarious.

But it seems like they weren't consistent with it.

I am starting work on Leviticus :)

Someone's done a wonderful job on Job (no pun intended):

1. In teh land of Uz wuz a man calded Job. Teh man was goodz, afraid of teh Invisible Man and evilz.

2. Teh man hadz seven sunz and tree doters,

3. And lots of sheepz and camlez and rinoceruseses and servnts, srsly.

4. His sunz tok turns mading cookies, and they all eated them.

5. And Job wuz liek "Oh noes! Wut if cookies were sin? Gota prey, just in cased."


6. Teh ayngles wented to seez Invisible Man, and Saitin wented 2.

7. Invisible Man axt Saitin, "Wher u wuz?" Saitin saied "Oh, hai. I'z wuz in ur earth, woking up and down uponz it."

8. Teh Invisible Man sayd "Has u seen mai servnt Job? He can has cheezburger cuz he laiks me."

9. "No wai!" sed Saitin.

10. "U just plyin favrits.

11. If u take his cheezburgers, he no laiks u no moar."

12. Then teh Invisible Man sed "Okai, u can take his bucket, but no hurtzing Job hissef." And then Saitin went awai.

Think how awesome the world would be if the original bible was like this.

1IN TEH BEGINNIN WUZ TEH WERD, AN' TEH WERD WUZ WIF GAWD, AN' TEH WERD WUZ GAWD.

2HE WUZ WIF GAWD IN DA BEGINNIN.

3THROUGH HIM ALL THINGS WUZ MADE; WITHOUT HIM NOTHIN WUZ MADE DAT HAS BEEN MADE.

4IN HIM WUZ LIFE, AN' DAT LIFE WUZ TEH LIGHT OV DOODZ.

5THE LIGHT SHINEZ IN DA DARKNES, BUT TEH DARKNES HAZ NOT UNDERSTOOD IT.


6THERE CAME MAN HOO WUZ SENT FRUM GAWD; HIS NAME WUZ JOHN.

7HE CAME AS WITNES 2 TESTIFY CONCERNIN DAT LIGHT, SO DAT THRU HIM ALL DOODZ MIGHT BELIEVE. 8 HE HIM WUZ NOT TEH LIGHT; HE CAME ONLY AS WITNES 2 TEH LIGHT.

9THE TRUE LIGHT DAT GIVEZ LIGHT 2 EVERY MAN WUZ COMIN INTO TEH WURLD.

10 HE WUZ IN DA WURLD, AN' THOUGH TEH WURLD WUZ MADE THRU HIM, TEH WURLD DID NOT RECOGNIZE HIM.

11 HE CAME 2 DAT WHICH WUZ HIS OWN, BUT HIS OWN DID NOT RECEIV HIM.

12 YET 2 ALL HOO RECEIVD HIM, 2 DOSE HOO BELIEVD IN HIS NAME, HE GAEV TEH RITE 2 BECOME CHILDREN OV GAWD— 13 CHILDREN BORN NOT OV NACHURAL DESSENT, NOR OV HOOMAN DECISHUN OR HUSBAND'S WILL, BUT BORN OV GAWD.

14 THE WERD BECAME FLESH AN' MADE HIS DWELLIN AMONG US. WE HAS SEEN HIS GLORY, TEH GLORY OV TEH WAN AN' ONLY, HOO CAME FRUM TEH FATHR, FULL OV GRACE AN' TRUTH.

15 JOHN TESTIFIEZ CONCERNIN HIM. HE CRIEZ OUT, SAYIN, "DIS WUZ HE OV WHOM I SAID, 'HE HOO COMEZ AFTR ME HAS SURPASD ME BECAUSE HE WUZ BEFORE ME.' "

16 FROM TEH FULLNES OV HIS GRACE WE HAS ALL RECEIVD WAN BLESIN AFTR ANOTHR.

17 FOR TEH LAW WUZ GIVEN THRU MOSEZ; GRACE AN' TRUTH CAME THRU JESUS CHRIST.

18 NO WAN HAS EVR SEEN GAWD, BUT GAWD TEH WAN AN' ONLY,HOO IZ AT TEH FATHR'S SIDE, HAS MADE HIM KNOWN.

still working on John, it occurs to me that I suck at lolcat.

Wait, that's not the beginning of Genesis? That whole Beginning thing made me think it was...


...says the former Hindu turned agnostic atheist...

nope it's the beginning of John that starts through the prophecy tracing back to the original prophets.

Genesis starts like

In the beginning God made the heavens and the earth and the earth was without form and void and there was darkness on the face of the deep and God's spirit moved over the waters

or something

*really doesn't have the whole Bible memorized yet*

I have a Klingon Bible.

That's been published? I heard a while back they were translating it, but I didn't know it had been completed.

So far I've just got the Klingon dictionary and the Klingon Hamlet.

I wish I could format a wiki page, I'm ready to work on Exodus.

Wiki editing is ridiculously easy. So easy that even I can manage it. You can find some info here (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/NSwiki:Page_editing).

My favourite Bible is still this one (http://www.thebricktestament.com/the_law/how_to_keep_the_law/dt06_06-07.html), though... ;)

I agree...let's send it out to space!

If they're being funded to do this I am never buying anything from that "parent" company again. These people should just get a damn real job.Like a company would ever fund this. Besides there are allot of companies that are actually trying to do evil things, you should try boycotting them instead of focusing on teh lolcats.

Collaborative donation of time has radically reduced the apparent cost of doing some things.

You don't need "a few people wasting a lot of time" - you need a lot of people wasting just a few minutes a day each.

And everyone has at least a few minutes to waste. Look at this place.

I wonder, however: why should cats speak like that? Me tnks catz r sumwot + intel tahn avrage n00bz.

they are speaking kitteh pidgin. it's not their native language, but a sort of stipped down lingua franca for specific types of comunication between peoples who speak different langagues. pidgins just always sound like that to people who know one of the languages that the pidgin is structured around.

Exodus 1 and 2 done.

Hmmm....

"'cuz Invisible Man luv teh wurld lotz, he gives only Invisible Son for evryone not wil die but can has long live that is loooooong."

(This is rough, but hey, it's my first attempt.)better than what I could come up with... but

GAWD LOVD TEH WURLD SO MUTCH DAT HE GAEV HIS ONLY SON DAT WHOEVR BELIEVEZ IN HIM WON'T BE TEH DEDZ BUT HAS EVERLASTIN LIFEU winz!

I feel sorry for the English language.

French isn't so bad. Hungarians have it harder.

"My hovercraft is full of eels."

I feel sorry for the English language.

why? do you feel sorry for English when people speak French?

Anyone wanna help with Revelations?

It would be a great laugh, what with 10 horned beasts, and whores of Babylon!

I feel sorry for the English language.Why it's not like it is some cognate entity, like the invisible hand, but a communicative tool that should be adapted as require to keep it useful in a changing society. This is English doing exactly like it should.

I prefer the Hawaiin pidgin English Bible:
Gospel according to John
But da angel guy say, “No scared. I come fo tell you guys Good Stuff From God dat goin make you guys an all da peopo stay good inside. Dis day inside King David's town, one boy wen born dat goin take you guys outa da bad kine stuff you stay doing. He da Christ Guy, da Spesho Guy God Wen Send. He da Boss." (Luke Tell Bout Jesus 2:10-11)

Pidgin English Bible = total pwnage.

However

"1. In teh land of Uz wuz a man calded Job. Teh man was goodz, afraid of teh Invisible Man and evilz.

2. Teh man hadz seven sunz and tree doters,

3. And lots of sheepz and camlez and rinoceruseses and servnts, srsly."

Is quite good, too.

I have a Klingon Bible. I try not to read from it during Sunday school though, just for clarity. ;)
You so rock.
I have the dictionary, and perhaps when i have the time, i'll use it in a linguistic pursuit.
:)

And time for our prayers:
And how can you *NOT* find happiness in such enriching text? ;)

Will they include pictures of cats being dressed up as Adam, Moses, and Jesus?

Oh mods no, that's be Jesus Cats Superstars?
*retch*

no, because this one is in the sky, not the cieling. He might be cieling cat's twin brother or something like that.

Who knows. Cats are oft into interbreeding.
More like the pantheistic relationships and such.

and he is watching you masturbate!

Sheesh, like that's some kind of accomplishment. It gives visual to the audio, though. Unless you're one of my neighbors, for whom it's the opposite.

There's of course, an insulated window 'twixt us. What with being up in the North and all.
*shrug*

Besides, i've already made a few albums worth of material.
My wife took my advice once to record me as i slept so i could explain the things i was talking about in my sleep, and so i could use them for song ideas and lyrics.
Mostly moaning and weird chirping noises so far, though.

Hmmm....

better than what I could come up with... but

U winz!

Yeah, Smunkee's is far better. Clear, succinct, and with terrific use of "TEH DEDZ."

I just think that GAWD needs to be changed to Invisible Man, as he has been called that throughout. Calling him GAWD all of a sudden could confuse people.

D'rat, i'm doing it too now! :mad:

*LMAO at the phrase "Klingon Bible"; will probably never draw breath again*

incorrect.

this r blazfmy, kthnx, bai

What does "kthnx" mean?

Hey, it's fun! I must say, despite my latent grammar nazism (I would come down upon anyone using 1337 or txt in any form of synchronous communication like a horde of squirrels on a bag of nuts), I occasionally like the Lolcats.

What does "1337" mean?

I feel sorry for the English language.

I do too; LOLcats should be declared a separate language from English IMNSVHO.

Is that REAL Pidgin or just urban ghetto slang? Because it looks like urban ghetto slang, like something "da bruthaz" would say.

Nah, check my sig for that.

What if we translated Jehovah as Invisible Man and YHWH as GAWD?

What does "kthnx" mean?

"Kay, thanks"

Elite.

We kinda have to confuse people and contradict ourselves if we're to create an authentic translation. =)

What if we translated Jehovah as Invisible Man and YHWH as GAWD?

firstly, those are two renditions of the same name for teh invisible man - you want yhwh and el/elohim. secondly, i somehow doubt that the kitteh translation is working from the hebrew.

Dammit, I knew that. :headbang:

Sure, but it's still plain to see which one's which in the English text, since they're respectively rendered as "God" and "the LORD."

... It's a kitty!

Good point. :D
