Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish zombie who was his own father, can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove and evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree. Yeah!.....makes perfect sense!

I prefer this.

CHRISTIAN, n.
One who believes that the New Testament is a divinely inspired book admirably suited to the spiritual needs of his neighbor. One who follows the teachings of Christ in so far as they are not inconsistent with a life of sin.

I disagree. Jesus wasn't a zombie when He told us to symbolically eat His flesh. That happened later. *nod*

Disagree, a zombie is defined as having no brain activity. Presumably, Jesus' post ressurection state allowed Him to utilize such brain activity. Also, it was made clear that Jesus needed no sustainance after the Ressurection, everything I know (which is not specifically expert knowledge) suggests that zombies actually do need sustainance, and can;t fly... or walk on water... or create matter... but perhaps those are trivialities.

Perhaps when looking for a satyrically skewed, and intentionally 'stupid for the sake of comedy' explaination of Christianity, one could find this, however, it is in no way a reasonable explaination from a serious standpoint.

It has more than one.

Also, I feel it's greatly exaggerated and skewed towards a comical take, and it's not really that funny. For true comedy you should read the quote in my sig.

I do wonder how someone can agree/disagree with a joke.

Although, I mean I guess you could.

Grammar that's FUBAR, thus, I cannot agree.

He posted something similar, but that can't be a direct quote, too many grammar issues. Fass rarely makes mistakes and when he does he edits them instantaneously.

Not sure, since we're not holed up inside a zombie free protection zone.

It seems an accurate description to me, at least of a large portion of Christianity. So I agree.

My statistics lecturer told me to be wary of questions beginning with 'Do you agree', and her advice has proven useful.

But the question was "do you agree or disagree." Logic says that since those are the only two possibilities then one of them must be correct, therefore the whole statement is.

Like, "is it raining or not raining."

As per usual, it took a lunatic to show us the light.

Well, no. Logic would say that if the statement in question were a simple one, A or not A, but since the OP contains a number of different ideas, it is possible to agree with some of it (for instance, "Jewish") and disagree with other bits (like "zombie").

Again - so bloody what ? Yes, the tone is offensive, but that does not mean the contents is right or wrong.

If I call Peters mother a filthy whore I am being offensive and a jerk - but it is quite possible she really is a prostitute that ignores personal hygiene.
