12/09/2004: "Three-of-a-Kind"
Hopefully, this'll be the last piece about religion that I'll write for a
while. To be honest (which I promise never to be again), I'm getting a
little bored with the subject. Add to that the fact that I've got a ton of
work to do on the Patriots Against Senator Santorum web site, so
I'm hoping to post some stuff here that I can also use over there. What?
Well, screw you, too.
Shortly after the chick-flick The Passion of The Christ was
released MTV decided to investigate the controversy surrounding the movie
by sending a Born-Again Christian, a Jew, and a Muslim (All in their late
teens or early twenties) to review/endure it. A Christian, a Jew, and a
Muslim all walk into a movie theater…
Predictably, the Christian came out pissed off, and the Jewish kid wanted
his money back. Surprisingly, the Muslin (a young woman) was bawling her
eyes out. "I feel so bad about what they [read "the Jews"] did to Jesus."
What no one at MTV (because it's MTV) failed to point out is that Muslims
do not believe that Jesus was crucified. They also have a prohibition
against portraying divine beings or Prophets in art or on film. In other
words, this chick was doubly full of shit.
Few Americans have read the Quran. Did you know that the Virgin Mary is
mentioned, by name, more times in the Quran than in the Bible? Most
Christians are unaware of this. Just as most Muslims seem either unaware
of, or unwilling to discuss, Mohammed's nine-year-old wife.
What's amazing to me are the Christians who claim that Muslims,
Christians, and Jews do not worship the same God or pen creepy "'Religion
of Peace', my ass" rants. These are the same people who get pissed off
when Atheists mention the Crusades, The Inquisition, or the Salem Witch
Trials.
Christians used to aim their religious ire at the Jews, until they decided
that in order for Jesus' Second Coming to take place (which they assure us
will be happening any day now ) Israel must not only exist, but must
also be brimming with Jews.
What these Christians fail to mention is that if their interpretation of a
2,000 year-old book of dietary laws is correct, then 99.9% of the Jews
living in Israel will be killed during the Tribulation. The few lawyers,
diamond merchants, and Jackie Mason fan club members who survive will be
converted to Christianity. So if you think that the crowds of Christmas
shoppers are bad now...
Muslims and Jews need each other for target practice.
Christians, Muslims, and Jews not only need each other - the deserve
each other.
