I've always been bewildered by the christian gift industry. There are just so many questions to ask. For starters, if you believe that Jesus died horribly on the cross for your sins, what is it about that fact that makes you want to put a damn cutesy, glittery cross on everything you own?
I'm not a christian, but let's pretend for a moment that I am. Jesus kept going on and on about helping the poor, giving up material possessions, etc. Just imagine if christians were as hard-core about these things as they are about, say, gay marriage or abortion? Do you think the world might be a different place?
Well, rather than doing as Jesus asked, and selling all their things, many christians would rather spend that orphan-feeding money on some sparkly cross flip-flops, a giant cross-adorned purse, or another decorative cross to add to their collection. I'm sure Jesus would be extra-super proud of them.
This blog will serve as a gallery of all the ways that christians choose to spend their money to honor their dear lord... you know, OTHER than the way in which he asked them to.
Have you observed any amazing holy tacky shit lately? Send it to me, I'll give ya credit.
