I am not making fun of religion per se....

I got to thinking about this after reading that there are possibly as many as 80,000 illegal aliens named Jesus in the US.

Does it say anywhere (in the Bible) that when Jesus returns, he will have the name Jesus? If so, How the hell will the real Jesus stand out from the crowd?

Maybe he should choose a more unique name, like Frankie?

Would you all bow to Frankie?

And furthermore, will Frankie be White? Black? Latino? Asian?

So you are telling me that if some Asian dude named Frankie tells you he is the son of God... You are going to follow him? B)

"Hey, drink this Sake flavored cool aide and I will meet you in the promised land."

^ Thats how you'll know... Unless this Asian dude called Frankie has an army of Angels then I dont think many people will be fooled :P hehe

And...................

Jesus is the english given name, his name is spelled in Hebrew Yeshua Hamashea.

WOOt

Okay, what if Frankie was a pilot with the Blue Angels?

I'm tellin ya.... Asian Frankie, the leader of the Blue Angels.... Coincidence?.... I THINK NOT!!!!
XD

^ Show me a link with an Asian guy called Frankie leading the Blue Angels oh and a can of "Sake flavored cool aide" in his hand, then ill believe ya! :P hehe

WOOt:
Since English is now the official international language for most of the world.... The son of God has to drop that (Kick his ass all through High School) name of Yeshua Hamashea and stick with Frankie.

Tg

Pls dont let yourself get unglued

God still loves u.

Lmao

Peace

So you want Jesus to be Frank about this? ;)

Jesus goes to Hollywood?

LOL.....

Frankie might have to get some sponsors....

It can cost a lot of money to lead the chosen to the promised land. I can see it now.... A chariot adorned with NASCAR style stickers....

Cheese-its of Nazareth

Jesus Chrysler

Fisher Price

Burning Busch

Yeah but thoose aliens are probubly mexican and they spell it like jesus but it sounds like jehoos or somthing like that.

As the ancient Greeks would say: "Hey, Zues!". (yesu bin yoseph.)

Jees...

You're on quite a tear lately. Do you think you could try some new material? Perhaps roasting Mohammad for a spell or even Krishna? Oh, about Budda? He seems pretty jolly and fat, an easy target for sight gags and such. Come on, try something new. :)

No one else says that *insert deity's name here* will come again. At least not that I know of.

And don't try to avoid this by trying to get on the offensive. This is an attack on what you know as Christianity and it's up to you to defend its internal structure. :)

Lol. I'm afraid to refer to Mohammed because those who depict Him are subject to beheading or some such fate as befitting the infidel dogs that they are. :S

The Fat Buddha, representing a smiling happy, tolerant Chinese monk whose belly is ripe for rubbing is not related to the actual Nepalese historical figure, Prince Siddhartha Gautama, (563–483 BCE), who was born into a life of aristocratic luxury, his rejection of which and subsequent realizations about Life and Suffering forming the foundations of the many forms of Buddhism.

Sorry if I have ever represented the figure of Christ as any kind of target. My objections would be better expressed targeting some of the people who represent themselves as His followers.

I can appreciate what Nyar said up there^. Some of us Christians also feel that way. They (those Nyar refers to) make the rest of us look bad.

@ Monica- TG's thread seems to be mainly tongue in cheek to me. I took it that way.

Rabban was merely noting that TG has been on a tear lately about the person of Jesus. I'm guessing Rabban feels there may be a purpose or goal in TG's postings. Maybe Rabban is right, maybe not. It really doesn't matter.

_{(In my opinion, TG does seem kinda hung up on Jesus.)}

No one is making an apologetic here, although it certainly can be done.

There was no question about who Jesus was in the thread, just a backhanded shot at Christianity. I've met people named Jesus. I didn't see any of them appear from the clouds with the angels, though. I didn't confuse them with the crucified and resurrected one.

I won't confuse Frankie with Him either. It's a goofy thread, and that's all it is. (IMO)

You screw with Mohammed, you screw with me , buddy! %)

I read TG's post as an attempt to stir the pot a little since he's bored. Must be a lull at work. So, I banter back a little and offer a challenge. As yet, nothing clever.

But for Monica, I say, "Umm, no.". She's says I can't go on the offensive and I say, "Sez who?". I don't need to defend anything. Honestly, Jesus never did such a thing. He just laid it out there for whoever wanted to pick it up. Monica's recently laid it down. Unfortunate, but its not keeping me up at nights. The Lord knows who are his and is able to draw them in when the time is right. Maybe she'll return or maybe she never was in the faith in the first place. The Christian commission is to spread the Good News, not make people believe it.

And in other news...

... B) Lol! Now I just have to get me one of those action figures. :P

^^^ Sorry, got my facts wrong. I need to do some research on that.

Hi all...

Settle down now.... This is all in good fun. No offense intended.

Yup, guilty as charged... I am a bit hung up on the Jesus/God thing. But only in this forum. My friends don't like to debate (unluckily for me) so this forum is my only outlet to vent/question my confusion/frustration/intruigue about others beliefs in God. Religion is a GREAT debate tool because since there are no solid answers on one side or the other, we can only postulate and counter-postulate. (Although the religious zealots most often think they are stating facts based solely on their beliefs.... Hence, you get muslim terrorists blowing themselves up to get in good with their god and they get 72 virgins for their trouble).

In addition, Religion is something that EVERYBODY can comment on. If I started a debate on Video Production and Comparisons of different Codecs for web delivery... I might get a few takers, but with none of the zeal of a good Religious debate.

This thread in particular though is strictly supposed to be funny. (Cheese-It's of Nazareth anyone?)

I do not believe there is a god for us to pray to and I find the obsessiveness of those who DO believe to be very, very interesting. I never mean to insult anyones beliefs, even if I am directly attacking those beliefs. It is all in the spirit of debate, and fun mental sparring.

As Rabby has pointed out a number of times, I don't always have my facts straight, but I do try.

So, sorry if I have stepped over the interest line with too many Jesus comments.....

But at least this thread was supposed to make you giggle instead of get inflamed.
:)

shut up. I know a lot of people.
