Fantastic Skit

Post by _Gazelam »

This was recently shared with me and I thought it was pretty amazing. Its a skit put on by an Evangelical church to a song by the band Lifehouse. Please watch (Its fairly short) and post a comment.

Moksha, last time I was home my Mom had that cartoon on the family refrigerator.

Gave me warm fuzzies. Kind of like I ate a microwaved Chia pet.

Groovy stuff.

I'm not gonna ask how you have a basis for that comparison. :)

Oh wait. You said you're not gonna ask.

Good call.

With 75% of the "bad" people in that being "dark skinned", and the tempted being white along with the Jesus dude, I'd think that was produced by Mormons.

Was the "bad" white girl the token white girl?

Sorry, but in my opinion, it was lame.

The same could be said of religion, a.k.a. cults.

Since the people who acted in it undoubtedly believed in what was portrayed I think reading a racist message into it is preposterous. I don't think they saw one.
