That line always gave me the image of Jesus and the Apostles at the Last Supper, but there’s guys hanging by hooks in their mouths from the ceiling. Jesus is gnawing on a roast thigh while the Apostles look at him with VERY dubious expressions.

And I don’t click on unknown youtube links since that irritating rickrolling fad started.

Well, all I can say is that if I ever “rickroll” someone, I’m using that video. Thanks for the laugh, Weirddave!

It’s not Jesus that he was disrespecting. It’s a video of a very strange woman.

I like that, in the video itself, the title screen is:

“Ask Jesus to Come on Your Heart.”

Now THAT’s a money shot i’d like to see.

That was painful…very painful. I’d ask Jesus to sit on her throat to get her to shut up.

Is this woman serious, or just parody? Nowadays, it’s hard to tell.
