    "Christ Cracks Me Up"

    When life's gettin' ya down and your back's against the wall don't turn to
    booze or psychotherapy or pills; think "Fisher of Men."

    Did you miss your bus? Bird shit in your slurpy after another day of your
    finite, insignificant life-spark sucked-off by corporate overhead
    fluorescent lighting?

    Resist the urge to veer your rusty '87 Ford Escort into that oncoming
    Hummer. Actually, on second thought...no, don't do it; just get turned-on to
    the "Light-of-the-World."

    If people flip you off in traffic or wimpy emo-kids flick Marlboro butts at
    your forehead (maybe you have a five-head, Jesus, especially if you have
    five-head); I tell you what, you just pull your noggin out of that oven and
    reach for The Bible, my friend!

    It's the impossible, three-for-one, God-the-Father-Spirit-and-Son, divinely
    authorized, as well as inspired, biography of "He Who is Unknowable!"

    Maybe cost you twelve or fifteen bucks at Borders, depending on the version.

    Salvation lies within; it takes the form of comic relief via the
    Lamb-of-God's wacky one-liners and sheer, raving lunacy. Sure, he was King
    of the Jews, but more importantly, he was an incredibly cognitively
    dissonant King of the perfectly timed, but utterly unpredictable
    high-larious non-sequitor.

    For example, Jesus said:

    If any [man] come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and
    children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot
    be my disciple.

    -Luke 14:26, King James Version

    Zing!

    Wonder why we don't hear that gem quoted so much? A bit of a departure from
    "The Sermon on the Mount," huh?

    Now I understand Dubya's obsession. Sort of.

    Best,

    Chuck
