08.29.08 CHRISTIAN ROCKERS URGE RELIGULOUS BOYCOTT
Last night someone sent me this brilliant breakdown of Bill Maher’s Religulous (another video after the jump), made by a couple of goth Christians calling themselves The Rapture Right. The video is long, but definitely worth a watch if you’ve got the time. The first thing I noticed was that actual hardcore Christians are never this funny, unless they’re speaking in tongues. Not to mention that the guy who directed Religulous also directed Borat.
I did a little digging and found their MySpace page, which features their song “Heaven”, and the lyrics “They’ve got X-Ray glasses and hoverboards in heaven.” I too have always associated heaven with Back to the Future. And then there’s a little jam called “Jesus Touched Me” (Je-sus/touched more than my heart…). They also have a website with some pretty sweet flash graphics, and cartoons like the one I’ve included at right.
I talked to some people at Lionsgate who swore that as far as they knew, these guys aren’t affiliated with the movie, and that the studio already has a separate viral site and campaign of their own. It’s possible the Lionsgate people didn’t know, but there’s no way these guys are for real. They are pretty funny though.

” I talked to some people at Lionsgate…”
Woah, woah, woah Vince…your ass had me at “Lionsgate”.
*chodin hikes up his skirt*
Gerald “Uncle Jerry” Dingfondle, president of NAMBLA was quoted as saying “Boy-cot? boy caught? Either way, count me in.”
“The Rapture Right”
Take out the “tur” and you got yourselves a deal!
I do a segment called “Beat-Off Street” where I offer complete strangers a hand-job at a red light.
Tim Christian’s chin and Nic Cage’s forehead want to fuck in the worst way.
I didn’t think I could harbor anymore disdain for Christians or Emos. I was wrong. These douchebags make me want to kick a puppy off a bridge and slam a koala’s head in a car door.

Dude, these guys are obviously Borat characters.
Needs more Stryper.
This shit makes me want to name my first born child “Christ Puncher”.
Their game is pretty sweet
I know those guys are lampooning, but that doesn’t help do anything to satisfy the urge to carve expletives into their backs.
That Catholic, that don’t believe that shit is my new life mascot.
Yeah, its pretty obvious they are not really who they claim to be. But they are funny
I’m guessing by the comment about “HBO will give a show to any moron off the street” that these guys are doing an HBO series that’s going to premier later.
If he really wanted shock value, he would have a dildo for a microphone.
Dude, these guys are obviously Borat characters.
I know. I’m watching a rerun of Hour of Power with special guest Preacher, Emo Phillips. I should’ve clarified that.
Pauly, Marilyn Manson did that sooo long ago.
Eib, I want to bang you avatar in the worst way.
wow, you frisky little kitty, JHC!
Hey, I’d just like to say that the very first comment on this thread is from me, but in case you weren’t sure what a “skirt” was, please feel free to place your mouse over the hyperlink.
Eib, I want to elect your avatar, in the worst way possible.
With enough imagination, all of your avatars are NSFW.
Big ups to McCain’s handlers for hitching his wagon to the “Cougar Fad” that is in full swing right now. I shit you not, he just swung the popular vote by about, oh, all the hetero College males, give or take 10.
I just like the thought that, since she’s McCain’s running mate and he’s really fucking old, she has a much better chance of becoming the first female president than Hillary.
I’d be cool with that. The woman hunts and eats moose. Where do I sign up?
We had to do that shit back in ‘Nam. There weren’t a whole bunch of moose, so we went with villagers.
This isn’t fucking ‘Nam, Zero.
Well, I mean, not literally,
If I ran for President, you can bet your cock that a gay bodybuilder would be my running mate.
Dub is going to be pissed you called him a gay bodybuilder, Cho
Somewhere in a bunker in Minnesota, Ted Nugent just came in his pants.
back (slightly) on topic. I’m going to come right out and say it, I don’t think this shit (as well as most of the similar shit on Adult Swim) is funny.
GET OFF MY LAWN!
He lives in Waco, Texas now SS. At least part time. Still coming, though. A lot. Probably shooting his guns all over the back yard, shouting Whoooooooo yeeeee
New Up!
