A farmer had a car accident. In court, the trucking company's lawyer was questioning Clyde.
"Didn't you say, at the scene of the accident 'I'm fine'?", asked the lawyer?
The farmer responded, "Well, I'll tell you what happened. I had just loaded my favorite mule, Bessie, into the..."
"I didn't ask for any details", the lawyer interrupted. "Just answer the question. Did you not say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine!'?"
The farmer said, "Well, I had just got Bessie into the trailer and I was driving down the road...."
The lawyer interrupted again and said, "Judge, I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the Highway Patrolman on the scene that he was just fine. Now several weeks after the accident he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply answer the question."
By this time, the Judge was fairly interested in the farmer's answer and said to the lawyer, "I'd like to hear what he has to say about his favorite mule, Bessie."
The farmer thanked the Judge and proceeded, "Well, as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite mule, into the trailer and was driving her down the highway when this huge semi-truck and trailer ran the stop sign and smacked my truck right in the side. I was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurting, real bad and didn't want to move. However, I could hear ole Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible shape just by her groans. Shortly after the accident, a Highway Patrolman came on the scene. He could hear Bessie moaning and groaning, so he went over to her. After he looked at her, he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes. Then the Patrolman came across the road, gun in hand, looked at me, and said 'How are you feeling?' Now, what the hell would you have said?"

Disclaimer:
Occasionally, owing to the deficiency of the English language, I have used he/him/his meaning he or she/him or her/his or her in order to avoid awkwardness of style.
He, him, and his are not intended as exclusively masculine pronouns. They may refer to either sex or to both sexes!

Lewis Black on creationism
Of course, his statement that Christians believe in a 7 day creation is obviously untrue and therefore his whole routine is bunk.

"You are metaphysicians. You can prove anything by metaphysics; and having done so, every metaphysician can prove every other metaphysician wrong--to his own satisfaction. You are anarchists in the realm of thought. And you are mad cosmos-makers. Each of you dwells in a cosmos of his own making, created out of his own fancies and desires. You do not know the real world in which you live, and your thinking has no place in the real world except in so far as it is phenomena of mental aberration." -The Iron Heel by Jack London

Yea, maybe it'll cut into the market for biblical action figures.
I think the website name speaks for itself...

So funny they offer both black and white versions. Why no Asian versions? Discrimination! ROFL!

Doubly funny because it seems to me that they don't even know what skin color Jesus had and they have to (inadequately) relate to a certain race in order to get their message across. I thought that the message was supposed to be universal or something. Silly me.

The real money is in the accessories. Does Jesus come with pontoons?

Re: Lewis Black on creationism
Why?
He can walk on water to begin with, right?
The question I'd be asking? Can the action figure make wine?
Granted, the wine would probably be shabby. That stuff is supposed to age, right*?
*Forget what I said. He's Jesus. He can do anything, duh! So bringing into the world aged wine is no problem.

Well, we're talking about the action figure, not the real Jesus.
Think of the possibilities:
- walk-on-water pontoons
- water-to-wine kit, red or white (non-toxic)
- draw-your-own stigmata (washable ink)
- feed-the-five-thousand lunch box
- high-impact plastic cross with velcro closures for thousands of crucifixions

Re: Lewis Black on creationism
Speaking of accessories, are the clothes of Adam and Eve removable? Or do those figures only come in 'knowing good and evil' form?

Re: Lewis Black on creationism
I hope the Jesus action figure comes with a D-I-Y manual on how to persuade 2000 porkies to do ANYTHING.

I was going to say that their fig-leaves were attached by velcro, but I already did my velcro joke.
