When Jesus Is Present Where Jesus Isn’t Present

Last updated on: February 20, 2012 at 11:02 am By Zack Hunt

Did you ever see Slumdog Millionaire? It’s the Oscar winning film about a teenager from the Dhavari slum of Mumbai, India that (SPOILER ALERT) miraculously wins the Indian version of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?. Well, this weekend the National Geographic Channel ran a special called The Real Slumdogs. (Yes, I watch a lot of the National Geographic Channel.) The documentary is an indepth look at the real residents of the Dhavari slum featured in the movie. In a lot of ways,... Read more

Fortune Telling Envelopes

Last updated on: February 17, 2012 at 11:40 am By Zack Hunt

I received some great news yesterday. I’ve been accepted into Yale Divinity School! I’m humbled, excited, proud, nervous, and just about everything in between. But there’s a catch. Whether or not I am actually able to attend Yale, or any other school that I’ve applied for, is entirely dependent upon where my wife “matches” for her residency. This May my wife will graduate from medical school, which is awesome and I’m incredibly proud of her. However, that’s just... Read more

Whitney Houston, Barack Obama, & The Catholic Church

Last updated on: February 17, 2012 at 9:30 am By Zack Hunt

It’s been a while since we’ve posted anything from our old friend William Tapley, aka The Third Eagle of The Apocalypse. Apparently his appearances on Anderson Cooper’s Ridiculist and The Colbert Report tempered someone of his trademark zaniness. That’s not to say he hasn’t posted anything in the post couple of months, it just hasn’t reached that level of prophetic crazy needed to justify a post. Well, The Third Eagle seems to have gotten his grove back. In... Read more

Pat Robertson: Faith Healing Didn’t Work? Your Fault

I’ve wondered for a long time why faith healings don’t always work. Thank you Pat Robertson for finally explaining it to me. Read more

SeaWorld of Pain

Last updated on: February 16, 2012 at 11:47 am By Zack Hunt

This doesn’t really have anything to do with American Christianity. Although, technically it’s about oppression and Christians should speak up for the oppressed, so BOOM! Post justified! Anyway, this was on the Daily Show last night and, for me, it may be the most brilliant thing in the history of ever. Wyatt Cenac takes a look at PETA’s lawsuit against SeaWorld and the “enslavement” of 5 orcas. It’s absolutely perfect satire. Enjoy…. The Daily Show with Jon Stewart... Read more

Need To Do Some Evangelism? There’s An App For That….

Last updated on: February 16, 2012 at 10:48 am By Zack Hunt

If Jack Chick’s old school paper tracts don’t do it for you and you want to bring your street evangelism into the 21st century, then this app may be the thing for you. But be warned…..if you want to get serious about your evangelism it’s going to cost you. And we don’t me costly like your pride or even your time. We mean costly as in $.99 + $9.99 + $19.95 for all of the evangelism packets you’ll... Read more

Top 10 Things To Give Up For Lent 2012

Last updated on: February 15, 2012 at 8:30 am By Zack Hunt

It’s crunch time. Lent is only a week away and you need to find something to give up for 40 days. Last year we gave you our list of the top 10 things you should give up for Lent. It was more successful than we could have imagined: over 30,000 hits in 3 days and it reached the #1 result on Google for that topic (which is just crazy). So, we’ve decided to make it an annual thing.... Read more

Forgot About Valentine’s Day? Here’s What You Do…..

Last updated on: February 14, 2012 at 11:44 am By Zack Hunt

Today is Valentine’s Day. Personally, my wife and I choose to celebrate on the 15th of February. Why? Because all of the Valentine’s Day candy is half off! But if your significant other expects you to celebrate today and you somehow managed to forget that today is Valentine’s Day, fear not! We have your solution. You could rush out and buy overpriced chocolate and roses. Or you could desperately try to find a dinner reservation somewhere nice. (Good... Read more

Tribulation Survival Guide

Last updated on: February 14, 2012 at 8:30 am By Zack Hunt

In light of yesterday’s post on Doomsday Preppers I thought this would make a good followup. I know nothing about the author, apart from the author description on the website where the book is being sold. Apparently, he’s not your run of the mill crazy guy living in his basement. If the author bio is true, he was educated at Duke, holds a doctorate in education, and is a department head at the University of Kentucky. So there’s... Read more

Meet Jonathan Bell – The Screaming Televangelist

Last updated on: February 13, 2012 at 4:29 pm By Zack Hunt

This guy is amazing. His entire show is about 45 minutes long, but we decided to give you just the highlights. You’re welcome. Anyway, this guy rants on just about everything, literally. He goes from screaming about the Bible, to telling us to spank our children so they don’t become rapists, to his testimony about almost being murdered by satanists who wanted to turn babies into candles, and then he naturally wraps things up with the true story...
