Eternity: The Ultimate Experience of Fundamentalist Depravity

In fact, it seems more like Satan is serving a designated role. He's reading off the list of sins and punishing people for them. So wait, is Satan a prime evil entity that Jesus is doing everything he can to stop, or someone God hired to enforce his own laws?

That's the message I get from xtians' obsession with Satan. God needs Satan. In fact, the more I look at the Abrahamic religions, the more obvious it is that their God is actually a devil.

Why else are they so enthralled, and lost in an obviously evil world view, their minds short circuited with irrational double think?

This human sacrifice story the xtians promulgate is a dead give away when you think about it. Christ on a cross! It's Satanism!

Crazy.

I went to see it because I was expecting something completely different. As I mentioned in the OP, I thought it would be a gospel music performance or interpretive dance routine. I did NOT think it was going to be 2 hours worth of preaching and evangelizing intended to scare the audience with images of hell and Satan. What do they think we are, small children? And yes, there were children in the audience, some of whom were too paralyzed to react.

Out of curiosity, has anyone else been able to stomach the entire play? What did you think when they dragged out the political issues?

We should start a thread for parody songs based on Chick tracts set to famous Broadway tunes.

We did one ages ago about 9/11, but that got a bit tasteless IMO (I was one of the worst offenders). This subject is not nearly so touchy.

Probably have to be in the Humor Forum though...

Go right ahead. I would be one of the first to join in and parody fundy tracts in verse.

"I'm a gonna go to hell when I die
A'cause I believed the evolutionists' lies
A dun da dun dun dun da da dun dun dun."

I found the old 9/11 thread in the archive:

http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-63415.html

Be warned, some of us were pretty desensitized to 9/11 because of all the craziness around the fifth anniversary. Gravy and Gumboot did sterling work debunking the nutjobs of loose Change: Dylan Avery, and the other two whose names I can't recall.

Mercutio is a talented writer, his stuff is excellent. I don't know whatever happened to him...

I'm not sure I know enough about Chick to do that again.
 
I remember Mercutio, and we corresponded once via PM when I asked for help with my poetry in my early days. I hope he's doing okay.

Still, all the more reason for new poets to step forward and fill in the void.

Here's one of mine from that thread:

A Day In The Life (Of A Conspiracy Theorist)

I dread the Jews today, oh boy
Because I know I'll never make the grade
And though the Jews make me so mad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw a photograph
Of thousands dying in a fire
In a movie that was called Loose Change
A crowd of Truthers sat and stared
They'd seen it all before
Now I guess that I'm not sure of anything beyond my door...

I pwned a shill today oh boy
Told him how he loves George Bush's war
A crowd of JERFers turned away
but I just LOL'D a lot
At least I'm not a 'bot

I'd love to learn to con...

Woke up, fell out of bed,
pulled a bong and lost my head
Found my way upstairs and dropped a tab,
And looking up I noticed I was great
Found my coke and kicked my cat
made a post in seconds flat
found my way downstairs and had a smoke,
Avery spoke and I went into a dream....

I dread the Jews today oh boy
Four thousand stayed away from work that day
And though the Jews were all at home
I had to count them all
Now I know how many Jews it takes to fill a trading floor...

I'd love to learn to con...

Apologies to the Beatles. (Especially the dead ones)

I think this still the best one of these parody things that I've done. lots of others did excellent work as well. I see Jhunter and LashL in there a few times...

Ah, late 2007. That was when I joined the forums and posted "MST3K Presents: Loose Change" which was written by me and Crow (though he didn't join until this year). We riffed the entirety of Loose Change 2nd Edition. Fun times.

To steer this back on topic though, I have to ask again, has anyone else been able to stomach the rest of this play?
 
Frozenwolf150 said:
The aforementioned fat-mouthed pastor said that nobody was to leave the room under any circumstances while the play is in progress, and I wasn't sure what would happen if we tried.

I have discretely walked out of live performances before.

I cannot begin to tell you how much noise and commotion I would make if I were to walk out of a performance after I was told that leaving was forbidden.
