It invokes the 34th proof of God's existence on http://www.godlessgeeks.com/LINKS/GodProof.htm  :V

Therefore, God exists!  :O

To quote Oolon Colluphid's source:

``I refuse to prove that I exist,'' says God, ``For proof denies faith, and without faith, I am nothing.''
``But,'' said man, ``the babelfish is a  dead giveaway, isn't it?  It proves you exist and therefore you don't.  QED.''
``Oh dear,'' says God, ``I hadn't thought of that,'' and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic.

You know, if I hadn't stopped to double check the phrasing of the original radio series, I would have gotten there first.

The phrasing is different in the book and the radio series.  In the book, it's this:

``But,'' says Man, ``The Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED.''

(The TV series agrees with the radio series.  And yes, I forgot the `so' before `therefore')

Oh the crazy things that get put on Ebay.   :rolleyes  I believe I've heard that someone put their soul up.  Forgot how much it went for...

Me, I'm a bit of an agnostic atheist (if such a thing can exist)...I've been brought up Christian, but I'm not the type to go on crusades against the evil and stuff like that.  Me and my family believe that also as long as nobody pushes religion on other people it's good to have a tolerance of others for their beliefs and their cultures.  I don't want to say I don't believe there's a god...just in case, you know.  But there's also reasonable doubt there.

Also, I think that depending on the region of the world you're in, there's a god or a plethera of them for that region...not just one...the Christian belief of creation is widely known but there are hundreds of other stories like that too.

I read somethin' about some celeb-woman trying to sell herself on eBay like a year ago. :U

Now, belief that god is manifesting him/her/itself in your cherrios or something is crazy enough. However, if you discover one of these manifestations, wouldn't it follow that you were intended to find it and keep it?
Aside from that, why would Jesus appear in food? Most of the time it's for no reason, it just looks like him. What, is he just making sure we still know how he looks? At least this manifestation says something, although what it says would appear to be "Aren't bunnies neat?" The guy needs to learn to stop spamming.
*I'm not an athiest, I just think god can laugh at himself.*

Quote from: Eibbor_N on December 13, 2006, 09:15:31 PMThere is no way that the guy selling that actually thinks that there's anything holy about the cheeto. Honestly, it's pretty weak even as Christ-image hoaxes go.

Worse than the pope hat chip (http://www.popehatchip.com/)?

(http://mithras.blogs.com/photos/uncategorized/fd_2.JPG)

Maybe weaker, but I think the pope hat wins for sheer overexposure.  He got $1209, mentions on Leno, and the chip has a song (http://www.popehatchip.com/Pope_Hat_Chip_song.mp3).

Post by: Elader Arkon on December 14, 2006, 02:38:29 AM
Personally, and as a devout Christian, I find this kind of stuff rather stupid and annoying. I think the chip looks a bit more like what Abraham Lincoln would look like if he grew his hair out long (it even looks like he's holding his hat...).

<rant>
When Jesus comes back, everyone will KNOW it. He doesn't do the "I'll appear to just one or two people throughout the centuries and tell them to do a wide variety of contradicting things...".
Sheesh, perhaps people should I dunno, READ what Jesus actually said before they look for him in places like FOOD? ditto for any other 'religious figures'. I heard of someone finding Mary's face in a grilled cheese sandwich once...
Grrrr. I'm not hating them, I'm just... angry at what they're doing. Yeah. That's it. ;)
</rant>

That song is teh awesomez btw.

What baffles me is why do people keep hanging on to the image of Jesus as a stereotypical caucasian with long straight hair, moustache and beard.

Have these artists seen Jesus to make a definitive portrait of him? What makes that image more Jesus-ey than a picture of a Black man? or a Chinese? Heck, a Martian?

And no, Im not even going to dignify anyone mentioning the shroud of Turin.

The rationale behind "Kill Buddha when you met him on the street." Feels apt in these situations.
