oh man, this is the jesus i have been looking for!

what a straight shooter, with deity written all over him.

as funny as this video is, i have really wondered if this isn’t all that far from the “jesus” most people tote around in their head and heart.  i heard recently that only 1/4 of people poled in america would describe god/jesus as compassionate… yeah, that sucks.

our need to satarize jesus could be more indicative of our blindness to god’s workings than outright defiance of his character. i mean, im thinking more people are scared, lonely, and wouldn’t mind god showing up in their lives… as opposed to the actual antagonism we love to paste to the foreheads of atheists everywhere.

its like we are the teenage who cusses about and makes fun of his dad because of confusion about all the crap in life, the whole time hoping to be caught and proven wrong.  really, his behavior  points to a need for love, not fixing.

that said, blessings on their heads–all those who need god to do a radical move in their lives.  i guess i’ll throw myself in there too : )

god, do your miracles and re-establish your precedence for love.
