The Brick Testament

If you aren’t familiar with the Brick Testament, you should be. Although not complete, it is hands down the best translation of the Bible. You don’t have to be a scholar or even a fan of the Bible to understand the Brick Testament and its beauty.

Think of it as the Lord’s Legos. Someone took the time to explain nearly 400 Bible stories via 4100+ illustrations made out of lego blocks. They do a great job representing the scripture they reference and do enough to mix in just a little bit of humor to an otherwise dry text.

Some of my favorite Brick Testament stories are:
Genesis 19:30-36 (aka The Seduction of Lot)
Genesis 22:1-14 (aka I was only kidding when I told you to kill your kid)
Deuteronomy 22:23-29 (aka The Rules of Rape)
Luke 12:51-52, Luke 14:26, Matthew 10:35 (aka Teachings of Jesus on Family)
Matthew 6:5-6, Matthew6:9-13 (aka Teachings of Jesus on Prayer)

What’s your favorite Brick Script? Do you know of a better Bible translation?

God’s Playing Field

If I was the supreme creator of the universe, I imagine I’d be rather bored. How many silly animals can you make before it gets old? The real question would be what the hell would you do to fill all that time. I’d probably just start crushing all creation with a giant fist or bust out the pillar of flames.

I found a religion-related game that might help you if you are bored and/or trying to procrastinate. Don’t expect to get infinite entertainment out of it though. I’m guessing you might find it amusing for one to five minutes.

It’s a lovely little flash game called God’s Playing Field. The premise is that you’ve stepped into heaven to have a chat with the old man and you bore the shit out of him apparently because he takes a nap. While he is sleeping, you step over to his G-Machine and pass a little time telling folks on Earth that their time is up. This game has 7+ million plays and has a positive rating. If you are looking for silly blasphemy, you’ll probably enjoy it for the couple of minutes. Game play is very limited (pick a weapon and click the mouse repeatedly) so I give it a “meh out of 10″ (see rating scale).

Effeminate Jesus Sings Everyone Is Jesus

The effeminate Jesus man has a lot of songs/videos posted on youtube. Most of them are not in english, which is a shame.

My two favorite english language releases of his are as follows:

I’m not sure if I understand this song, but the video is great. A weird guy wearing lipstick who likens himself to Jesus while his new age friends all jump around and play with soap suds.

Everyone is Jesus. What else can you say?

This guy is one of the ugliest women I’ve seen in a music video but you can’t argue with his message (especially since I can’t figure it out).
