Atheist Goats, Polytheistic Elephants, and the Question of Cross-Species Breeding

My peregrinations around the internet led me to this site which, if they're serious, and I expect they are, I don't think that we'd get along well, seeing as how they'd want to shove Jesus down my throat, and I personally would rather wait till the third date, at least. Editor's Note: Thankfully it seems to be a spoof!

However, they have some of the best t-shirts for sale that I've ever seen, including my new personal favorite:

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Joining Mr. Gruff in the confused unwashed masses of the heathens is Habu, the polytheistic elephant who could save himself (herself?) a lot of headaches if s/he would just ask about the big JC.

I also noticed a strangely isolated bit of openmindedness among the starring characters on the website:

"Lambuel is a lamb who is devoted to God and knows that Jesus loves him a whole bunch! He likes going to Church, witnessing on the street corner to passersby, and having adventures in Faith with all his friends!"

and

"Ruby is a lioness who goes to the same Christian elementary school as Lambuel. She thinks Lambuel is cute and wants to marry him one day! She prays she will grow up to be a virtuous, God-fearing woman and earn Lambuel's Luv!"


Here's Lambuel. And here's Ruby

Now I may be as lax a Christian as they come, but even I know cross-species breeding is frowned upon. Also, it's spelled "love" not "luv". It's right there in the Bible.


An afterword/commentary between John and myself:
Donna: did you know the Christians condoned cross-species breeding?
John: i just can't believe you missed the Chuck Norris banner on the home page
Donna: that site is chockfull of wonders and treasures - I couldn't capture it all
John: Christianity should be in the home, and the dojo
Donna: Jesus is the only one who ever made Chuck Norris back down
John: a three way battle-royale between Jesus, Chuck Norris and the Hoff? Who would win?
Donna: today?
John: this very minute
Donna: today the Hoff would lose almost instantly b/c of all the drunken - well maybe he could do drunken boxing?
John: even sobriety can't beat the Hoff
Donna: but Chuck Norris and Jesus can
John: That was how the last Big Bang occurred
John: they all threw a punch at the same time
Donna: don't start that - the Hoff is already still all wound up about not getting credit for the Berlin Wall coming down
John: every German loves the Hoff, and that's what united them above all.
Donna: that and his piano key scarf

Too funny. "If you find an Atheist in your neighborhood,
TELL A PARENT OR PASTOR RIGHT AWAY!" What, so they can spray?

Christians loathe cross-species breeding...at least they used to. In the documentary "Hybrid", a 100-year-old farmer explains how he had to hide his cross-pollinated corn from the neighbors so they wouldn't burn him at the scarecrow or something.
