Why Christianity is the One True Religion.

Pickles glow in the dark when you electrocute them.

So...Christianity is like being electrocuted with forks?

Is that guy for real? Tell me that's a parody of a conversion video, or whatever you'd call it. Please. Because if he's serious, I'm really not sure whether to laugh or run screaming.

What I got from this video: god sticks forks in our asses and electrocutes us with divine juice until smoke comes out and we start flashing in all red colors like an ambulance. I'm sure that pickle is singing hymns on the inside. And that other pickle is just green with envy.
Where do I sign up?

"Don't try this at home"

So, don't try Christianity at home, eh? ;-)

I think that demonstration is pretty accurate. The electricity messes that pickle up. It probably doesn't taste very good after it's been shocked. You've got a ruined pickle.

Just like Christianity. ;-)

Buzh?

Of course a pickle will glow if you electrocute it. Almost anything will glow if you electrocute it. Seriously, it's like the most random metaphor ever.

Aaaaand this is an object lesson as to one reason why I'm not a practicing Christian. The whole 'sincere whacko' thing just gets to me, yanno?

But yes, the pickle is like Christianity. You're forked, you have your ass in a sling, and then they want you to be full of energy and glow, even if it burns you out.

Seriously, how is this supposed to encourage anyone? We're all "ugly pickles"? But if we are Christians.... we smoke and ooze black goo as we fry inside from the electrified fork...

I'm convinced!....

That religion can make people stupid.

So Christians are full of acid? Also, dude, nice none-too-subtle way to call nonbelievers ugly.

The power of Jesus looks kind of painful. And probably makes quite a stink afterwards.

Not everything will glow. The pickle glows largely because of the sodium present in the salt. It's basically a crude sodium lamp.

Not to mention leaving that poor innocent pickle a dried-out husk of its former self.

Just FYI Christianity is nothing like this! If you want a weird old man to shove a pair of forks into you and give you electric shocks, why then you'll have to pay up like the rest of us!

*facepalm*

Just...no.

As far as I know, yes he is for real.

Laughing would be better. Run screaming would only delay the problem.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Your local church! Of course. I'm sure they'd be happy to have you as long as you accept Jesus into your heart.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Exactly! I'm not sure I'd want to eat an electrocuted pickle either. Especially after seeing it glow in the dark like that.

A candle might have been better and saved the poor pickle.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

I certainly want to be a glowing ugly pickle! =D

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

If they corrupt everything they touch, then yes, they might be.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

As I'm currently rather broke, I think I'll keep my money for something more useful.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Apparently very, very yes.

You get crazies in all factions...frankly, I'm not surprised.

It's my hope that somebody writing Avatar fanfiction will include something like this: an oblivious attempt to convert people to the one true element of fire.

On a non-fictional note, electrocuting pickles makes a lot more sense then trying to convince a crowd at SFSU that being gay is bad.
