(On a thread about a new reality show called "Make me a Christian", which "broadcast in a three-part series, asks the participants to be mentored by four pastors from a variety of backgrounds – Anglican, Catholic, Evangelical, and Pentecostal – as they attempt to live like Christians, an effort that runs in stark contrast to many of the participants' backgrounds.
The 13 volunteers who will make the effort include a tattooed militant atheist biker, a man who converted from Christianity to Islam, a lesbian schoolteacher, a lap-dancing witch with a lust for expensive shoes, a middle-class yuppie couple that can't find time to spend with their children and a party animal who claims he's slept with over 150 women.")

Except that according to Christianity, if any of these people accept Jesus as his or he savior, he or she would no longer be a "pig". I guess you don't like that part, do you?
"A washed pig is still a pig."
So you are saying that Jesus's death was not enough to cleanse the sin from these people?
You don't even believe in your own religion. You're just a jerk that likes to condemn others.
See you in hell, buddy.
((Oh and Buzzardhut was the one that banned me from RR. I feel pretty special now.))
Damn, Buzzardhut is so fucking stupid he doesn't even get the point of his own fucking religion. It's a religion that is so simplistic that any idiot can grasp it (and many, many idiots DO grasp it, fervently ...) and yet this fucknut doesn't get it.
This gets my vote for Stupid Fundie Moment of the Day.
"A washed pig is still a pig."
That's what we've been saying all along, about YOU. Oink oink, little christian piggies.
True to all "reality" TV shows, the producers will choose the worst possible people from each section to use them as examples to paint the rest of us as assholes. Feh. At risk of sounding like a fundie, I hate television.
Oh, and Buzzardhut? Go and fornicate yourself.
A tattooed militant atheist biker? Do they also have a buddhist jazz-playing mexican/polish plumber with a bum leg and glasses?
Also, I'll only watch if participants have to stone a heretic at some point.
So they're going to make all these cool people (except for the yuppies) stop doing anything fun, turn off their brains, shove a phone pole up their asses, wear lots of polyester, decide they hate everyone who's not just like them, and beg an invisible flying undead guy to violate the laws of physics to punish those they now dislike?
Good luck with that. Can Flavor Flav do a cameo?
Wow!!, so much time wasted in Jesus, missionaries, workshops............apparently, religion and moral is genetic.
The show is hilarious, actually (it's on Channel 4 in the UK). The main pastor is a full-on fundamentalist who believes in demons and told the manwhore he would have AIDS by 30 if he didn't stop sinning.
Personally, I want to see the pastors turn on each other. I mean, you have a complete fundy, a Anglican woman, and a Catholic - isn't that just asking for trouble?
"Repent sinners! Turn to the light of Jesus, and know glory!"
"Fine, okay, I'll do it."
"Well...uh...you're still a filthy sinner! Begone, sinner!"
And this is one of the higher members of the team saying this, and -defeating the larger purpose of the religion-!
Not quite as pathetically ironic as Mrs. Kellie's ringing endorsement of Women's prohibition from teaching and leading, but it's on the podium.
I thought you people wanted to convert others to your religion? I mean, if I converted to a religion expecting to be accepted by a large community and to be "saved", I'd seriously reconsider it if they started calling me a pig.
Can't be a real show, not one of those people have any reason to listen to preachers from any faiths. The pastors themselves couldn't live "as they attempt to live like Christians"
as that suggests as the Bible teaches.
If they did they'd stone the Atheist and Lesbian, Take the couple's children and molest them and sit in awe of the womanizer (or the womanizer, who's probably a liar, would just say he's seen the light)
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
