[Retired barber, tired of hearing about Kosher salt, decides to market Christian salt]
Godlewski said his salt, packaged in containers bearing bright red crosses, has at least as much flavor and beneficial minerals as kosher salt - and it's for a good cause.
"The fact is, it helps Christians and Christian charities," he said. "This is about keeping Christianity in front of the public so that it doesn't die. I want to keep Christianity on the table, in the household, however I can do it."

Ummm... Hey "Joe" you do know that Kosher salt these days has little to anything to do with being jewish, right? In fact, the term is "Koshering Salt" to be exact - large flake salt which sticks to meat longer due to its shape allowing further processing. It usually has LESS minerals in it, in that it usually contains none of the required Iodine of table salt. Chefs use it a lot due to those two facts - nothing to throw off the taste and the salt doesn't fall off the meat with the juices.
"Koshering" meat is a whole process, which these days has little to do with being jewish as well... But to make it simple for you, putting kosher salt on your meat won't make you catch the "Jew."
Unfortunately, VERY VERY unfortunately, I don't think that Christianity is any danger of dying right now.
And Joe, have you checked all your other food items? Seen how many have that little circled K on them? You're gonna have to start your own manufacturing company if you want to put only "Christian" food on the table.
Don't worry. If Christianity dies, just wait three days.
Yes, I think I'll buy your salt because I just don't have enough constant reminders from The Neverending Godfomercial that is Evangelical Christianity. Between all the cable channels, the endless references, both overt and oblique in television shows, political speeches, and sporting events, and the ceaseless yammering about abortion, gay rights, prayer in school, etc., ad. nauseum, I failed to recognize the awful truth that Christianity was dying. Quick Tinkerbell, pass the salt!
" ... I want to keep Christianity on the table ..."
"This is my body, take of it, and eat do I need salt? Taste this, Judas."
@Riftoff; 'Je$u$ saves.'
But Moses invests.
How's this for an easy money making scheme. Just take normal Table Salt. Label some of it Kosher Salt, some Christian Salt, Halal Salt and for the Atheist/Agnostic market label the rest Table salt. Everyone's happy. I mean how is anyone going to tell the difference between Kosher salt and any other.
"This is about keeping Christianity in front of the public so that it doesn't die. "
You do know that the more salt you add to the Earth, the less like it is that you'll grow anything, right?
Salt, or halite, may be a variety of colors, or colorless, often white, but its streak is always white. Its hardness is 2, its composition is NaCl, and it forms cubic crystals. It dissolves quickly in cold water, and, because it is so soft, feels greasy when handled.
White greasers. Could be Christian rednecks.
To those saying this isn't fundie. Kosher salt has nothing to do with Jews except they probably started it. I have kosher salt in my kitchen because I found out the hard way that table salt just doesn't cut it when it calls for kosher.
It's like kosher pickles, it has more to do with the processing than with whose eating them.
Godlewski is probably just repackaging Windsor salt and marking it up 500%
So what happens to this cause if I put the Christian salt and, I guess, evil secular pepper in Goddess and Horned God salt-and-pepper shakers before placing them on my table?
(No, I don't have those and don't even know if they exist, but I'm wishing now.)
I followed it to the website selling it, apparently it's sea salt. Not a bad choice, though probably not useful for all the same things as kosher salt. At least it doesn't seem to be just repackaged Mortons.
Godlewski, sorry to burst your bubble, but your "Christian" salt is still kosher salt. All salt is kosher. When salt is marketed as kosher, it is referring to its variety, not the fact that it is permissible under Jewish dietary laws.
And yet another dumb fucker who lives under a rock. If you think xtianity is not adequately represented in this country, you have some problems with reality. By the way, is your salt blessed? Or do you just harvest it from dead Jews?
I had this idea a while ago that I would put a patent on salt. Then no one can call it salt unless they paid me money.
I think this guy is beating me to the fruition of my idea.
Maybe I need to make Atheist Salt (tm).
Christianity is under Ass-sault. Use Christian Salt to defend yourself from Jewish Zombies! Yes, we are pulling that out of our arse. Taste our new Christian salt for yourself, and see if you don't agree!
@ Ionakana
Not entirely true - any salt can be kosher, but iodized salt is not, because the iodine comes from non-kosher sources (like shellfish). Same thing with wine...the sulfites used for clarifying most varieties aren't kosher.
Personally, I prefer sel gris and other varieties of sea salt.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
