Here is a good article on the Resurgence about seeing Jesus for who he really is:

It goes along with the "Where is the wise man?" post I posted earlier.

Making God in our own image

That posting really disturbs me. Not because of the black Jesus, I'd actually seen that before. The part that disturbs me is that if you look in the background of the montage, half of the Jesus' (or is it Jesi when plural) or white. You'd think they would've stuck with one or the other.
I was also once in a ghetto grocery store and saw some black angels one time. That was crazy. Everybody knows that angels have blonde hair and blue eyes... That's not even my personification, I have brown hair and green eyes so don't play that "your own image stuff" on angels!
This has absolutely nothing to do with the previous posting, but I think I've pinpointed a great way to make some quick cash.
Have you noticed how susceptable fat people are to gimmicks? In the last 3 hours I've had 3 women talking to me about this "detox" plan that they're going on to lose weight. I'm sure this is just the latest diet fad that happens to be sweeping my office this week, but I'd like to get a piece of the action.
While nobody wants to hear that the most sustainable way for weight loss is a pretty radical thing called eating less and exercising... maybe we could disguise it a little... If we threw in some funky quirk that gave everyone chronic diahrea for the first couple of weeks for example. That way they'd lose all sorts of weight and we could say something like, "oh, that's all the toxins leaving your body." They'd lose all sorts of water weight immediately. That's where the diabolicalness of the plan kicks in. We also recommend that people eat smaller portions and walk at least 30 minutes a day.
If anyone knows of something earthy and maybe even organic that causes chronic diarhea please let me know. Pond water comes to mind first, but people would find that out too quickly. Maybe if we ground up earth worms and came up with a fancy name like "earthobite." Also, I'm pretty sure that you can sell anything if you say that it contains electrolytes... I have no idea what an electrolyte is, but I do know that people love them.
I think Cilantro is a natural laxative. So maybe we could make cilantro pills.
