That's a bit of a problem with some of the religious people out there... They don't know how to take things with a grain of salt.
It has been reported that some victims of rape, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being raped. The only way that they realized they needed to WAKE UP was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to WAKE UP. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP

I can kinda see the protestor's point, though. If it had been transsexual Mohammed there would be hell to pay all round and probably some jail time for someone, but because it's Jesus it's acceptable as a form of legitimate entertainment. Then again, it is just entertainment, so get the hell over it. The only solution to this problem is to not give a damn.
I hope I am a good enough writer that some day dwarves kill me and drink my blood for wisdom.

Like Vort said, if it had been Muhammad, you know there would have been hell on the streets. That said, like Vort said again, everyone should just not give a damn

Geh. Thought Weird made this topic. Could be a Female Velocaraptor Jesus.
A breed of Scottish gays that believe the great Cross-martyr is a woman? BAH HA HA HA! Tyrannical Catholicism laughs in pride to know there are still
people worth executing publicly.

you prove just once that god is a velociraptor and you never hear the end of it...

@ what vort said: Just because other people are even more homophobic and irratable doesn't mean that its an excuse. They preech acceptance and stuff but when someone portrays jesus in a way that relates him to the gay/bi/transexual target audience it was made for they get all up in arms.
I think they need a nice big cup of 'practice what you preach' and shut up. Stupid contradictory religions... oh well, whatever, not like anything is going to happen, and not like this has anything to do with me anyway.

Protesters
Not a single damn protest has ever mattered in the last five decades. Ghandi's cultural and political revolution was the last one. Buddhist monks burning themselves alive in Vietnam is worthy of respect, but changed nothing. This changes nothing either.
That has more to do with the Muslims having the UK by the balls than the Christians getting persecuted, and you know it.
A lot to do over someone who may not have even existed...

I'm sure there has to be atleast one religion that isn't contradictory. It was for that so far unknown religion that i made the distinction.I spot a redundancy :o

Actually, Buddhism isn't a contradictory religion. One could argue it isn't a religion at all.
It has been reported that some victims of rape, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being raped.

Well if this was done in America, the Christians there would have kicked off like the Muslims would to here if someone made a transexual Muhammad

Because it doesn't universally have a god? That's bull, of course it's a religion. A religion is merely a set of beliefs confined into an organisation. The belief of a god is not paramount to the organisation's status as a religion.Actually, Buddhism isn't a contradictory religion. One could argue it isn't a religion at all.
By the by, different schisms of Buddhism have gods (or embodiments thereof), but no concept of God. These gods aren't even collective representations of God
Off topic: I know studying religions is often boring, but I absolutely adored learning about Buddhism. It's helped shape some of my beliefs, even influenced by a text book - eg. I have no concept of a 'self'. We are chariots - made up of wheels, axles, the main frame and the reins, yet collectively we call ourselves human. There is no such thing as an empirical 'I' - not even the brain is our self, commanding the body. In that sense we do not have thoughts, we do not have emotions - we are our thoughts, we are our emotions.
But yeah that's not relevant so I won't go further in-depth, just I admire Buddhism.

Same here, actually. It's very fascinating and it learns you to take a whole new look at everything

Why, only Scientology has the flair other religions don't have. Since not a single thing Ron Hubbard said is able to be proven, yet not able to be disproven, the keen chain of nonsense keeps it in tact.I'm sure there has to be atleast one religion that isn't contradictory.

Although I love bashing on Scientology, you do realize this is how all dogmas work, right?
