At Least "Decemberween" Was SUPPOSED To Sound Stupid

[bloodyrosemccoy]

Trying to decide which is more unintentionally hilarious: a musical stage adaptation of one of Beverly Lewis’s Amish pseudoporn novels (thanks, evilcresyluna!), or the nice Christian group trying to turn Halloween into “Jesus Ween.”

On the one hand, I’m picturing the glitteriest, Glee-est, vaudevilliest showstopping Amish musical, replete with tap dancing and chorus lines and pyrotechnics and music by either Andrew Lloyd Webber or the Gershwins.

On the other hand, JESUS WEEN.

You decide.

I actually know a few who won't even celebrate Christmas or Easter, on the logic that they're pagan holidays.

Are pagan cooties really that contagious that adding trees and eggs* to something makes it suddenly pagan?

There's a joke about egging someone's property buried in that.

* Well, and changing the date. I know my sister even learned in her Catholicism for Grown-ups classes the whole 'given what the shepherds were doing at the time, there's no way the Biblical account of Jesus's birth happened around winter solstice'.

Yeah, apparently so. Primitive Baptists are strange creatures. They don't do feast days, rituals or ceremonies (except perhaps ones of their own devising), or any of that. If it's even vaguely Catholic, they're against it. Except guilt, they're big on guilt.
