  • Jumped the shark

    They have finally made the transition to pure conspiracy theory. They make statements like only crazy people <em>don’t</em> believe in UFOs. Christ is a distant second, third or fourth here.

  • Mucho Fun-o

    Pretty entertaining on its own but especially if your interested in exploring some of the gray areas of Christianity. Only suggestion is to avoid inviting that douche named Ryan back - Other than that grrrrreat.
