Westboro Baptist Better Have a Gahtdamb Seat!
Westboro Baptist is a boil on all of our collective asses. They’re to Christians what those Jim Crow cartoons from the 1920s are to Disney. We try to dust them under our shoe and act like we don’t know them. But like the roaches they are, they stay coming back. …
Nigerian People are Prayer Warriors and These Videos Have Me Howling
I’m getting ready for my trip to Nigeria all this week so I won’t have a chance to write a lotta posts. BUT foolery still surrounds me and I must share it with y’all. Us Nigerian people are a passionate lot, and we love us some Jesus (well, those who …
This Winter Weather is a Fool But This Prayer Has Me Cackling
To say this winter has been rough is like saying Idris Elba is a little bit handsome. NAWL! It’s a gross understatement! This has been the first time I’ve seriously thought about breaking up with Chicago via a post-it note by the night stand in the middle of the night. …
Whose Reverend is this Threatening Me in the Name of Jesus?
It is that time of the year again: when people use Martin Luther King Jr.’s image inappropriately for club flyers. MLK ain’t march to be the image of “Freaky Fridays” at the local disco. STAHP IT EVERYONE! I already wrote about this last year but more flyers have emerged for …
Tina Fey’s Prayer For Her Daughter is Hilarity
I am a HUGE fan of Tina Fey. She’s one of my sheroes (along with her BFF Amy Poehler). I wanna be their third wheel so bad. They’re the main reason I even feel like watching the Golden Globe Awards tonight. Last year, I read Tina’s book Bossypants and it’s …
Dear E! News, Lee Thompson Young’s Death and Yoruba “Religion” Link is Irresponsible
E! News is reporting that Lee Thompson Young’s suicide may have been result of his involvement with “Yoruba religion.” I’m reporting that they’re idiots. It’s pretty ballsy to insinuate this and it’s the biggest crock of bullshit. Methinks it demonizes Yoruba people as advocates for suicide. It’s irresponsible, full of bigotry and plays into the “Africans are barbaric” trope.
I Bet Jesus Ain’t Pleased with this Church’s $70,000 Gift Offering
My girl Dash Harris posted a picture on her Facebook account and I had to blog about it. Because it’s so ridiculous. SECURITY!!! There are just so many things wrong here. The pastor is turning 70 so the only way they deemed appropriate to celebrate his life is by giving him …
I Must Have Missed the Holy Book Signing
One of my longtime readers, Caroline, dropped a goodie on my Facebook wall and I shook my head so hard I sued myself for assault. Look: It says “signed copy.” *looks around* Ummmm who signed this Bible? Word on the street is that Jesus ain’t back yet so unless I …
Old White Folks Rapping For Jesus
You know? The internet is truly the Den of Iniquity. When I was sent the link of the video below, the moment I pressed play, I realized I shoulda just walked away. Because. For reasons. Just watch. *faints* Iunno if this is real or not but West Dubuque 2nd Church …
The Bible, As Told in 2053. Or Through Blogs
I was bored so I started thinking of what would happen if they came out with the new Bible in like 2053. Or maybe even today. How would the stories be told differently? How it would be covered by blogosphere and others. 2053 Bible is probably gon say Jonah got …
