Jesus = Terrorist?

.

“The Christian Church overwhelmingly — there are exceptions — who choose to call Mohammed a terrorist. They could call Jesus a terrorist too. I mean, he was pretty tough on money lenders a time or two.”

Yes, I suppose driving merchants and money changers (Not money lenders, mind you! My bible tells me he dined with tax collectors and money lenders.) out of a house of worship is as horrible and evil as hijacking planes and crashing them into buildings, eh? (Link via instapundit. Oh, and someone else said it first. And sang it, too.)

He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,

yet he opened not his mouth;

like a lamb that is led to the slaughter,

and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent,

so he opened not his mouth.

Does that sound like a terrorist to you?

Star Trek Song Lyrics

.

Lest you think that Enterprise has the corniest theme song of any Star Trek series, remember that Alexander Courage’s theme for the original Star Trek also had lyrics, by Gene Roddenberry himself. Feel free to sing along:

“Beyond

The rim of the starlight

My love

Is wand’ring in star flight

I know he’ll find in star clustered reaches

Love, strange love a star woman teaches

“I know

His journey ends never

His Star Trek

Will go on forever

But tell him

While he wanders his starry sea

Remember

Remember me!”

Jupiter, No!

.

BAD Jupiter! BAD, BAD gas giant!

For the second time in a week, humanity watched in fear and awe as a mysterious arm, estimated to be some 3 million light years across, once again appeared to part the black fabric of space, point an angry finger directly at Jupiter, and shout “No!”
