And many false prophets shall rise, and shall seduce many.

Thought you'd get a kick out of da banana!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Comfort

Born ethnically half-Jewish (via his mother), Comfort was raised with next to no religious experience; in his words: "I went through life without any Christian instruction at all. I think I went to church about three times in about twenty years. I hated it. I found it an insult to my intellect.

He became a Christian on April 25, 1972, "... at 4:00 A.M. in the morning," at the age of twenty-two[2] after looking at a banana and noticing how easily it fit into his mouth. He then began using his banana (named "The Atheist's Worst Nightmare") as a preaching tool, teaching thousands.

Laugh if you want, but the man comes well recommended:

Comfort's ministry has been commended by several evangelical leaders, including Franklin Graham, Josh McDowell, Dr. D. James Kennedy, Bill Gothard, David Wilkerson, Joni Eareckson Tada [1]. He has written for Billy Graham's Decision magazine and Bill Bright's Worldwide Challenge. His literature is used by the Moody Bible Institute, Leighton Ford Ministries, Campus Crusade for Christ, Institute in Basic Life Principles, and the Institute for Scientific & Biblical Research. He has also written roughly fifty books and is a regular platform speaker at Southern Baptist State Conferences. His videos were seen by over 30,000 pastors in 1992, and he has spoken in more than 700 churches from most denominations.[7]
