I’m-not-sure-if-this-is-satire-or-not-ping.

I don't know, I checked the source website, and I'm pretty sure Calvin grads dominate 2009 pastors draft is legit.

Personally, I’m going with “satire”. However, like all good satire, it’s close enough to believable to make you fall for it for a short time, *if* you’re jaded enough to think society has gone far enough around the bend.

Unfortunately, I happen to be just that jaded! :-)

Caller: I am calling and would like to confess my sins.

Operator: "You are VERY bad man."

This is almost s funny as the Bob and Tom bit where they have the outsourced porn line. In that one a guy with a thick Indian accent pretends he is a hot college coed.

No. That can’t be true.

Everyone who follows the sport KNOWS the Baptists have a stronger senior class this year.

Sorry, but people who worship with a remote control in hand, deserve this kind of devotion...

and maybe pull the head off a stray chicken

Is that a euphamism?

If so, I can relate.

90% of the merchandise in my local Mardal’s Christian store is made in China. I’m shopping for a chaplet/rosary and may have to spend a lot on-line, maybe from Ireland although in Ireland almost all the tourist trinkets were made in China. sigh.

Hey people,
Forget the middle man. Get on your knees and talk directly to God. I promise, He will listen.

I called one of those prayer lines.

First thing the guy said, (and I’m not making this up) is, “You need to get rid of the jelly fish.”

Freaked me out!

(How did he know?)
