These should stir things up:
Matthew, Mark, Luke, and www.maccabees.com?
Was Jesus a Libertarian, or was Pontius Pilate?
WWJF(reep), and what would be his Freepname?
Should JimRob be nominated as a patron saint? (Better than Saint Yahoo or Saint Jeeves. However Saint Gore nominations from a Tennessee web address have twice crashed the Vatican servers.)

Hang Ten, dude.

I did not know that! Thanks for your entire post. Do you think the nominations Gore received explains his decision to grow a beard??? Because I can't think of any other reason...

Ah, your theory on the beard makes much sense. I had originally just chalked it up to Naomi Wolf, a subliminal Unibomber fetish, and long afternoons in the park pondering Yorkshire terriers. Of course the Vatican server crashes are strictly underground rumors fom friends of uncles of cousins of sisters with their ears cupped to drinking glasses held against the walls of the catacombs.(Rome can be very tight-lipped about hacking incidents. Ever since that guy in the IBM commercial called the cops to report the server stolen...)

RE # 7:
Jesus wearing a digital watch? Digital watches hadn't been invented in his time! Like the Shroud of Turin this pitcher originates from a later date, sez this scientist.

Egads! You are so right! I have been duped!
