February 7, 2005 Seriously, there's no "Pestilence" in my copy of the bible. It's made pretty clear that the rider on the white horse is Christ. I find it interesting that the Christ of Revelations is more the warrior-messiah that the Jews were supposedly expecting to liberate them from Roman occupation. It's been said that those Christians who eagerly await the second coming do so because they feel that Jesus didn't get it right the first time. As blasphantastic as it may be, it's still a somewhat serious religious satire. Sort of. I mean, Jesus is a pirate! Man that's wacky! So, what if the God of the Bible where real, but was as much of a jerk as he is in the scriptures? All killing Moses for hitting a rock twice, and almost genociding his own people for worshipping a Canaanite god. Morality is considered objective in most religions, with God being the person who decides what morality is. But how would a person with a subjective morality deal with a command by God that he feels is morally repugnant? What would Jesus do? I like to think that Jesus would shoot God with a pirate gun. Vote for Pirate Jesus on TWC and WCL.
