Well in ending 2006, I’m hosting the annual Rahab (Christian Whore) Awards. I think Craig Gross said it best when he said, “If Satan’s a Pimp, Don’t be his Hoe.”

This award goes toward the best public display by a prominent Christian to sell out/whore out to the world. By their actions they are saying, I love you God, but my integrity can be bought for a price.

The Nominations:

A. Joel Osteen for “Your Best Life Now” Board Game. Ummm wow. It almost speaks for itself. Reminds me of the Prayer of Jabez CD! 

B. Me - As someone once said (in the comments below) “one mans sell out is another man’s angry rantings.”Touche’!  Very true, so I’m placing myself, now, on this list between Osteen and the blonde. So I’m in good company! Bonus points for coming up with a critical awards nominations list in the first place.

C. Jessica Simpson-  My Daddy was a youth pastor, but he likes flaunting what God gave me for cash! Bonus points for having a daddy pimp you out!

D. Veggie Tales- Big Idea productions gets bought (Phil Vicher, creator is out) and bye bye go the Christian morals for Saturday mornings on NBC.

E. Us- for fueling a christian marketing industry that uses our faith for making boat loads of money! It’s no different from the commercialized world, it just looks nicer. Bonus points: we killed Christmas. Jesus who? Forget that - where are my presents!

Please add any write in’s to the comment bar below.

Is this an angry rant? Well, blogging is my therapy.

All mourn the loss of the Yellow Wiggle, Greg [I have no idea what his last name is]! He’s stepping down from the most successful entertainment group in Australia. Nicole Kidman was #2 as a paid entertainer to the Wiggles in 2005!

He’s stepping down due to health problems. And I’ll say that the Wiggles won’t ever be the same (or that’s what my kids tell me).

This is a simple game. Each week I’ll display a scene from the Bible featuring Legos First to guess wins! I’ll keep a cumulative score going and the winner will receive a prize after a few months (it will be a REAL prize and I’ll ship it out to you wherever you are!) So post your answer in the comments box.

So guess! Win!

 (And for bonus nerd points, put down the scripture reference)

For last weeks contest go here.

Oh and if anyone is wondering [Ben Huge] the game will end at the end of the year. The person with the most wins… wins! The prize will be of actual value (gift cert. or something of the like). So play and win!

 Totals:

Jamie:2

Jesse: 2

Bonnie: 1
Chris: 1
Stac: 1

After this week there are only two left! Prizes will be awarded in January!
