Christ did not run from this pain; he welcomed it. His sacrifice was an act of will. In this crucifixion, Christ defeated his enemies. And this is what makes him a suitable savior for the Klingon as well as the human and all races.

If that isn’t sacrilege, then it just doesn’t exist.
There ARE no Klingons. They are a science fiction TV show invention.
People, GET A LIFE!

This is a solid evangelism site.
Clever!
We need more Christian apologetics utilizing the Comic frame.

Yet all Klingon battle-cruisers are dedicated to Durgath.

Nice post. Cool to see someone reaching out to the Sci-Fi crowd with evangelism and being clever enough really work out the the lingo for the TOS and other spin off’s true believers.
Hey Kevin pinged you. Thought this might interest you. Something new in the Sci-Fi universe.

I think Klingons have been ignored by the church for far to long.

You should hear the Sermon on the Mount, in the original Klingon.
Today is a good day to day [to self].
Humor aside, there is room for all at the foot of the cross.

A clever pop restatement of the blue collar, hard working Lord of Hosts, who protects children, heals the sick, brings a lash into a den of thieves and a sword at the end of time.
Not the last restatement, nor the first

but very startling and effective.
I like it.

Sincere condolences to all you 2 millimeter-wide Christians who are offended by this.
It's awesome. There's no other word.
If you don't think allegory and symbolism can be used to bring people closer to God, then you better throw your Bible away at the same time you condemn these SciFi evangelists.
Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.

You know, it strikes me that the Klingons would have made good Crusaders.
