But, luckily for him and other non-Christians -- they can always make a buck off my Lord and Savior, Jesus.
Soon, EVERY knee will bow.
Will Alan Keyes be in this one?
Its not that he portrays Jesus as black that would offend anyone (Frankly, I’m sure he he was a lot closer to black than the Irish looking portrayal in a lot of art, that’s for sure.) It will be the disrespect shown.
Last night they ran the South Park episode about the fear of mocking Mohamhead. They were more than a little rough on Jesus but that was the point, to show the hypocrisy.
Note to Sacha Cohen:
It is no longer “hip” or “avante garde” to mock Christians and Christianity.
If he really wanted to be “cutting edge” he should mock Islam, Mohamed and Muslims, but that would be deemed intolerant and racist.
They probably expect us Bible thumping hicks to riot as well.
Yawn...whatever.
Another way to look at it, besides the cowardice of the critics who refuse to attack Islam:
Christianity is the only threat to Satan’s power, and that’s why his minions target it almost exclusively.
Yep, if he was brave, he’d have a homosexual mohammed who preyed on little boys.
I don’t think color is important. I heard on the radio yesterday a group here in California is out now saying the Noah, Jesus, in fact all the Christian leaders were actually Muslim’s.
Being given up to a retrobate heart is the price..
Borat and Cohen.. fit that ticket, probably..
As well as some here(FR) no doubt..
So ... what’s the controversy? That Jesus is portrayed by a black guy? I just can’t seem to work up any outrage over it.
Of course, since this is a deliberate attack upon Christianity for the sake of publicizing a movie, we could always choose not to participate in the promotion of this movie. They want us to be offended. I, for one, choose not to play their game.
One of the best indicators of someone’s career jumping the shark is trying to bump up your box office receipts by being ‘even more shocking than before!!’.
If we did a hit piece movie to “wind up” the gays - do you think we’d get the pass and praise this fool’s going to get?
They call me white devil, black Jesus
Heaven closes, Hell freezes
Egos trippin’, scripts keep flippin’
Bloods keep bloodin’, crips keep crippin’
Time keeps slippin’ and I keep fallin’
I can’t see but I hear them callin’
Ballers ballin’, players playin’
Haters fightin’, righteous prayin’
Don’t forget Manhattan keep makin’, Brooklyn keep takin’
Shook ones keep shakin’, no time for fakin’
Know what I mean
I ain’t choppin’ no bars just risin’ like cream
If you diggin’ the scene, you feelin’ the vibe
Throw your hands in the air, scream are you alive
Singin’ na, na, na, na, na, na...
They call me black Jesus, white Moses
Heaven freezes, Hell closes
B-boy posin’, punk rock chicks
Kids are alright but I need my fix
If you diggin’ the mix, feelin’ the drugs
If you keepin it real, if you livin like thugs
I spit kisses and hugs like forty five slugs
Come back on the run and kiss my love gun
Got a look that’ll kill, voice that’ll carry
Half a dozen women that think I wanna marry
I got trouble on my mind, I’m refusin’ to lose
But still I gotta find someone to abuse
I’m gonna run spread the news, help spread the word
Jump the [hell] back and just act like you heard
Singin’ na, na, na, na, na, na...
They call me white devil, black Jesus
Heaven closes, Hell freezes
Black Jesus, white Moses
Heaven freezes, Hell closes
Singin’ na, na, na, na, na, na...
They call me white sinner, black martyr
Live wire, fire starter
Jungle brother, red neck cracker
Freak of nature, new world slacker
Sex junkie lookin’ for a dealer
You can play the leper girl and I can play the healer
[Stuff] is only gettin’ realer, baby haven’t you heard
That the bird, bird, bird, yes the bird is the word
It go one for the treble, two for the times
And three for my homies and four for the dimes
Singin’ lemons to the limes to the break of dawn
Excuse me—”Six minutes—Everlast, you on”
And it go on and on like a rolling stone
Baby, anywhere I lay my hat is my home
Singin’ na, na, na, na, na, na...
They call me white devil, black Jesus
Heaven closes, Hell freezes
Black Jesus, white Moses
Heaven freezes, Hell closes
Singin’ na, na, na, na, na, na...
—Everlast (if he’s good enough for the Rally Monkey, he’s good enough for you.)
Oh, how chic, courageous and progressive.
If he really wants shock treatment, he should make a movie about a black Sasha Cohen.
