SPECIAL ALERT! NBC to mock the Crucifixion of Christ

Dear (received via e-mail),

NBC, fresh from giving us the anti-Christian The Book of Daniel, has decided to hit back at the Christian community by presenting an episode of Will and Grace which mocks the crucifixion of Christ.

On the April 13 edition of NBC's Will and Grace, Britney Spears will appear as a Christian conservative sidekick to Sean Hayes' homosexual character, Jack, who hosts his own talk show.

Jack's fictional network, Out TV, is bought by a Christian TV network, leading to Spears contributing a cooking segment called "Cruci-fixin's." To further denigrate Christianity, NBC chose to air it the night before Good Friday.

NBC does not treat Jews, Muslims or other religions with such disrespect. Yet the network demonstrates a deep of hostility toward followers of Christ.

TAKE ACTION

I suppose we should boycott the entire Trinity Broadcasting Network as it sounds less tacky and disrespectful than half the stuff on there..

Who cares and who watches, it will do as well as the Book of Daniel. I urinate on them, they are like the Rats in congress who are beyond explanation.

Remember, mockery is to the left as logical argument is to the right. It is the core of the leftist method, since mockery is what unintelligent people use when they want to seem intelligent.

It's much easier to make jokes about the crucifixion than it is to contemplate the implications of the crucifixion, let alone articulate those implications to another person.

Who cares. If you don't want to watch the show (which you have probably never watched in the first place), then turn the channel. We need to loosen up a bit otherwise we're no better than the freak'in towel heads who want to destroy the western work because some newspaper printed a characture of Mohommad.

Not too long ago in American history the name of the show itslef would have been highly inflammatory as a deliberate insult to Christians, i.e., the theological argument over whether man is saved by exercise of his free will or by the grace of God.

That is lost on most today, but I dare is was not lost on those who chose the name for a show making light of homosexual promiscuity.

I thought Britney Spears had some sort of Christian faith. Did that go the way of her career too?

I think a lot of us are tired of "loosening up." It's time for them to give a little now.
