Interestingly, here's a Youtube video where the Crazy Preacher and his wife are at UCF. Notice the 3:01 mark, where someone comments on Brother Micah's chubbiness

At 20 I feel like a bit of an underachiever, especially since I'm over 40. It makes me want to get a tatoo and dye my hair. And maybe try the anal sex.

I would much rather rot in hell sitting around having tea with the likes of Albert Einstein and Carl Sagan, than sitting in heaven with bible-thumping-holier-than-thou proselytizers.
Send me to hell in a handbasket, thank you very much. |

Double points for double peneration!
Except for being any religion (other than Catholic and atheist) and the stuff that doesn't require a sex change, I've done everything on the list too. Well, I don't have any ink yet. I think my cat came from Hell in the first place, so he'll be fine in the lower nine. |

Why isn't war, war for profit, genocide, killing your fellow man, woman, and post birth child not included in the sin brigade?

Blast, only 27. But then, I'm a guy. If we take it to appreciating girls showing their elbows and working, or (especially) showing cleavage, etc., I'm up to 34. Am I winning?

Pot Smoking - Humm... oh... what?... (hides stash quickly)... no... i'm just... you know... what??
Cigarette Smoking - Does "trying to quit count as non-smoking?" Alcohol Drinking - Is it supposed to be drank? I thought you were supposed to inject it in your heart... Anyway, I'm portuguese... so... Guitar Playing - Not my thing. Having a Tattoo - Not my thing. Showing Cleavage - Definetely not my thing. Showing Bellybuttons -Idem. Girls Showing Their Knees - Idem. Girls Showing Their Elbows - Idem. Girls Wearing Tight Pants - Idem. Girls Wearing Miniskirts - I love it. Being Blond - No. Being Fat - More like OBESE. "You pig! Oink oink, piggy!" - I tell myself in the mirror, after I throw up the greasy kiwi i have for lunch. Cursing - I'm not a sorcerer. Kissing on the Mouth before Marriage - Oh, come on. Holding Hands before Marriage - Idem. Groping Breast before Marriage - Idem. Having Premarital Sex - Premarital? What do you mean? Do people have sex after marriage? ![]() Masturbation - What? Since when is this a sin? Having Anal Sex - Oh, come on! Having Oral Sex - Oh, cooome ooonnnn! Being Homosexual - I reallly love to watch myself in the mirror... does that make me gay? Or just an insecure personality? Judging People - I really hate people who judge! Who the hell do they think they are? With their opinions and points of view... They should all be sent to Treblinka... and gay people as well. I mean, I have nothing against gay people but let's face it... who wants to see a live one? Alive... Nobody! Unless you're a fag! Are you a fag? Don't you know you're disrespecting Jesus Christ? You blasfemer! You sinner! You atheist! You will accept my doctrine of peace and tolerance even if for that I have to smack your head on the ground! ... No, I'm not judgemental. Being Selfish - That is MY question. Playing Sports - See Shrike's answer. (2 posts above) Women Working - I like her to be on on top of things. Keeps her busy. ![]() Watching BET - Not my thing. Watching MTV - Not my usual thing. Watching VH1 - Not my thing. Watching TNT - Not my thing. Associating With Hollywood - I'm an actor. My association with HW is simply non-existent. I'm an indie guy, I do it for the Arrrt!!! (Shreds a silent tear...) Listening to “Gangsta Rap”, Techno, Christian Bands, and Rock and Roll - I'm deaf. Thanks for the reminder. Believing in Evolution - What is there to "believe"? Being Catholic - Does imitating Marylin Manson's Bible Shredding on Christma's Eve when I was 12 count as non-catholic? Because from what I gather Marilyn Manson and Ozzy Osbourne are catholics... so... I don't know where I'm going with this one... and I could just erase the answer and start a new one... Yes... Yes, I could... Being Jewish - Nein. Being Buddhist - I'm more buddihst than the buddhists. Being Methodist - I stopped using it years ago. It was ruining my dentition. Being Protestant - I protest a lot. (OK, this was a cheesy one..) Being Mormon - NO! NOOOO! NOOOOOO!!!!! Ok? NOOO!! Being Muslim - See answer above? Copy-paste it to a Word file, then change the font size to 7500. Print it. Look at it for hours. Redo the process four times. There's my answer. Being Hindu - I smoke Hashish... thank Shiva and all that... ieeey... that's the highest amount of Hindu I can get. (Ahahah... highest... good double-entendre... i mean... what?... oh...) Being Agnostic - There's a lot of things I just don't know. Being Atheist - What's that?... Not believing in God? What's God? (hears the explanation. Laugh his ass off for 40 days and 40 nights.) Well, yes, I guess that makes an atheist, alright. Being a Woman - I'm lucky dreams don't count as actions. ![]() Being In a Sorority or Fraternity - I don't like other people. Owning a Pet - Yes, a lovely kitty. Sin, Have Sinned, or Plan on Sinning in the Future - I don't conceive sin. So, I guess that makes me a non-sinner. Humm... I wonder where Hunter S. Thompson, Mark Twain, Spalding Gray and Oscar Wilde wonder about? Heaven? Or hell?

This "reverend" could give lessons in intolerance and natural things to hate to the Puritans and Taliban!
What a miserable life he must lead, seeing all that hateful every place he looks! And people enjoying it, that must be the worst part of it! |

Curses, I have been outsinned.
Oh, right. I already had cursing checked off. I'll have to think of something more sinful to get back in the running. (Wanders off to try and figure out a way to "Associate with Hollywood".) |

Oh, okay. I never actually filled this out, and I'm home with a sprained foot.
Pot Smoking - Did not inhale. Does speed twice a day count? Probably not, since it's by prescription. ![]() Cigarette Smoking - Nope. Never. Alcohol Drinking - Not for years. (I wonder if this means currently or ever?) Guitar Playing - Yes. Not very well. Having a Tattoo - No. Showing Cleavage - Yeees.. it's been known to happen.... Showing Bellybuttons - This too... Girls Showing Their Knees - "" Girls Showing Their Elbows -"" Girls Wearing Tight Pants -"" Girls Wearing Miniskirts - "" Being Blond - Strawberry blonde. I think this counts. Being Fat - No. But does a lifelong obsession with dieting count? Well, it should. Cursing - Yes, usually in traffic. Kissing on the Mouth before Marriage - Yes Holding Hands before Marriage - Yes Groping Breast before Marriage - Yes Having Premarital Sex - Yes Masturbation - Oh, okay, yes Having Anal Sex - No, actually Having Oral Sex - Yes to that one Being Homosexual - This question is kind of limiting. Do you have to actually be straight-up and exclusively gay/lesbian in order to go to hell? Well, probably not, so yes to this one too. Judging People: Yes. But I'm always right. Being Selfish: Not a lot. But if this means EVER, then yes. Playing Sports - Yes. Women Working - Yes. Watching BET - yes Watching MTV - Yes-- recently and guiltily hooked on Jersey Shore Watching VH1 - Yes-- it's been a while, but there is no statute of limitations Watching TNT - Yes. Associating With Hollywood - I'm not sure if they mean just going to movies, associating with the sinister Hollywood cabal, or having your picture taken with a star on Hollywood Boulevard. Yes, no,and yes. Listening to “Gangsta Rap”, Techno, Christian Bands, and Rock and Roll - Yes to all. My Sirius/XM radio is permanently set on Area/BPM/Strobe. (Why Christian bands,I wonder? Although many of them would make anyone want to GO to hell in order to avoid listening to them.) Believing in Evolution - Yes. Gould/Eldridge's version, of course. Being Catholic - No, but I went to Catholic school. Being Jewish - No, but I grew up in a Jewish neighborhood. Being Buddhist - No, but when I was a baby, I lived in a Buddhist commune. Being Methodist - I taught Wesley Methodist Sunday school when I was 14. Being Protestant - I think that counts. Being Mormon - I was baptized Mormon. According to them, that will ALWAYS count. Being Muslim - No. Being Hindu - No. Being Agnostic - A very confusing word. Pass. Being Atheist - Pass. "Non-theist" is a better term. Being a Woman (they're still paying for Eve's sin) - Yep. Being In a Sorority or Fraternity -No. (Why this one??) Owning a Pet - Yes, two cats. Sin, Have Sinned, or Plan on Sinning in the Future. - Yes, because apparently this is impossible to avoid. That was 38. Apparently, I should reserve my room in hell right now. Someplace with a view of the lake of fire would be nice.
