Love Kev’s press whoring! I wonder if this is a subtle reference to the SModcast where Kev and Scott talked about switching religions to worship the ancient Norse gods? Who wouldn’t want to be hauled off to that big beer hall in the sky by a bunch of half naked chicks!
Fred Phelps and WBC are just trying to get people to attack them or deny them permits so they can sue. The best thing to do is ignore them… but mocking them works pretty well, too.
Did you know that Catholic is one of the main branches of the Christian religion. They also believe in God. Please do some research before making an idiot out of yourself.
Last time I checked, Catholics DO follow Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, thereby qualifying them as “Christians.” So sorry to burst your little bubble there.
Or are you implying that some Christian denominations are somehow “better” than others, or more valid? If so… apparently you must have been sick the day they taught “judge not lest ye be judged” in Sunday School.
Again, it depends on the person. If they have professed with their mouths and believe in their hearts that Jesus is Lord and Saviour who died for them and rose again… then they are Christian. There are quite a few fakes who don’t really believe, you know.
Catholics kinda invented the word “Christian”, they came first out of all “Christian” religions because they were the ones who converted from Judiasm to worship Jesus, hence CHRISTians, dumbass
“Catholics kinda invented the word ‘Christian’”, wow…..It’s even in the Bible that the Antiochian government first came up with the term Christian. Roman Catholicism as it is seen today did not even start until the beginning of the Middle Ages (400AD+), before that it was just the persecuted minority known as Christians or followers of the Way.
Uh, no. Dear Gourd, no. Read about the Nicene Convention–Catholics were the most prolific early Christians, but were not the first, nor the ones who named the faith. In fact, the only reason the Catholics did so well so early on was they managed to convert the Roman emperor–all the other sects were still killed en masse, so there were more Catholics early on. The Gnostics and several other factions predated them.
Acts 11:26, states “…in Antioch the disciples were first called Christians.” Whereas the term “Catholic” came into use for the first time in 107 AD, referring to a sect of Christians.
While technically true, I think it’s more common today for Christian to simply apply to non-Catholic Christians, as the term Protestant really isn’t used all that much anymore. What’s more, in my experience it seems that Catholics prefer being called Catholics as opposed to Christians. I can understand why. I mean, nobody wants to be mistaken for a Mormon, am I right?
Well, I’m Catholic and I don’t mind being called Christian, but I prefer Catholic, just as I’m sure Mormons prefer being called Mormons than just Christian.
You make very good points.
The Christian ‘god’, especially in the OT, is one of the most vile creatures in all of fiction. It deserves nothing but mockery, including your completely backward moral sense. “Smutty god mocking” isn’t a pejorative to thinking people.
Catholicism is a sect of Christianity. Actually, it and Orthodoxy are the original Christian churches.
Everything else is a recent development. If you are Evangelical or one of the newer religions born in the US, it’s a tad hysterical that you would think yourself ‘more Christian’ than someone else.
Especially given the fact that most of the modern (read: irritating, loud) US Christian sects came from a failed doomsday cult.
1) Kevin is straight.
2) They are counter protesting the WBC (the group that protests soldier funerals with “thank god for IEDs” and “thank god for dead soldiers” and “god hates America” and so on). If opposing them means you are an “anti-Christian liberal,” then everyone should be … and basically is already (hint* Virtually every non-WBC Christian opposes them).
Its funny you say “anti-Christian liberal…” because he is protesting against the Westboro Baptist protesters… The same people who protest against gays, Jews, funerals of fallen soldiers and anything else that isn’t Christian… This is a win because Kevin Smith isn’t an ass like you.
My other post apparently got deleted in the mod-queue or something.
Long story short, I went into geek mode about how that’s Captain Jean-Luc Picard from the show Star Trek: TNG and Patrick Stewart (the guy who played Picard) also played the part of Professor X in X-Men.
Did that guy on the right really refer to Leviticus? As if Christians actually follow all the rules in a book that doesn’t even apply to our faith. It’s sad the lengths so-called Christians go to when twisting a population of people into a fake sin.
Probably referring to the Jewish custom regarding mixed fibers in clothes.
For the record, it was a cultural thing meant to set them apart as a nation, not a moral dictate. Kind of the way you don’t wear the opposing team’s colors to the home game.
As was the dictate, in the same book, against homosexual behavior – it was to help distinguish the Israelites from, for instance, the Caananites, who apparently were a bit more open-minded.
The point is, however, that the people who rail against homosexuality because of the Bible proudly proclaim that they believe *every word in it to be the literal truth*, yet they gad about in mixed-fiber clothing and refuse to take slaves from neighboring nations…
Kevin is protesting the Westburo Baptist Church, the “god hates F*gs,” “god hates America,” “thank god for IEDs,” “thank god for dead soldiers,” etc people. I’m sure there are all kinds of ridiculous biblical quotes nearby.
I’d say Michael Moore is more of an obnoxious douche; Kevin Smith just likes sticking up for the underdogs and the socially downtrodden. Being able to use his notoriety is just an added bonus.
Pretty sure that’s Malcolm on the left. And I think the Thor is a reference to one of his SMods where him and Scott talk about switching religions to ancient norse…
I’m an athorist, I don’t believe in Thor. The Invisible Pink Unicorn hates homophobes though, and She knows what’s what because She is so powerful She can be invisible AND pink at the same time. Just FYI.
Oh, and seriously people, you DON’T want to find out what she does to homophobes. Let’s just remember she is a Unicorn, and that although she is both Invisible and Pink, her horn you can’t ignore…
Just as a side note, Catholics were actually the first organized Christian church. Just wanted to take a break from the downward spiral. Please feel free to continue being d-bags. Cheers!
The guy holding the Leviticus sign is a fail too. Jews still follow the Mosaic laws, but Christians don’t. But the disapproval of gay relationships is repeated in the new testament as well. That’s why conservative Christians still speak against it.
Peter’s vision, in Acts, merely made it okay to eat treyf – the rest of the Law was supposed to be untouched. Try reading *all* of the Bible, not just the parts your preacher recommends…
And honestly, who the **** is Paul to come in, claim to be a tax collector who “saw the light,” and practically take over the Christian religion from anybody with any ACTUAL authority?
Paul has no more moral authority than… Jimmy Swaggart or Oral Roberts.
The Anti-Gay group members are douchbags, sad to see the pro gay groups taking up their tactics. Anyone want to join me for the “I don’t give a f**k rally” It will be at the local bar of your choosing, held virtually at any time. Hoist your second beverage of choice to “Not giving a f**k” and the meeting is complete.
I think we’re all missing the big picture here… THOR IS STRAIGHT! Thor is in a relationship with Sif and his counter-part (Donald Blake) is in a relationship with Jane Foster. I think this is a fail!
I worship God, and I’m willing to bet I’m smarter than you are.
Not that it has any bearing whatsoever on any conversation. Your ego is out of check. Your intellectual superiority complex rivals the moral superiority complex of the most brazen Sunday morning televangelist.
Not all believers are stupid and fortunately we know that not all Atheists are a**holes.
This is complete and total win all the way around. Ya’ll know Thor was hung like a damned pony. Gods of that Era were serious BAMFs. Not that Jehovah isn’t, I mean I’d probably pick him over Thor in a fist fight. The thing is, I seriously doubt either one would give a crap about whether or not two dudes got their freak on either way.
I would like to point out that it’s not just the old testament that condemns homosexuality. There are parts of the New Testament that condemn it as well. If you read Romans, it’s like the first thing you come across. Also, while the Catholic Church proclaims itself to be bible following, much of their doctrine is heretical, with claims that the Pope is God, and above the angels. They also claim to have the authority to change the laws set down in the bible, such as changing the day of worship from the 7th day sabbath that the Jews still follow to the 1st day of the week, Sunday, which draws obvious parallels to other, non-christian worshiping groups, such as Sun worshipers. Just saying.
Let’s see here… Marvel’s movie Thor and comic Thor are both straight and have straight friends… the mythological Thor was straight and had straight friends… the original Thor, King of Ancient Germany was straight and had straight friends…
Anybody who mocks those Westboro hate-mongers are a total win in my book! Its too bad that Jason Mewes wasn’t along…I bet they could’ve had some real fun then… ^_^
Oh, and its actually the FSM that hates the haters… Be touched by HIS noodly appendage, arrr!
kevin smith is my hero. this is why.
Love Kev’s press whoring! I wonder if this is a subtle reference to the SModcast where Kev and Scott talked about switching religions to worship the ancient Norse gods? Who wouldn’t want to be hauled off to that big beer hall in the sky by a bunch of half naked chicks!
I think this is one of the counter-protests to the Westboro Baptist Church’s protests of gays. I love Kevin Smith. He’s hilarious.
WBC can go to hell!
Fred Phelps and WBC are just trying to get people to attack them or deny them permits so they can sue. The best thing to do is ignore them… but mocking them works pretty well, too.
anti-Christian liberal media fa ggots
Yeah… aren’t they swell?
kevin smith is a catholic NOT A CHRISTIAN so i would expect nothing esle from him and his smutty god mocking films
Yeah, Dogma was awesome! I’m sure he’d be glad to know you watched it.
Did you know that Catholic is one of the main branches of the Christian religion. They also believe in God. Please do some research before making an idiot out of yourself.
It depends on the person that is Catholic. If they meet the requirements Jesus put in the Bible, or they are just calling themselves ‘Christian’.
Last time I checked, Catholics DO follow Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, thereby qualifying them as “Christians.” So sorry to burst your little bubble there.
Or are you implying that some Christian denominations are somehow “better” than others, or more valid? If so… apparently you must have been sick the day they taught “judge not lest ye be judged” in Sunday School.

u suck
You don’t consider Catholics a subset of Christians? Cause they are …
I was going to go that route but figured playing dumb would be more fun.

WP88—wow! you’re just as much of an a$$ as the WBC peeps! Good luck with that
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/catholicism
Look I can post links too!
Thing is, mine is more reputable than yours. Definition of Catholicism is the practice of Catholic Christianity.
God doesn’t exist.
Yay, a troll. Snore.
you, fine sir, just made my day.
Truth.
You get protestants who separate Christians and Catholics, yup.
You also get really dumb people.
While technically true, I think it’s more common today for Christian to simply apply to non-Catholic Christians, as the term Protestant really isn’t used all that much anymore.

Well, although religion can be bad at times, having ‘faith’ in something is a very powerful thing. Faith is sometimes the only thing people have.
If you notice, religious people who have cancer seem to last longer then the ones that are whining about how God hates them. Hmmm…
Fail. Both people in your example belive in an imaginary friend. But thanks for making other people’s point.
And such lovely lovely hate from a pathetic douchebag.
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone bucko.
And that’s how you spot an american
Ummmm… Catholics are Christians…
catholic is a branch of Christianity so you just contradicted yourself
Catholicism is a sect of Christianity. Actually, it and Orthodoxy are the original Christian churches.

Thank you John! I was wondering when someone would point that out!
1) Kevin is straight.
2) They are counter protesting the WBC (the group that protests soldier funerals with “thank god for IEDs” and “thank god for dead soldiers” and “god hates America” and so on). If opposing them means you are an “anti-Christian liberal,” then everyone should be … and basically is already (hint* Virtually every non-WBC Christian opposes them).
Anti-Christian? I think you mean anti-anythingthatdoesn’tacceptourlifestyle
Just ignore him!
You’re thinking of homosexuals… It’s a common mistake
Goodness me! Did someone jam a stick up your ass or are you this lovely all the time…
Its funny you say “anti-Christian liberal…” because he is protesting against the Westboro Baptist protesters… The same people who protest against gays, Jews, funerals of fallen soldiers and anything else that isn’t Christian… This is a win because Kevin Smith isn’t an ass like you.
Christian extremist trolls be trolling
Trolololo?
real christians dont use hate speech like “f*ggots.” PWNT!

You just won.
kinda looks like professor x from xmen… dunno why. maybe i need help?
Picard, you troll.
I was going to say captain Jean Luke Picard.
I’d repost the facepalm but that would be redundant.
Post a facepalm into a facepalm………….Inception.
My other post apparently got deleted in the mod-queue or something.
Long story short, I went into geek mode about how that’s Captain Jean-Luc Picard from the show Star Trek: TNG and Patrick Stewart (the guy who played Picard) also played the part of Professor X in X-Men.
So, it is technically Professor X.
No, I’ve always thought that too. Maybe we can get help together!
lol..actually this is a picture of jean luc picard wich is acted by Patrick Steward…who indeed played Prof. X
http://blog.enterpriseitplanet.com/green/blog/blogpost_img/picard_facepalm.jpg
-1 internet for you
You, sir, lost your right to the internet.
Indeed, fail sir. Fail.
it’s because he’s bald. herp derp.
No, it’s because he also played in X-Men…
Lawl – I was gonna’ say ‘Captain Picard’.
Where is the win??
All over it!
I <3 Kevin Smith … and his cute friend to the left!
Did that guy on the right really refer to Leviticus? As if Christians actually follow all the rules in a book that doesn’t even apply to our faith. It’s sad the lengths so-called Christians go to when twisting a population of people into a fake sin.
I’m gathering that his sign says that polyester is a sin.
Probably referring to the Jewish custom regarding mixed fibers in clothes.
For the record, it was a cultural thing meant to set them apart as a nation, not a moral dictate. Kind of the way you don’t wear the opposing team’s colors to the home game.
As was the dictate, in the same book, against homosexual behavior – it was to help distinguish the Israelites from, for instance, the Caananites, who apparently were a bit more open-minded.
The point is, however, that the people who rail against homosexuality because of the Bible proudly proclaim that they believe *every word in it to be the literal truth*, yet they gad about in mixed-fiber clothing and refuse to take slaves from neighboring nations…
Yep. According to Leviticus 19:19, wearing mixed fibers is a sin. That 50/50 blend is sending you to HELL!
Kevin is protesting the Westburo Baptist Church, the “god hates F*gs,” “god hates America,” “thank god for IEDs,” “thank god for dead soldiers,” etc people. I’m sure there are all kinds of ridiculous biblical quotes nearby.
I LOL’D
Anything involving Kevin Smith is not a win. The guy is an obnoxious douche.
I agree with your doppelganger, everything Kevin Smith is indeed a win. He is an awesome due and I too would love to party with him.
Right. He just throws fits about random things and uses his “fame” as a tool to be a stupid douche.
or he could just throw a fit about random Kevin Smith things on a website bulletin board and uses his non- “fame” as a tool to be a stupid douche.
Pot and kettle, James. Your comment was full o’ fail.
That’s weird.
My comments are fueled by pot, and my kettle is full o’ tea.
Also, Nacho, you’re being every bit as douche-y as Kevin Smith, but you are neither making a good point, nor, in fact, famous. Jelly, much?
Anything involving the promotion of equal rights for everyone is a win though.
Psh. Lighten up Nacho.
No worries
I’d say Michael Moore is more of an obnoxious douche; Kevin Smith just likes sticking up for the underdogs and the socially downtrodden. Being able to use his notoriety is just an added bonus.
Pretty sure that’s Malcolm on the left. And I think the Thor is a reference to one of his SMods where him and Scott talk about switching religions to ancient norse…
Does the other sign say “you lick it before i picket”
ITS GUS FROM ROOSTERTEETH
HEY! WTF?! Next time he pulls out an umbrella…
I’m an athorist, I don’t believe in Thor. The Invisible Pink Unicorn hates homophobes though, and She knows what’s what because She is so powerful She can be invisible AND pink at the same time. Just FYI.
Ohh the Invisible Pink Unicorn. May she bless you with her holy hooves!!
Oh, and seriously people, you DON’T want to find out what she does to homophobes. Let’s just remember she is a Unicorn, and that although she is both Invisible and Pink, her horn you can’t ignore…
Just as a side note, Catholics were actually the first organized Christian church. Just wanted to take a break from the downward spiral. Please feel free to continue being d-bags. Cheers!
I’m curious about the context of this photo. Were they actually protesting Westboro Baptist Church, or is this a scene from a movie, or what?
Westboro was protesting a kevin smith movie, so he says “ok, good idea, I’ll protest my movie with you”
Thanks Melanisia! Context helps a lot! Before I read your reply, this wasn’t much more than a random collection of slogans.
All hail the great and powerful hypnotoad!
I don’t want – ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD
No, FAIL.
The guy holding the Leviticus sign is a fail too. Jews still follow the Mosaic laws, but Christians don’t. But the disapproval of gay relationships is repeated in the new testament as well. That’s why conservative Christians still speak against it.
Um, no.
Peter’s vision, in Acts, merely made it okay to eat treyf – the rest of the Law was supposed to be untouched. Try reading *all* of the Bible, not just the parts your preacher recommends…
Only by Paul.
And honestly, who the **** is Paul to come in, claim to be a tax collector who “saw the light,” and practically take over the Christian religion from anybody with any ACTUAL authority?
Paul has no more moral authority than… Jimmy Swaggart or Oral Roberts.
Jesus gave him the authority…
I totally follow, to the letter, EVERYTHING that Jesus Christ says about homosexuality; hence, I am Christ-like, a follower of His doctrine.
The Anti-Gay group members are douchbags, sad to see the pro gay groups taking up their tactics. Anyone want to join me for the “I don’t give a f**k rally” It will be at the local bar of your choosing, held virtually at any time. Hoist your second beverage of choice to “Not giving a f**k” and the meeting is complete.
I would but… eh.
I think we’re all missing the big picture here… THOR IS STRAIGHT! Thor is in a relationship with Sif and his counter-part (Donald Blake) is in a relationship with Jane Foster. I think this is a fail!
That made me laugh too … yummy. Good choice of words. lol
Normally i love Kevin Smith, but Thor is no hater, he is mis-using one of the greatest gods. What a shame.
and you are misusing the word misusing.
Do you really taste yummy?
I see what you did there
Did you see the one to the right?
“You must lick it before you picket”
I worship God, and I’m willing to bet I’m smarter than you are.
Not that it has any bearing whatsoever on any conversation. Your ego is out of check. Your intellectual superiority complex rivals the moral superiority complex of the most brazen Sunday morning televangelist.
Not all believers are stupid and fortunately we know that not all Atheists are a**holes.
I’ll be ironic here and say amen.
Unfortunately, many of the people who get religious press are evangelical extremists.
Very well spoken. I’ll need to remember that for when I need an eloquent way to tell someone to bug off.
Incidentally, while I’m at it…
*Holds up his own sign*
“COYOTE HATES STUPID!!!”
I have one
You probably are one.
This is complete and total win all the way around. Ya’ll know Thor was hung like a damned pony. Gods of that Era were serious BAMFs. Not that Jehovah isn’t, I mean I’d probably pick him over Thor in a fist fight. The thing is, I seriously doubt either one would give a crap about whether or not two dudes got their freak on either way.

Let’s see here… Marvel’s movie Thor and comic Thor are both straight and have straight friends… the mythological Thor was straight and had straight friends… the original Thor, King of Ancient Germany was straight and had straight friends…
Kevin, uru certain about this?
He’s mocking them. Thesis: “God hates F*gs”; antithesis (or close to it): “Thor hates straights”
get it now?
Anybody who mocks those Westboro hate-mongers are a total win in my book! Its too bad that Jason Mewes wasn’t along…I bet they could’ve had some real fun then… ^_^
Oh, and its actually the FSM that hates the haters… Be touched by HIS noodly appendage, arrr!
I’m a Christian and pro gay
Yes, we do exist
It’s these ass wipes that give us a bad name.
Kevin Smith is pure awesomeness
Hooray! Another one!
