A greatest hit of an ungreat blog

I was scouring the 'net for some hard news to exercise my mind tonight, and found something that would convince even the harshest religious skeptic of the existence of a creator:



That, ladies and gentlemen, is a grilled cheese with the virgin Mary on it. You may be skeptical, but it's 100 percent authentic. People are traveling the world to get a glimpse of this cherished religious symbol... hoping it bestows upon them the "blessing of the cheddar."

Then I happened across something even MORE astounding.



If you guessed this is a fish stick with Jesus on it, (DING DING DING) you are absolutely right! This morsel of mollusk is rumored to be a processed, homogenized and preserved piece of one of the actual fish Jesus duplicated in infinitum in the whole "loaves and fishes" thing. Obviously, a "Van DeKamp veneration."

It only took a few more mouse clicks until I came across...



The "Mary nursing Jesus" popcorn! That's right, this celestial kernel looks as if it "popped" right out of the heavenly husk of God. Who could question the obvious message He is sending through His mystical maize. If God has a name, it's probably Redenbacher.

But then, obviously satan became jealous of the attention given to the consecrated cuisine... and sent us THIS message (clearly authentic) on the side of a hot pocket:



What are we to make of this satanic snack? Could beelzabub be trying to lure us into his cheesy web of deceit? Or is the chef boyar-devil simply reminding us that, if we're not good, he'll save a nice little waterfront cottage for us... on the river STYX?

Side note: the luciferous hot pocket sold for 137 bucks on e-bay. No joke.

Finally my search for pietous pabulum was over, and I logged off the net. Faith in a creator is something you'll find in your heart - not in a grocery store.

Next stop, the pantry, where earlier I had spied a tater shaped like Hitler. That should fetch a handsome price.

Frankly, that first image of the Virgin Mary - looked more like Jean Harlow to me. Just sayin.

Hm. I once found a fly in a meatball grinder. Damn. I could have put it on Ebay as Vincent Price!

Great posting, Dave...

God isn't in your pantry, he is in my iPod.
Great post. Even the 2nd time around, I blew a little coffee out my nose. And that is a good thing.

It amazes me how people will read so much into imagery. I think people just want some form, any form, of real touchable evidence. Like SpinningGirl said, it's in our hearts.

I thought the first one looked more like Madonna (the singer, not the bible version).

When things like this pop up, I am thankful that I am agnostic so it doesn't mean a thing to me....haha.

I agree with Mishka - Madonna in Evita. That's the first thing I see everytime I see it. I can see why no one wanted to eat it - who would want to eat Madonna after where SHE'S been?

I once saw a play about fire ants pretending to be bananas. I don't think it advanced much beyond Off-Broadway.
