The "I love God so much I got a T-Shirt" movement.

Oh boy.  Just look at what the silly fringe of Christianity is doing now.   Having fixed the problems of war, poverty and social injustice, the Passion For Christ is turning it's sights onto the next greatest problem with America: teenage masturbation.

In an effort to shape the youth of America into happy little sinless zealots, they are even giving out T-shirts!  T-SHIRTS! 

T-shirts like these:





That's right, stop touching yourself, and you get a T-shirt! 

They also have the standard shirts like "Ex Homosexual" and "Ex-Atheist", as well as "Ex-Rebel", "Ex-Diva" and "Ex-Hypocrite", which are kind of "meh" inducing.  But the "Ex-Slave" T-shirt now, while it's supposed to be all about no longer being slaves to our passions, etc., I can see how it is going to be perfect for all kinds of  wacky misunderstandings.  In fact, I can hardly wait until an earnest white guy wearing that shirt goes wandering through say, Watts or Oakland late at night.

Oh, holy moly.

But doesn't that just imply that they're now going out being promiscuous instead?

I like the suggestion that the back of these should read "Current Fornicator"

[llamabitchyo.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I like that. It's catchy. (Like an STD.)

My God (as it were)! We need these for DDC! I'm not sure how or why exactly, but we need them.

Perhaps for NO REASON.

Nope, we need them just in case the silly con hotels decide to have some sort of religious group meetings scheduled too. We could blend in!

Wear one of these shirts, but walk around with your tool hanging out of your fly. Under the tshirt slogan, write "You can help!"

Maybe get one and then cross out the EX with a Sharpie.

Or stencil on an "H" before the "ex", just to creep out parent groups.
