A Little Poop in the Cupcake
The Godtube Cometh.
Fav vid so far, Christian vs. The Christ-Follower Part 3 (U2, natch), but really, only because of the following comment:
OK, I understand where this is coming from and both points of view. So, let's look at it this way: I make a cupcake for you. I give it to you. I tell you before you eat it that the cat accidentally pooped in the cake mix when I left to check on my kids. When I came back, I took out the poop, and cooked it anyways. WOULD YOU EAT THE CUPCAKE? No, of course not. It's just gross. A little poop in the cupcake HAS THE POTENTIAL to ruin the whole batch. A little bit of the World HAS THE POTENTIAL of harming your Spiritman - really, it does! U2 may be good, clean music & bono could be a Christian, but does it Glorify God? Is it meant to Glorify Him? Most likely no. Do things moderately. I, myself have MAYBE 20 songs out of 1,954 songs of my iTunes Music non-christian. the 1,954 others are either Pastor's teachings, DC Talk music videos and other Christian music videos, and the Bible (so that when I go on a walk, I can fill myself with the Word of God).
What the heck is a Spiritman? How did I somehow miss this apparently crucial term?

Spiritman is actually a Christian comic book. I know, because there are only 20 non Christian comic books in my collection. Christian comic books are better because there is only one superhero, Spiritman, instead of a bunch or superheroes, which is basically an analogy for polytheism. And in Christian comincs, the women are proportional.
--Seriously though, as much as I like this guy railing on U2, this is crazy and he need to read some Francis Schaeffer and the part of the Bible where God used Pharoah to glorify himself even though Pharoad doesn't believe in God- and all the other passages in which God does something similar.
Also, if you REALLY REALLY love someone, you would eat their poop. For example, if some one gave me a cupcake and told me that each member of Wilco (who's forth coming album is one of the most beautiful records I've heard in a long time) pooped in my cupcake and that the cupcake was produced by Jim O'Rourke. I would say "Well, is at least cooked poop?" and then they would say "No" and then I would say "Well...it is Wilco" and I would eat it. No exceptions.

wouldn't you want to save that poop-filled cupcake in some glass case or something? right next to walt disney's frozen body and the elephant man's corpse.

That's almost $2000 worth of music. That's a bad Stewardman.

So Spiritman is a comic book. When we take things from the world and try to make them spiritual, I think it just makes a cheap imitation. I have tried to use GodTube several times, and I have not been impressed.
Maybe GodTube and Spiritman have taken the poop out of YouTube and Superman, but the competing product still isn't as good.

Have you heard of www.conservapedia.com? It was set up to counter Wikipedia's "anti-Christian, anti-American bias." Now here's a definition of irony: a bunch of people boycotting a wiki (i.e. something that invites EVERYONE to contribute) because it doesn't represent their view point. "Hey! Maybe if we can get all the Christians and Republicans (since they're the same thing) to stop posting on wikipedia people will start reading our alternative wiki and we can be really good salt and light!"
Also, I enjoyed the Christian vs. Christ-follower spots--yet here's another definition of irony: why are they posted on Godtube?
Lastly, where'd you find the quote? I was confused--was he applying his analogy to his 20 non-Christian songs? Does that mean that 2% cat poop is okay so long as it's not Bono?
