Here is a story on Faux News ([url="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,119408,00.html"]http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,119408,00.html[/url]) about the hot new trend of Jesus hats and T-shirts, particularly ones that have the slogan "Jesus Is My Homeboy" emblazened on them. Of course, it doesn't signify any kind of real spirituality; it is merely something to wear with your low-rider pants, thong underwear, and assorted Afro fashions. What do the hot, young, fashion-watchers say about his season's Jesus duds? Well, read for yourself--

“It’s a fun, little Hollywood trend that was sparked by the success of the movie,” said [url="http://www.eonline.com/"]E! Networks[/url] lifestyle director Elycia Rubin.

And her idiocy is topped only that of this moron --

“We looked at the popular icons of the 20th century and Jesus definitely topped the list,” said Chris Hoy, a partner at Teenage Millionaire.

I wonder how Jesus does in the focus groups? Perhaps we can look forward to a sitcom? Maybe some tie-ins with McDonalds?

You cant make this stuff up. These people wouldn't know real spirituality if it knocked 'em upside the head. (Here's hoping it does.)

He is my Lord, my Saviour, my Rock, my fortress and even my copilot, but he's no one's homey.
