Jesus loves porn stars. Or does he?
It seems that perhaps Jesus doesn’t love everyone after all, or at least The American Bible Society just thinks he doesn’t. They’ve refused to print bibles with the phrase “Jesus Loves Porn Stars” written on the cover:
According to the Associated Press and UPI, the American Bible Society has refused to print an order of Bibles with “Jesus Loves Porn Stars” emblazoned across the cover to be handed out to adult film stars by XXXchurch.com at locations across the country.
The American Bible Society contends that such a statement was inappropriate for a New Testament cover. As a ministry to those so trapped by this filth as to seek it out in public, one cannot blame the outreach for trying though, as frankly up until now there was little the American Bible Society would not allow on the covers of their Bibles.
I especially love the rant the article writer goes on later on in the article, about the other things the Society has managed to print:
And this is one of the more sedate editions. Back in 2003, I wrote a column exposing the American Bible Society’s Celebrating Jubilee New Testament that depicted Black radicals such as Martin Luther King, Jr. (hardly a Biblical inerrantist despite whatever else commendable that might be said about the man), W.E.B. Dubois (a confirmed Communist), and the Olympic athletes that raised their clenched fists in protest in a disrespectful gesture against the Star Spangled Banner. Other questionable editions included the CEV Kwanzaa New Testament and The CEV Jubilee Bible made up to look like the black, green, and red Pan-African flag.
Oh no, not a Communist! I almost forgot about the 11th Commandment: Thou Shalt Embrace Capitalism.
