Other gods

Kim sent me a link to a really funny article in the onion.  Normally the onion is pure crap, but this article is pretty hilarious.  One other related and notable exception is Bill Gates Grants Self 18 Dexterity, 20 Charisma, but you won’t fully appreciate that one unless you (or someone you know) is into certain kinds of board/card/video games.

That first link didn’t strike me as really funny.  When I was younger, I didn’t really have a clear concept of what it really meant to worship idols.  Perhaps it is because of the influence that the Abrahamic religions on our society.  But these days, it seems a lot more serious and demonic, because I see actual idols here in Asia.  It goes one step further, too, and makes me more aware of the invisible idols that are worshipped in America. I really love to see how Scripture can come more and more alive as we gain knowledge!

On the other hand, I thought the Bill Gates one was hilarious, even though I only have second-hand knowledge of those kind of games.  I liked how Netscape, Oracle, and Morgoth were grouped together in the same sentence.

Yeah, I can see how it wouldn’t be as funny if you actually see idol-worshippers on a daily basis.
