It's been a while since I visited I visited the Brick Testament website. Now's he's on the pleasant family values funloving book of Joshua:

Will someone please explain the brick testament to me. It looks completely normal save for subtle innuendoes in some of the pictures. If you visit the creator's website you find that he's actually releasing brick testament books and they're getting positive publicity.

So YHWH's a racist as well!

I think they're simply brilliant - after all, he's only using Lego to provide illustrations of actual passages from the bible. For some reason, this only highlights how violent, contradictory and in many cases just plain nasty the book actually is.

I'd be very tempted to buy a brick testament book... if I didn't have broadband, that is :devil3:

Got to love the pile of foreskins.

(The Second Circumcision)

Which reminds me of a joke.

After forty years, the old Mohel (the rabbi who performs circumcisions) was retiring. He had an unusual but harmless eccentricity: He preserved and collected the foreskins. After forty years, you can imagine he had quite a collection.

Retired, and with some time on his hands, he wondered what he could do with this rather large collection. Seizing on a plan, he grabbed them all and went down to the leather shop.

The proprietor of the leather shop looked at this copious collection, stood deep in thought for a few minutes, and then said to the Mohel, "Come back in a week; I think I can work something out." Grateful, the Mohel departed.

A week later, excited, he returned to the leather shop. "What do you have for me?"

The proprietor says, "Well, it took me some time, but here's what I could do." He reaches under the counter and pulls out a wallet.

"A wallet!" the Mohel exclaimed. "Forty years of foreskins and all you can make is a wallet!?"

"Well," replied the proprietor, "If you rub it, it turns into a suitcase."

Check out his selection of parables from the Gospels. They make you wonder about the Bible.

I believe the guy who makes those is atheist right? At least that's sort of what I got after going to her personal website...

I leafed through the book when I saw it in a shop (yep, there's a German translation) and it says in the introduction that the author is atheist.
