Is Michael Jackson God?
Then a lawyer asked our Lord Jesus, “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” Jesus' answer: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart... Matthew 22:36-40
The Spirit of the Lord is on me. Luke 4:18
Plus the whole 'God is Love' thing has to add some points. What all this seems to suggest to me is that God (who is overwhelmingly referred to as He throughout the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures). What this seems to mandate is that all Christians are required by the law of God to love Him first and foremost above all others. That includes spouses or significant others. Let's not forget all the people who can't stop talking about how much they love Jesus, too. It sounds to me like God is telling everyone to love Him, including men. And we've established that God is referred to as male. Sound gay to anyone else?
Luke 4:17-21: "And the book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him (Jesus). And He opened the book, and found the place where it was written, ‘The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He anointed me..." Now there's oil involved. Sounds a lot more like Michael Jackson to me than anything else. There's that whole part in Genesis where he decides that he wants people to stop getting so old. You know Michael would do that if he could. I'm going scripture hunting to see what else I can find. But it's overwhelmingly clear already that God is into young men, and maybe a little S&M (the whole laws thing). There's room for an incest argument, too. But I'll not go there just now.
I'm so going to hell for this (Sorry, I couldn't resist the shamelessly stolen graphic.)

I think that's the most ridiculous thing I've heard all day.

One of these days you're going to get struck. The only problem I have with that (for the moment) is that I'll probably be standing next to you. :)
