This was posted on Slog the other day.
In fact, I had the "Jesus is a friend of mine, Jesus is my friend" line stuck in my head for the better part of the weekend. Lucky me.
I loved this song when Lindy West posted it last Tuesday, and I still love it now.
Zap.
"Zap you anyway he can"? That sounds oddly like Barebacking!!!! Jesus is not practicing safe sex and infecting you with his sonseed.
Clearly, Jesus is evil!!!
Did you not even notice this from last week? If you're reposting because you still find it funny, at least point that out. If you've never seen it, then maybe you should read your own blog.
via Matt effing Hickey, if i recall correctly.
So is Slog documenting your slide into dementia? Or is this just a Gleemonex moment?
So nice we posted it twice.
@4 Maybe Dan believes he is a bad man and he won't even read his own blog?
Yeah, it was cute the first time I watched it but I do NOT want to go another day with it stuck in my head, thanks.
I didn't bother to listen to this the first time (having just watched the other Christian video posted that day) - but I have to say I'm glad you posted this twice - what a great little tune 8^)
I wonder if those lyrics are actually his way of getting out the message of being molested by a youth pastor or 'pray away the gay'
Someone on MeFi did a little digging into the backstory:

What are the odds that the mustachioed backup signer with the pedi-smile landed on 1983's equivalent of "Youth Pastor Watch"?
I'd say 1:2.
They're no Donnie Davies.
@4 some of us read dan's posts exclusively
@6 - See Dan, that wasn't so hard was it.
Yeah, I'm with 13 I don't read regular slog...just Dan's blog!
Speaking of great things that you've all probably seen before: Anderson Cooper on Sesame Street

And (drumroll), the official Sonseed band tee: http://www.jesusoftheweek.com/jesii/459/index.html
Ska - Soul = Sonseed
Goodness, do I ever love the Slog at this moment. Not only did I get to read about the history of the band, but I also got to see Anderson Cooper on Sesame Street! How cool is that!
Two things about the video:
1. Is it just me, or is the guitar player rocking that early '80s, been-listening-to-The-Clash look a little too well to be convincingly Christian? I think there's a little bit of Satan in his pants.
2. How weird is it that the syncopated rhythm of that song got transferred from Africa to the New World, roiled around Jamaica for a few hundred years, turned into ska, and then became the WHITE-IST THING EVER? Cultural imperialism lives, man.
I want to fornicate to this song.
Holy Frickin' Chicken, your comment made me listen to this song and laugh at it till I cried all over again.
God is the biggest homo around. Nobody is more obsessed with the cock than God and Jesus. The obsession just trickles down to the followers.
