Good Evening Guys:

Trying to figure out what the fuss is all about. I myself am a “Believer”, and if you want to label something (anything) based on what your own personal belief (or not) system is, your problem not mine. Besides guys, if Jesus needs to get in touch with any of you, something tells me that it won’t be through any techo device. It will probably be a “wait and see moment”. Be good to each other guys.

It might actually be funnier if it had Mohammed the Prophet in it. Just blank out his face and have a moving blue dot talking into an iPhone.
Add some of that nifty middle eastern music and it would have been awesome.

extanzer, do you have any idea how many times phrases like “sand flea”, “sand n—–” and “rag head” have been used without their users getting attacked?
Also, some Christians do react much. Oh, wait–I guess Freddy Phelps and his Westboro n00bs might not count as Christians. Still, some Christians do get overly uptight about stuff they really don’t to get overly uptight about…such as Harry Potter (”ZOMG evil wicca!!11″) Plenty of other examples exist.
I’m not trying to bash Christians in general–i actually AM a Christian, and I realize there are plenty of us who are pretty reasonable. But I don’t completely agree with extanzer’s comment. That’s all.

Not a problem. It’s the Jesus Phone, not the Allah Phone. No heads will roll. Everyone knows Christians are easy targets, they don’t react much. Try pulling that sh*t with the Muslims and see what happens….

Sascha – Flame bait much?…
You don’t have to be Christian in order to tragically be born without a sense of humor… Seems like a bunch of the TC readership does a good job of that already, also seems like plenty of them end up turning things that are a joke way too serious one way or another… Whether it be by having their own stupid reaction to something, or focusing on the possible (but as yet non-existent) reaction of other groups and getting shitty with that.

Personally I didn’t think the video was that crash hot, but am looking forward to seeing some more :P was nice to see something lighthearted and kinda funky that didn’t smack of apple fanboyism – which is all I seem to get from most blogs…. Like to thank Crunchgear for firmly staying OFF that bandwagon right from the beginning and assessing the situation in a reasonable manner.

I wonder how long it takes until some effing Christian Community blog/website/whatever starts harrassing TC for producing and publishing blasphemic content. Come on, those effers don’t have a sense of humor. Or reason. Or intelligence. Ah, what a Friday!
