The Eternal Struggle for Jesus’s Love Continues..

Way back in April, the great minds at wojr.com discussed how the American Bible Society had refused to print New Testaments with covers that say "Jesus Loves Porn Stars."

Well, according to this article on sploid.com (via a secret source high in the Domino’s Pizza organization):

'Jesus Loves Porn Stars'

After another Bible publisher backed out, NavPress had agreed to publish a New Testament paraphrase on behalf of XXXchurch.com, an anti-porn ministry.

The books, whose covers will read "Jesus Loves Porn Stars," will be distributed at porn-industry conventions later this year.

Kent Wilson, the executive publisher at NavPress, said that when XXXchurch.com told him what they wanted on the cover, "Our minds flashed back to the words of Jesus himself, and we quickly realized that Jesus probably would have loved that phrase."

So, I was impressed by Kent Wilson’s efforts and decided to check out the NavPress website. You know, see if I can throw some business his way.

Plus, I still haven’t read The DaVinci Code by Dan Brown. And the movie is opening up in a couple weeks. Need to get going on that.

However, I was shocked to find out that NavPress does not sell The DaVinci Code. I mean, if you’re going to sell Bibles that proclaim Christ’s love of the porn stars, then why not offer books railed against by the Pope? That just seems like the next logical step.

Maybe, Kent can compromise and publish a Bible that says "Jesus Loves All His Secret Descendants (Even the Ones Acting in Porn)" or "Jesus Isn't Too Thrilled with Tom Hanks’ Recent Hair Choices."

Who knows? I just find it funny that the Rebound Pope has problems with a film directed by Richie Cunningham. Well, besides Night Shift.

"PROSTITUTION! But what does that mean really? Let's break up the word. First there's Pros... well, that doesn't mean anything really... then there's Tit... we all know what that means... and then there's shun to shun is to say No! To push it away! To shun something is, well... it really doesn't belong in this word at all, really."
