Deck the halls. Insane and yet somehow not very surprising.

What a trend we have in Jesus, indeed.

"Plastic replica of an 11-12 week old fetus, 3" long, holding a firearm in its precious little hand...

Show that you support the 'culture of life' by buying and proudly displaying one of these patriotic unborn Americans."

Did I already say "insane"?

OTOH, p'raps they're not too serious about it all: anti-masturbation creme in a delightful coconut scent.

Repeat after me:

THERE'S NO SARCASM TAG IN HTML.

(but there really should be)

Armed Fetus would be a great band name. I'm just saying.

Jesus continually defies attempts by humanity to nail him down.

Yep, she has a sense of humour alright.

Note to the confused:This is a real product, from a real site. The product is a satire, but it is also a real product (emphasis mine)

A satire far beyond the bounds of good...well, anything...but a satire nonetheless.

eth, I would love to see your decorated light sculpture thingamabob when it's done. What a promising start.

There's a lot more going on already but pulling out th camera and making it function is too much of a pain in the ass right now.

I can not express how relieved I am that my worst fears about Dominion Evangelism were misplaced.

Dude. I want to buy a tree and 20 or 30 of these nifty ornaments, half in the "brown" color, of course, and seriously deck the halls. It would be so awesome.

Alas. When I'm really super-rich and can waste tons of money on things of this sort, I'll be up to a lot more wacky hijinx.

So stealing that for use as a pick up line.

Also, there are so many things I see that I would love to get for various friends of mine. My tattoo artist, in particular, has that deep love of religious kitch that one can only get when they don't grow up Catholic. He'd go nuts for that lock-and-load Jesus mouse pad (and has done a velvet version of that painting with Elvis in place of Jesus for his latest gallery show).

And I think my roommate needs anti-masturbation cream. Just to make him confused and scared.

i heard it's more like a wizard's sleeve.
Finger nun sounds more like a command.

For the anti-masturbation cream, it says:

5 oz. of soothing anti-masturbation cream. Keep applying until you get relief.

Now, what makes me think that this product might not work?

This ornament, it vibrates?

Those fridge magnets. Must have. Now.

I wish I wasn't the only irreverent person in my family - they'd all get magnets.
