"We are told the fight was caused by difference of views of the Scriptures." These Christian soldiers seem to be following all the rules. [KOB via Christian Nightmares]

A few weeks ago, the Smithsonian removed a work of art from an exhibition over complaints that it was offensive to Christians. Now the Andy Warhol Foundation—which gave $100,000 for the exhibition—says it'll stop funding Smithsonian shows.

Jesus is coming back soon (May 21, 2011, guys!) but you can still buy cheap jewelry. It's the Second Coming Sale and everything is half-off! Judgment Day is upon us so it might be the last chance you get.

Poor Jesus Christ only gets half the presents! This spurs Stephen Colbert to launch his annual "War on War on Christmas," in which he goes after sparring atheist-vs-religious billboards outside the Lincoln Tunnel. Watch inside.

This time, it's really happening. On May 21 of next year, Jesus Christ shall swoop down from the heavens on a white steed to snatch up all True Believers. That's right — the Rapture is coming! Where do you stand?

Reps. John Boehner and Eric Cantor, the two leading House Republicans, have issued a warning to the Smithsonian's National Portrait Gallery: Take down that exhibit where Jesus is covered with ants, or face "tough scrutiny" next year. [Update below]

The annual godless atheist humanist War on Christmas starts just as early as the Corporate American Christmas Season, and with equal fervor. For at least the third straight year, atheists have chosen to assault god-fearing Americans, with advertisements. Godless advertisements.

A small Polish town today has finished building what they claim is the largest Jesus statue in the world, even bigger than Rio's Christ the Redeemer. New Jesus is 167 feet tall, while Rio's stands at 125 feet. Pics inside!

Ever wish you could see the Passion of Christ in real life, with a bloodied, shackled Jesus? Dream of high-fiving Jonah inside a whale's large intestine? Lucky you: America's foremost Biblical amusement park is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year.

Here is an odd, elderly-looking (2,000 year-old?) baby in church, dancing as if possessed by the Jesus Spirit. Give that baby a cigarette and tape it to a wall, it'll be the biggest thing on the internet!

The Way We Live Now: less like a rich mom and more like a poor mom. Less like a dream realized and more like a dream deferred. Less like Jesus. More like a renegade tax man, out for justice.

If, like many elitist heathens, you consider a megachurch in Orange County to be one of the most objectionable things your imagination could ever conjure up, you'll be impolitely happy to hear that the Crystal Cathedral is bankrupt. (Financially).

Like most religious people, Americans are breathtakingly ignorant. We already knew we were ignorant about science and other factual matters, of course—but it turns out we're equally ignorant about religion! Except for the atheists.

For decades, tormented alcoholics have taken comfort in the clear, soul-penetrating language of AA's "Big Book," which serves as a guide down the path to sobriety. Now they're publishing the original manuscript, with all the edits. Confusion ahoy, alcoholics!

When you type the letters "j-e-s" into Google, the first suggestion to come up as part of its new "instant search" feature is 11-year-old viral video star and internet punching bag Jessi Slaughter. The second name on the list: "Jesus."

Ultra-conservative Christian mega business ministry Focus on the Family wants all these gay people to stop talking about child bullying, because they're pushing a secret agenda to turn America's kids into homosexuals, and that is not what Jesus intended.

There aren't a lot of good things about Red Eye. This clip of a man with his face painted like a dog that sings about his love for Jesus is worth watching, if only for the howling midway through.

Some things are small miracles, like a child's smile. And then there are big miracles, like when a stolen fragment of the True Cross is returned by a mysterious transient, who disappears. How in-your-face does Jesus have to be? Jesus.

Time magazine is a little embarrassed this morning, after Jack Shafer pointed out that Time ran "Can Animals Think?" stories in 1993, 1999, and this week. Psht. That's nothing compared to Newsweek's Historical Jesus coverage. Some things are always important.

You know when you come across something that's hilarious, and even more so because it wasn't intended to be? This video—of a pastor and his crew's auto-tuned talk about "The MoJo, baby!" (for promotion?)—fits the bill perfectly.
