Man tries to convert lions to Jesus, gets bitten
A man leaped into a lion’s den at the Taipei Zoo on Wednesday to try to convert the king of beasts to Christianity, but was bitten in the leg for his efforts.
“Jesus will save you!” shouted the 46-year-old man at two African lions lounging under a tree a few meters away.
“Come bite me!” he said with both hands raised, television footage showed.
One of the lions, a large male with a shaggy mane, bit the man in his right leg before zoo workers drove it off with water hoses and tranquilizer guns.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

I wholly approve of this mans christianity. Perhaps more nominal christians should muster up this mans mustard seed for themselves?

Pastor Kent Christmas: Christians need people who are ‘willing to strap bombs to their chest’ like the Muslims
“I am at war with evil! This is one preacher that is not backing down. I can tell you this: I will give my life for the Gospel.”
“You want to know why the Muslim faith has had its advancements? It’s because the Muslims were willing to die for their beliefs. They were willing to strap bombs to their chest. They believed in the afterlife.”
“God, give us some men and women that will get a hold of some passion in their spirit and say, ‘I will lay down my life for the Gospel!' This thing was born in blood.”

Blowing -other- people to pieces is the peace of god. I'm reminded of medieval shamans working up the populace from the pulpit and then clutching pearls when the pulpit itself was sacked. Bunch of roadside freakshow operators were pissed at the loss of business, and decided to have themselves a little convention and yell at clouds.

Did you ever wonder how to get rid of a demon that suddenly attacks you and won't let go?
