Mixed Martial Arts Ministries?

The great Phil Kidd has a new ministry: Mixed Martial Arts Camp! Jesus may love you…but we’ll ground and pound you until you cry like a sinner on Tribulation Night at a prophecy conference.

During your stay you will be instructed in MMA fighting techniques…It is the mission of this camp to instill self confidence, discipline development, respect, and defense against confrontation…You will be given daily instructions in techniques by Mr. Tom Seigler. You will have plenty of time for practice on the mat and great Bible preaching in the evening by Dr. Kidd.

To be honest, I think I’d rather go head to head with Frankie Edgar than have to sit through Kidd’s preaching. What confuses me about this site, though, is that the video at the bottom contains both music with drums AND a woman clad in karate britches. Phil is slipping badly.

FWOTW: goodnewsofcr.com

This week’s selection of fundy website is goodnewsofcr.com which makes the grade based on its design choices alone.

If that weren’t enough, hosting Chuck Cofty for revival services and taking church trips to PCC affirms their fundy cred. What is a little confusing, however, is their use of an image from the godless Hollywood movie, Back to the Future (wherein is drinking, dancing, cussing, and fornicating of all kinds) to promote their “Future Friday Night” program. They need to come out from among them and be separate, amen?

I’ll leave it to you all to find any particularly interesting content as I am now seeking treatment for burned out retinas.

Blog Shoutout: OLD TIME RELIGION THE BLOG

 


(click to embiggen)

 

I’ve wasted way too much time over the past couple of days reading the entries at old-time-religion.blogspot.com. It’s a collection of religious bits and pieces from over the last several decades which are just fascinating to me. Yes, not all of them are about fundamentalists but they are mostly about crazy religious goings on and that’s right up my alley! I have a feeling most of the folks here will enjoy this stuff too.

A bit about Jim Linderman…

Linderman is called”The King of Internet Ephemera” for his series of odd art blogs under the Dull Tool Dim Bulb umbrella. Now comes this new book of bold obscure graphics, tracts, pamphlets, screeds, photographs and more from the last 100 years of Bible Thumpers and Evangelists. The True Heritage of the Religious Right! Linderman lovingly preserves and presents these dopey artifacts because no one else does. Astounding, frightening and hilarious at the same time. Get down on your sinful knees! Is the Apocalypse coming? YES, and it has been for the last100 years!
