I assume Falwell's publication is condemning or attacking Buddy...Im not lucky enough to receive that newsletter(or is it unlucky enough)...I never seen whats so offensive about Buddy C anyways...It seems like the kind of thing they'd go for, considering the effort, time, and money they put into the WWJD thing, to make Jesus seem more hip or cool. I will have to tell you though...if the Catholic Church used the Buddy Christ back when I was a kid, I would probably still be Catholic today...But Im perfectly happy just being a Human Being...This newsletter, brought to you by the guy who eductates us on the Dark Evil that is The Teletubbies...Bill Cosby better watch out, Falwell may delcare war on Jell-O Pudding for being TOO good and yummy, and label the Coz as the Devil himself.

ps I will be ordering a Buddy for my computer at work soon...
: : For Kevin - thought you might be interested in seeing The Buddy Christ featured in Jerry Falwell's "National Liberty Journal" (March 2001, Volume 30, Number 3, page 1 and 12). Somehow, I ended up on their mailing list (which is odd, since I'm a liberal agnostic, and registered Democrat).
: : You should check out their paper, though. It was even funnier than Dogma (no, not really...but close!) Can't wait for the return of Jay and Silent Bob...and, can't wait to get my Infinity Highway t-shirt in the mail (damn you guys are slow! =-) )
