The most ridiculous thing about Jesus Christ Superstar

[Guy Gardener]

I'm having a lazy nostalgic Saturday afternoon, sue me.

But after the sentencing and Judas' Ghost returns from "where he wound up" and he has the absolute gall to describe the mewling industrial supercomplex of the mid 1970s as "Mass Communication" when really what they had in place was barely more efficient and sophisticated than folding love letters into paper airplanes and hoping that after you heft it, your dart strikes the right girl in the ear.

Mass Communication my ass.

The other week on Castle some "man in black" played by one of Julia Roberts exhusbands is laying down the law about how the truth can be silenced and the news papers can be bought off and that his revision of facts is all that is accountable in the modern world... It's then that Castle tells "Lyle" that he has half a million people following him on Twitter.

How many people would follow Jesus on twitter?

Would more people follow the (1960s line up LIVING, no Zombies or propped up Weekend at Bernies corpses) Beatles on Twitter than Jesus Christ?

PS

I loath Twitter,

I dunno. Would Jesus be constantly filling us* in on all the details of his life o a moment to moment basis?

"Just cast out some demons"
"Microwave burrito from 7-11! Score!"
"In line at the DMV..."


*by us I mean you. I don't Tweet.

"TARGET has the blu-ray edition of "blade runner" for $9.99. I was like "OH....MY...DAD" "

"Apostles...going 2 B late 2nite! Gotta appear on a grilled cheese sammich! LOL"

. . . Mass Communication my ass.

I know you’re being a bit facetious, but come on. In the 1970s we had international newspapers, radio, a worldwide telephone network, telex and teletype, and the beginnings of global satellite television. That sure sounds like mass communication to me.

So . . . What would Jesus’ Facebook page look like?

 

[Mike Farley]

Jesus doesn't have Facebook, he's a MySpace messiah. And it's the most garish, flashy, annoying thing ever.

Don't know about Jesus' facebook, but... http://thegloss.com/odds-and-ends/gods-facebook-genesis-edition/

JESUS CHRIST!

JESUS CHRIST!

ARE YOU AS GREAT AS THEY SAY YOU ARE?!

Yes... yes I am.

That's the only part of the movie I remember.
