Not, not in bad taste to laugh.  It might be a hokey story, but the underlying meaning/thought behind it is what did it to me.  I grew up in a fairly religious family.  I even graduated from Bible school so I understand how people can take the Bible out of context.  That's also why I've been avoiding posting in this portion of this thread.

Although you may be right Hmed, I think lolspeaking him is just a modern day version of Python.

True. And the parodies may even be older then Life of Brian..

And.. humor by it's mere nature is insulting. Most humor is ahviang a laugh at someone elses' expense.

Given that religion is profoundly important to the people who have certain beliefs.. it would be really hurtful and perplexing to them to see something treated to lightly.

..plus.. I've somewhat lost how we got onto this drift..
 
Where did this new path start on the thread?.. I'm lost and confused at the moment.

I really am lost. Are we passively agressively laughing at people for being nice? Or.. not?

Fat chance of that happening.

You're right, they could never afford legal representation.

Nah, the planet will survive.  Everyone says "Save The Planet".  The planet will be fine.  Humans may golly it up for a time, but it will outlast humans by millennia and get better.

In order to not risk offending you, I will not link to the lolkoran  :)

By all means, don't let my stupid emotions/nonsense talk stop you.  ::)

Part of me thinks we're an experiment by the Aliens,to see how and what we'd do.

For real though.. that?s sort of the point. This shouldn?t be a matter of religion. Or, it shouldn?t even be overly focused on people who cheat the system. No matter where you are on the food chain, there will always be liars and cheaters.

But, that shouldn?t keep us from being good people.. right? Even if it was for selfish reasons it makes sense. Karma.. or energy.. or luck.. or good will.. whatever you want to call it has a way of flip flopping lots of times. So..some day everyone will need help. It just makes common sense that if we put good and positive energy out into the world, it?s preferable to putting out crabby negative selfish energy out into the world. And no, I?m not na?ve. It?s really what I believe.

Monty Python.. Life of Brian

Basically all generations have there own way to vent on certain concepts. LOLz anything is just an upgrade of an already done idea.
