Man tries to convert lions to Jesus, gets bitten
OMG!!!! :crazy:

Updated: 5:51 a.m. ET Nov. 3, 2004TAIPEI, Taiwan - 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.

Newspapers said that the lions had been fed earlier in the day, otherwise the man might have been more seriously hurt ... or worse.

3. That is an analogy to describe the neo-cons, fake reality.

5. If I were Jesus I'd be laughing my ass off...
"Hey Paul! Paul, check this out! Do you believe this idiot? Shit, I'm the son of God and I can't fucking believe it!"

Everybody makes money!
