Jews for Jesus

Apr 18, 2005 18:21

Hey guys. I promised some sort of a constructive entry so here it is. Today was the marathon and me, Simon, and Dan went to it, as is the tradition. Also the tradition is to find really weird people and to talk to them. Of course there is no lack of weird people during the time of the marathon. And i mean that in the best way possible. They are everywhere.

Simon tells me that one time they even chatted with a few skinheads. Both Dan and Simon have some Jewish blood in them so i find that fact more than amusing. But anyways. Today there was a fat bearded man that looked to be about 50 years old handing out flyers about "Jews for Jesus" or some such "corporation." We, seeing the ridiculous "Jesus Loves You" sign could not help but talk to the guy for 30 minutes about his religious beliefs. The result was about the strangest 30 minute conversation with a religious fanatic that ive ever had.

This guy is fucking insane. Again i mean this in the best way possible. He explained to us that Jesus is not dead but alive and one can easily engage in conversation with him if they try. When we asked him how the hell he knows that he answered that he speaks with jesus evryday. When Simon asked him if he believes that Jesus spoke with Bush, the bearded dude said that most likely. We asked him about where his evidence is and he replied that the Bible is his evidence because God wrote it. We asked him what evidence he has that god wrote it and he said because it was holy. To which i replied "guys lets get the fuck out of here" But no we stayed.

The lunatic than told us that he had a hole in his heart before it was filled with Jesus. He tried to close the hole with alcohol and women, he said, but only Jesus was able to fill the hole. At this point i had a mental image of Jesus being shoved into a small opening in a man's chest. Of course he probably didnt mean that literally, but hey who gives a damn. The man than proceeded to described the kind of sins that would get our asses in jail. Now we are fierce liberals (dan is an exception hes sorta retarded like that) so we pretended to agree with him. He said homosexuality, sex, and alcohol (basically fun) was illegal and would land u straight in hell. He than said he knows. I got angry and asked him "How do you know did you have Gay Sex??" To which he said "Yes i did. When i served in the navy i tried it" At this point i was pretty freaked out, thinking this dude is some sort of a fucking sick pedophile or something. He apparently was enjoying the fact that we were making fun of his stupidity so he handed us some little forms to fill out. I saved them if u want proof (: The guy was raped in the ass by the US Navy. EEEEExcccelent.

That was perhaps the highlight of that conversation. There was also some shit about him saying that "He doesnt hate the people but he hates the sin" when talking about gays which i found pretty funny. Also when asked about the Pope he said "What about him, hes dead". He said it pretty rudely so he must have had something against the Pope. That was also quiet amusing. But anyway we quickly ditched him and had a normal day full of free shit, huge crowds, and disabled runners on super-wheel-chairs. O and we also ate. The End.

P.S. That dude was totaly insane.
