Beating People Up With Jesus
I was at a family gathering today when my brother brought out his spanking new Nintendo Wii. Now I don’t generally like console games and I particularly don’t like the Wii because it defeats the purpose of video games as a whole. The ability to enjoy life as a couch potato.
So, I laid down on the sofa while everyone was jostling for position to get to try it out. I was having a good time mocking my brothers as they got their “exercise” on a video game console. After trying out a few games, the decided to give boxing a shot. That got my interest. I don’t particularly like boxing (there’s lots of things I don’t like) but on the screen where you get to choose who your boxer is, who else would be there but our beloved Jesus. That really got me in the mood. Like what better way to release some steam than to punch Jesus around. I wanted to yell, “I’ve found Jesus and he’s on the Wii!!! Wheeeeee!
I demanded to have a turn. Of course, this led to everyone refusing since I was lambasting the game all along. Nobody picked Jesus up, either, since all my family are pretend Christians and Catholics. I finally wrestled a controller from my younger brother for the second match. I was pitted against… my three year old niece. Bleh.
They chose some dorky looking character for her to play, even though I was asking them to give her Jesus so I could have some fun. Therefore, I chose Jesus for myself.
Round 1!!!
My niece started clobbering on Jesus, “God bless her!!!” I was having a grand time being the punching bag and cheering her on by saying, “Punch Jesus, come on, punch him some more!” My brothers tried to get to me by saying I was losing to a little girl who didn’t even know what she was doing, of course, I replied by saying, “What do you expect, I’m playing the part of some wimp who doesn’t even exist.”
Playing Jesus is fun. It’s the perfect excuse for being a loser. No wonder so many losers people cling to him.
