Thursday Manna roundup

Your Thursday roundup of interesting news courtesy of the LIVEtheLIFE Team…

A 59-year-old judge is on trial for allegedly using a penis pump while sitting in judgement of others.

In China, wet nursing is back with a vengeance, and human rights activists are not happy.
In Britain, a goat with a rank of lance corporal was demoted after it marched out of line, trying to headbutt the nether regions of drummers during a celebration of Queen Elizabeth II’s birthday.

And of course, in the Philippines, we’re happy our President no longer has diarrhea.

On Christian novelty items

The latest on the assembly line of mass-produced (pun intended, folks) commercial items bearing the likeness of the Son of God is a Jesus Loves Porn Stars Bible. This article from Wavy.Com says Pastor Craig Gross (that's his real name, boys and girls) of XXXChurch.com, who attended an erotica convention and gave out Jesus Loves Porn Stars Bible, published by NavPress, the same folks behind Eugene Peterson's The Message bible, which translates the original Biblical text into more contemporary language.

Superman as Messiah?

The YOU Section of the Philippine Daily Inquirer's website, Inq7.net, publishes an interesting article penned by Jacob Adelman titled Superman as Messiah.

The article discusses the different possible interpretations and re-readings of the Superman storyline, featuring Christian, Jewish, even gay analogies for the Man of Steel.

Meanwhile, we wait for the allegorical references in Captain Barbell. They're doing well so far; Smallville has already been ripped off in a couple of episodes.
