Let Jesus Into Your Wii
Mission Bay Community Church in San Francisco, California (figures) is offering a Jesus Mii to anyone who attends their church and brings their Wii Remote with them.
What can you do with a Jesus Mii on your Nintendo Wii? Well, according to the church's website:
You can box with Jesus, golf with Him, or even bowl with Him! A night bowling with Jesus? What could be better? Especially if you get that turkey and best Him by 100 points! Don't worry;—He'll forgive you.
We've always wanted to golf and bowl with Jesus. Wow! Just think...Jesus can now be your new BFF.
Wow. Now if we can just get Microsoft in on this, Jesus could replace Clippit:

ROFL! Clippit is a bit annoying. Every time I reinstall the program, I nuke him...fast!

Oh no. This is looking very desparate to trick people into coming. Besides, dont people that own a wii know that they can go online and just download hundreds of user submitted Jesus so called look alikes? If the God of the universe can be tossed around as some videogame cartoon at this church, why would I want to even go there? They sure dont seem to hold God in much reverence there at all. Maybe next we will see the muslims have a "mohommad into your wii" gimmick to attract people to islam. No, probably not, because even they seem to have more respect for some false prophet than this church has for the God of the universe.

What a disgrace! This is absolutely disgusting and totally irreverent. The irony of these types of churches is that they think people are turned off by the traditional church...if THIS model of "church" doesn't turn off everyone, both Christian and non-Christian, I don't know what would. I would NEVER step foot into that hotbed of blasphemy. What a mockery of our Savior. The only people that would be attracted by this nonsense would maybe be some very worldly, godless people who think something like this is funny. No true Christian would accept this treatment and demeaning of the true Savior.
These people will have to answer one day for this merchandising and cheapening of Jesus...at least we know that it is another jesus anyway that they are selling to their crowds. Sad...

Are you kidding? I can't afford a Wii. I'm saving up for a used PlayStation 2. They're getting really cheap these days now that the PS3 is out.
Maybe I should be praying harder.
