If Jesus Christ was on Facebook, it would look like this [original source unknown]. This is pretty darn funny – even on Holy Week. Sorry if this is irreverent but too good not to share – especially because it’s funny and most of it is pretty bibically accurate. Some highlights:
- Jesus has 777,777,777,777 fans.
- The Disciples wrote on Peter’s wall: So, Jesus told us to walk up ot people we don’t know, and basically steal their colt and donkey… This is sketchy, don’t you think???
- The High Priests have created a group: How to Use the Temple for piety AND profit.
- The High Priests have given Judas a gift: 30 pieces of Silver.

On a sidenote, you can follow the events of Holy Week via Twitter at http://twitter.com/passionweek. Here’s more about this from John’s blog:
I have created a Twitter account called @passionweek. Beginning this Sunday — Palm Sunday — you can follow along with the events of Jesus’ final week. Throughout the week, the@passionweek twitter account will post a brief glimpse of what Jesus experienced at the time he would of experienced it. The timing is mostly estimated. Regardless, I hope it can give you reason to pause throughout the week to reflect and anticipate what looms on Sunday.

Hi-LARIOIUS! I love it!
Brilliant! I love it!
What if Jesus was on Twitter? What would he be twittering now spending his passion week in Jerusalem?
Just conveyed more of The Story to my son in 5 minutes than in his whole life! All the while laughing together.

@Steve,
I took a stab at the Jesus/Twitter question a while back; thought you might dig it.

Looking through this, I saw Bart Ehrman pop up quite a bit, and a quick Google search lead to his Wikipedia page — http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bart_D._Ehrman — this may be your original source. Or, someone close to him that knows he has a sense of humor. Thanks for posting this!

The Jesus Facebook reminds me of this:

Wow, poor Bart Ehrman
. I definitely chuckled at the Dan Brown stuff, but didn’t expect Ehrman to take it in the teeth quite so much (for those curious, his latest book is called Jesus, Interrupted. A pretty typical take on ‘why the Bible couldn’t possibly be historical’ type stuff). Fun stuff.
Eugene,
that was awesome. Funny, but also deep – Jesus being distressed, Peter leaving the group, etc.
Thanks!
