DVD Review: Do parents leave scathing reviews of the Bible because it contains the Song of Solomon?
Summary: 5 Stars

Years ago, I had a gentleman complain after a Christian event because I used the word "buck-naked" during my show. This offended him, because I guess this is a much more extreme form of nakedness. I mean, being naked is one thing, but we're Christians. We have standards. "Buck-naked" is crossing the line, Buddy.
Welcome to my world.

One of my favorite examples of humor in the Bible is the prophet Elijah who challenges the prophets of Baal in the book of 1 Kings, chapter 18. The people of Israel aren't following God wholeheartedly, but are "limping between two different opinions" like most liberal arts majors. Elijah challenges the 450 prophets of the god Baal to prepare a bull for sacrifice and then place the bull upon an alter without setting fire to it, but instead dousing it with water. He will do the same. Then the prophets of Baal will call upon their god and Elijah will call upon his God and the first deity to ignite the bull is the God. I know. I know. Religions igniting some bull is nothing new. I just wish that somehow I could apply this to Mormon missionaries who knock at our door. First bicycle to burst into flames? Anyway, the prophets of Baal call upon their god from morning until noon when Elijah starts mocking them, saying, "Cry aloud, for he is a god. Either he is musing, or he is relieving himself." Basically, "Maybe your god can't answer your prayers because he's sitting upon his porcelain throne." Traditionally, Christian prayers end with the phrase, "In the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit." In Baal worship, prayers traditionally end with "did you wash your hands?"

This from the Book that is our standard for faith and practice. This instance exhibits deliberate sarcasm and mockery and is scatological in nature. From whence does our prudery come? Certainly not the Bible. I have nearly abandoned making this case with many of my fellow Christians, because as one brother put it after our long debate over my use of the word buck-naked, "Just because the Bible talks about it, doesn't mean we should." Okay, then. Just because he's an idiot, doesn't mean I should call him one.

Christians are primarily concerned about content, rather than context. We seem to want everything filtered through the eyes of a seven-year old. I understand that we should have the faith of a child, but does this mean all of our jokes have to be knock-knock jokes? There is standup comedy for grownup Christians, just as there are funny vegetables for kids. It is up to each parent to decide when they want their children exposed to various life issues, which in this comedy DVD will be over the heads of most children. Do parents leave scathing reviews of the Bible because it contains the Song of Solomon?
