The Family Research Council wants Americans to fall to their knees in prayer on July 5, 2009. Check out the event’s very special logo…

It seems to me that the FRC’s logo cries out for dirtier parodies. Care to whip a few up, Sloggers? Send ’em in, I’ll post ’em here.

  1. I’ll be doing my part. On the morning of July 5th I will leave my apartment completely naked and walk down 15th to the U District (switching to Roosevelt at 65th, so plan your viewing spot accordingly). All who see me will spontaneously fall to their knees in supplication at the sight of my magnificent, pendulous manhood.

  2. Thanks for the link!

    Oh, and check out the “All Aboard Upholstery” ad positioned to the right of this post. It basically is a parody!

  3. I’m just struck by the design fail of the original. If they’d had him facing the other way he would have looked like the number 2 and it would have worked so much better.

  4. @2, this brings to mind a Cartman lyric: “I wanna get down on my knees and start pleasing Jesus. I wanna feel his salvation all over my face.”

  5. CALL TO FAIL? The text could have used a bit o’ work too. And isn’t that figure facing Mecca? Was Mr. Xtian Artist dreaming about some swarthy Arab while he whipped this up?

  6. I thought the whole reason we had this here country what with the revolution and all was so that we wouldn’t have to kneel to anyone any more.

    Why do so many people want to be slaves? Why did we even bother with all this establishing freedom business, anyway? Bleagh.

  7. @11 – Totally agree. This logo is really stupid and the “2” makes no sense – it isn’t related to a date or time but to Second Chronicles, which doesn’t jump to mind for Christians when they hear that number (not to me, and I’m Christian). It begs to be mocked – what were they thinking? And tieing it to July 4th reinforces the sterotype of American Christians – the rest of the World be damned! Can’t wait to see the parodies.

    It’s easier than shooting fish in a barrel, hell, it’s easier than LOOKING at fish in a barrel.

    I think it’s their repressed homosexuality coming out and they don’t even recognize it.

  9. Proper Christian prayer is done in the closet, on the hill, in the field, wherever, but alone, so it’s just you and God.

    The pew is just a device of control.

    Oh, yeah, and the position is arms out, hands up, face to the sky. The kneeling bit is when swearing fielty (fidelity) to a lord. The Church adopted it to their own ends.

    rob, you’re a genius. give the man some of that homo-frosted wedding cake that’s destroying small businesses (or whatever its doing)!
