Dr. Gary Cass, CEO of the really wacky right wing Christian Anti-Defamation Commission weighed in as upset over actor Jack Black’s interpretation of Jesus in Funnyordie.com’s Prop 8: The Musical written by Marc Shaiman:
Jack Black should remember from his days at Hebrew School that homosexual acts aren’t funny and are roundly condemned in the Bible. Appearing as a sarcastic, rotund Christ, Black distorts the Bible and condones shameful, homosexual acts. Associating Christ with perverse activity is an affront to all people of faith, especially Christians. Apparently Black and company find it hilarious to falsely accuse Christians while they intentionally distort the Bible. Black ought to apologize.
Judging by his use of the words "roundly" and rotund," it seems Dr. Cass prefers his Christ with a lean swimmer’s body…

Michael Phelps would be a better Jesus?
Hebrew school teaches sex ed? Who would have thought it! Sounds like Hebrew school beat the snot outta Sunday School.
Interesting dog whistle there, “Hebrew School.”
“Not only did they Kill Our Lord, now they portray Him as a fatso.”
I like to picture my Jesus in a tuxedo t-shirt…..
ROFL!
It didn’t take long for a christofascist to show up and distort the charge of Bible distortion. Talk about missing the point.
Does Dr. Cass have a Husky Boy messiah complex?
What really annoyed the frack out of me was when I saw that the Mormons portrayed Jesus with short hair! It was longer than a crewcut, but still, I was used to the Jesus with hair at least a few inches lower than his collar. Totally unsat* to portray a short-haired Jesus!
*military term – short for “unsatisfactory” as in “Unsat! Drop! Gimme 20!”
I like my Jesus with a swimmers build and a gram or two of crack.

I believe the actual drug of his (that closeted, heavy in denial H O M O S E X U A L named Haggard is Meth.
