Hello friends, believers, and non-believers alike!

Today, we've got a handfull of more awesome questions from folks, so let's get to it!

Stormboy has a couple interesting ones:

I know that the Old Testament doesn't approve of tattoos... but would it be acceptable if it were of Jesus?

Storm, you should know by now that I'm more of a New Testament type of dude.  Lots of cool people have been paying tribute to me for a long time by getting an ink stamp; all I ask is that you be aware that your actions afterwards will be readily identified with me.  If you act like a jerk, people will identify your jerky behavior as one of my recomendations.  The other day, this dude cut me off, then hit the breaks, then turned across three lanes of traffic, giving a couple other drivers the finger.  And he had a 'Christian Fish' on the back of his van.  It was really embarrassing for me.

Storm also wants to know:

Could I get some...umm...lotto numbers for saturday's powerball?

I don't think so.  It's just my opinion (but since I'm the dude with the advanced 'knowledge', it's the only one that matters in this discussion), I don't think a massive addition of wealth will make your life better in the long run.  Taking into account how your friends, family, and your wife will respond to any sudden gains in your bank account, I think you should experience a few more things before you get into the big bucks, just to make sure you're ready for it.  Sorry.

Sarah G Love wants to know:

Dear Jesus, which do you prefer: "Who would Jesus bomb?" OR "Whom would Jesus Bomb?"

Sarah, you're a funny gal!  As you've probably guessed, I am fine with the message of either statement.

And KT_DID~ asks a very important question:

Dear Jesus - Why haven't you answered my prayers?

There's been a LOT of confusion on this point.  See, I wasn't sent to this planet to answer people's prayers (I wasn't really sent to do miracles, either, but there's this big long story behind that which I won't get into now.) -- I was sent to explain a better way to live... and to answer questions!  But one guy sends out a wonky press release, and all of a sudden I'm the "Answers Prayers" Guy.  "Answers prayers" was always supposed to be my dad's job description; but he only clocks-in occassionally, and nobody can fire him.  (We've had discussions about this, believe me!)  Remember that whole Garden of Gesthemene thing I was in that time?  That whole "Father, please lift this burden" prayer I sent to him?  Remember how well that worked-out?

Anyway, if Dad doesn't answer your prayers, I sympathize with you.  If anyone can figure out a way to get the old man off his keester, I'm all ears.

Well, I hope that helped a little.  Keep those cards and letters coming, folks.

Peace out!
