"Got a loose firewire"
Via YouTube, here's one of a series of four parodies of the "Mac vs. PC" ads in which a "Christ follower" encounters a "Christian":
The other three are here, here, and here.
As with the ads this series parodies, there's something a little unnerving about the simplicity of the judgments put forth. Organized religion makes for an easy target, but the issues aren't really as black and white as either side portrays them. Still, they make for good fodder for discussion, and the parodies themselves are first-rate.
And in case you're wondering, the post title comes from Part 4 of the series, the silliest of the bunch.
Tip of the mitre to Chris, who, as a recent seminary graduate and current vocational minister is in a good position to argue both sides of the parodies. He's also a Mac user, so he's got that going for him. ;-)
dunno man.. i think there was more grace in the original mac-pc ad than in this parody, which is a little sad.
