Jews for Jesus?

The friendly, proselytizing folks at Jews for Jesus are on to something. Get a bunch of Jewish-looking Christians together and target every weak-willed Jew you can find on a subway platform. Shit, if the Jews already believe in an invisible man living in the sky, how hard can it be to convince the poor bastards that the invisible man has a son? They're already sold on the first half of the Bible, for Christ's sake. All you have to do is sell them tickets to the sequel.

If you browse their website, you'll see that the Jews for Jesus are just a Christian organization whose purpose is to convert Jews. Of course, one of the main problems with Jews for Jesus is that the Jews don't need Jesus. This aside, these guys are on to something.

But in a world under attack by Islamic terrorists, Jews for Jesus seems like a rather impractical bunch of religious fanatics. Unless Jesus is a bomber pilot for the U.S. Airforce, Jesus ain't gonna be the one to save us. We don't need a guy named Jesus. We need is a guy named Abdul. Specifically, a guy named Abdul who prefers things like playing Boggle or drinking beer, rather than driving truckloads of explosives into tunnels. Even better, a guy named Abdul who can convince the rest of the guys driving the trucks into doing something a bit more low-key. Or at least drive the trucks in the other direction.

We don't need a "Jews for Jesus". There's another, new organization that might just save the day. Where do I sign up to donate?
