A Robot Saves Jesus, and The Week in Wales!

by Michael Swaim

It’s all right everyone. You can put down the torches, pitchforks, and Jew-nets; the baby Jesus has been found.

Yes, the Florida Jesus taken from a community center last week has been recovered, thanks to the aid of a GPS device embedded deep within Him.

There are many reasons to celebrate: restored sanctity, the triumph of justice, and the sad irony that the thief was an eighteen year old girl who lived across the street and is now in jail on $3,500 bail for stealing a statue worth $1,200 ($800 for the statue, $400 for the GPS).

Clearly, this harsh, financially burdensome punishment of an innocent prank is, in the acronym of the Chosen, WJWD.

But one thing about this story troubles me, and it’s something I think the Palm Beach Post has overlooked at their own peril. By implanting an electronic device into our Lord and Savior, these people have successfully created the world’s first robotic Jesus.

Crude, yes, but with a little imagination, one can see the horrifying consequences ten, twenty years down the line, when the Jesus-bots finally decide they’ve had enough and start hurling electrified crosses and stigmata-rays.

And to make matters worse, it was a baby Jesus statue. And who’s going to have the stones to gun down a baby? All you have to do is hesitate, and His laser eyes are on you.

Hey kids! Let’s play Headline Mad-Libs!

“A Florida GPS Device Helps Police Find Missing Baby Jesus”

Becomes:

“A (place)(noun) Helps (concerned figure) Find Missing (Christmas icon)”

Becomes:

“Welsh Children Help Squirrel Find Missing Santa Claus”

I don’t really have much more to say about the article itself—near as I can tell, some snot-nosed brats tromped through the mud with a greasy ex-con in a sweltering mascot costume looking for a fat bearded man hired from a street corner that morning. You know, Christmas.

All I want to draw your attention to is this list of schools who participated in the event:

Participating schools included: Ysgol Clocaenog; Ysgol Cyffylliog; St Asaph VP infants School; Ysgol Caer Drewyn, Corwen; Ysgol Llandrillo; Ysgol Maes Hyfryd, Cynwyd; Ysgol Ysbyty Ifan; Ysgol Llangwm and Ysgol Dinmael.

Based on this list (which is my second ever impression of the Welsh people in any sense), I have concluded that Wales is a country populated by Cthulhu Cult members, bent on bringing the Destroyer out of his Eternal Slumber and dooming us all.

Our only hope is a vast army of robot Jesuses to stave off the ancient monstrosity. Now there’s some Holiday entertainment I’d pay to see.

    Not only is their language terrifying, but their national pastimes are rugby and choir singing.

    So they’re all either spouting 26 constant words at you, singing loudly at you or else running towards you in an attempt to injure you.

  2. Nick Says:

    WWRJD… yes… WW R JD. What would robot Jesus do? Shoot you with lazer eyes. That’s what.

  3. Bacalao Says:

    I bet the priests would still figure a way to molest a robot baby Jebus… they already come lubricated, so I guess that part is out of the way.

    Well Swain, you promised the week in Wales and you delivered. No matter what everyone else says about you, you are a man of your word.

  5. kingmonkey Says:

    Robot Jesus? More of a bionic Jesus, wouldn’t you say? Imagine Bionic Jesus making that familiar “Bionic Man” sound as he saves people’s eternal souls.

  6. Bacalao Says:

    Swain?

  7. Bacalao Says:

    Inswain in the membrane.

  8. Gladstone Says:

    Turns out Swaim is an anagram for Santanist Willing to Anger Immaculately-conceived Martyrs.

    That bit of Welsh there is nothing - check this out (supposedly one of the longest place names in the world) ….Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-llantysiliogogogoch is an actual place in Wales which translates as “The church of St. Mary in the hollow of white hazel trees near the rapid whirlpool by St. Tysilio’s of the red cave”

    p.s. another Welsh pastime is shagging sheep.

  10. Ross Says:

    As i pointed out earlier Bennet, there’s parts of our country that do that too.

  11. Michael Swaim Says:

    Gladstone just gave me a wordplay orgasm.

    Also: INSWAIN IN THE BRAIIIIN!

  12. Monkey Pants Says:

    Nobody fucks with da Jesus.

  13. Lindsay Says:

    There’s already the robot devil, right? I mean, it was only a matter of time.

  14. glendoor42 Says:

    I am the Walrus; The Big Lebowski is funny as hell

  15. Bacalao Says:

    I guess if you’re gonna shag an animal, might as well pick a sheep. They’re soft and cuddly and… mmm… I’ll come back later, gotta go “blog” about a sheep.

  18. Andy Pants Says:

    If I were confronted by a ten foot tall robo-jesus I think I would convert on the spot.

    That’s why religions are always struggling for members, no-one thinks outside the box.

  19. Bacalao Says:

    chloe: fuck you
