Gimme dat Christian Side Hug.
 

christians = gods punch line. the joke is life

lol'd so hard

We're friends again pbradley.

Hit my fist like President Obama

*digital side hug*

Islam/Hinduism/Buddhism/Sikhism/Judaism *

* delete as appropiate.

athiests and agnostics are just as bad tho

Is nothing sacred?

agreed. I don't know whats worse.. the 7th Heaven rap group, the horrible choreography or the direct insult to Jesus' taste thinking he would appreciate such God-awful imitation music.

I still don't get it. Are they saying full-frontal hugs are too *racy* or something or that guys shouldn't hug frontally due to the slight chance their penors might touch...

Seriously, this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-NOZU2iPA8 is 100x better than side hug even though it looks like Scarface and the Osmonds binged on llello and spawned.

Not only guys shouldn't hug but anyone not married. Penor contact with vagoo inspires sinful thoughts.

That's just going too far. I know DEVOUT Christians that would be appalled at the very notion of non-frontal hugs. I'm talking chaste, blood on the sheets Christians.

"Christian youth groups finally have an alternative to normal, aka "front," hugs. As we all know, face to face embraces run the horrific risk of a clothed crotch graze. The Christian Side-Hug (or the CSH, as the kids call it) rids us of sin, as the only below the belt contact will be some good old-fashioned hip on hip action.
To help the side-hug fad sweep the nation, let us present this hardcore rap song. Yup, side-hugging has hit the streets. The group has as many emcees as the Wu-Tang Clan and as much power as a barbershop quartet.
Look out for the ominous sirens blasting on the track. Clearly, these are gangsters on the run from the law - probably from side-hugging up a storm! One emcee (wearing his bandanna 2pac-style no less) admits to taking part in the forbidden front-hug. But don't worry, God. He's married.
At the end, they all simulate getting shot and dying. We can only hope there are side-hugs in heaven."


this shit is so ridiculous it is not even funny.. Christianity IS ALL ABOUT HUGS! when I go to Ethiopian church, I have to hug EVERYBODY THREE TIMES with the TRI-KISS to the cheeks.. these Pat Roberston types would have a heart attack, and they would be more surprised to find out that Ethiopians are so conservative that aside from Christian hugs and kisses as a greetings, men and women do not touch, they do not hold hands, they hardly even sit within two feet of each other in public...



the iorny is so thick its tangible

I suspect Christianity's tradition of asceticism derives from a strain of Platonism. it's fascinating to consider how many various, and sometimes conflicting, philosophies are in play with the world's most successful missionary religion.

gross!

no hug for you!

I'm certain this is a joke, and not just because of the laughing of the crowd.

i feel dirty for never having done the christian side hug before.

It's no joke.

I think the rapping thing may be a joke, though a very weak, half-ironic joke.

I'm certain, though, that the side hug thing is legit. I actually had the misfortune of being dragged to one of those Youth Ministry Conference things as part of my Confirmation. In fact, it played a big role in my desertion of the faith. That taint of dumb evangelism stood antithetical to what was, and to an extent still is, my spiritual identity.
