Creepy “Got Jesus?” TV Commercial

Posted in My Life, Soap Box, Faith by n. mallory

I saw the creepiest and most inappropriate commercial last night for a local church.  It starts off looking like one of those sports shoe or drink commercials where they’re going to tell you to “Just Do It” or make you feel that everything is attainable if you just drink their blue sugar water.  There’s a guy on some high man-made structure out in nature.  The sun is shining, he’s drinking from a sports bottle, there’s inspirational music playing, he’s about to bungee jump.  The music climaxes.  He holds up the drink to the sky and then jumps.  The bungee cord isn’t tethered or something.  Letters come up that say “Got Jesus?”

Then there’s a message about the church near the mall.

I swear to God I was was incredibly offended and disturbed.  That’s why I don’t go to church anymore.   Those people are crazy.  It’s much safer for God and I to keep religion between ourselves.
