I've solved it! - Now the Jesusland watch thread.

Every now and then a Llamasoftie will say something interesting. Honestly! This is where we will keep these topics so that they don't get deleted.

The email was a copy of the JesusLand graphic.

40 recipients on the email.

This is the fastest meme propagation I have ever seen.

Interestingly, most of the blogs do not credit the source, and those that do credit the WRONG source.

it's all over USENET!

It was doing the rounds at my gf's office.

Welcome to the Jesusland watch thread.

Good grief there are some scary people out there.

If a civil war breaks out in America don't blame me. ;)

Well, there's actually only five threads referring to Kemper's JesusLand.

But I think it will grow exponentially over the next few days.

Someone posted it in a thread on the Political forum on Dream Theater's message board.

I think it's spreading far and wide. :)

The blogs got it first and it's on a hell of a lot of them, virtually
all the big news/current affairs/politics blogs, many with hundreds
of comments. I've even noticed Jesusland cropping up as a noun
in other articles now. It's also way to late for tagging as there
are a lot of copies of the image. I dare say in a few days time
Google will return many results once it's been spidered.

I think there's a misconception about religions here.

Communist countries -- where atheism was the religion of state and the only allowed religion -- didn't prove to work better...

Guy I know from Germany just sent me a link to a copy of it, doesn't believe me that it didn't originate from the place it claims it does either... Really should have put a watermark or something on it ;)
Nothing is worth the effort you put into it.

This is amazing!

I've already done some spreading myself.

I printed it out and stuck it to the window in work today, I also sent a copy to my Mum (who works for the Lib Dems) and there are photocopies of it stuck all over her office now too. She, in turn has emailed it to loads of other people... ...

It's a stroke of genius KB. :D

Indeed. What he said. :)

The internet is a very cool thing.

Oh fuck it's starting to get onto news sites. Syndicated
in the Canadian press in the last half hour or so.

Canadian YakYakers tell me if it turns up on your news
or in your papers. :)
