Bible stories, anyone?

Bible stories, anyone? On this, el dio de los muertos, perhaps we should take time out from our mundane existence to explore the spirit world. Thus this handy link to Bible stories, brilliantly illustrated with...Legos! (from bifucated rivets)

Thanks, Lynsey! I was going to post this yesterday, but I didn't get around to it. This is great fun, even if you don't know much about the Bible. And these aren't just for kids, either!

panopticon, how could you say that? I built a panopticon myself out of legos at one point (although I don't think I got the acoustics quite right -- gotta get me some parabolic legos).

I am going to hell because this made me giggle.

The Maori Christians, if there are such a thing, should love that web site. Beautiful photography, in addition to all the work that went into building the sets.

The Garden of Eden (until things went bad) would certainly have been a nicer place to hang out than the Lego concentration camp.

Isn't it "La dia"?

It's "El dia," actually.

That is an absolutely wonderful site! I especially love the ratings system.

supergoat: thank you, I hadn't had the nerve to correct it, but "el dio" had been gnawing at the back of my brain all dia.

I especially like the comic book style commentary on some of the panels.

The story of Noah's insobriety is great. I've just learned how to properly feel shamed by my own body!

And God said, "Let There Be LEGO!" And there was lego. And it was good.
