So is there a point to this collection of links bereft of context (aside from some sort of snarky swipe at religion/messianism)?

I think he's trying to say Jesus is having his Second Coming.

Once again confounded by the lack of a "irredeemable pile of crap" flag. "Other" it is, then. Again.

Come on, can't you even tie all those together for us on this thread? A little help here.

I used 'it breaks the guidelines.' Would love a FAIL flag, though.

Her husband, who shares the same profession as Saint Joseph, is in fact called Adolfo Jorge Huaman.

So first you give us a link to how Jehovah's Witnesses are wrong. Then you give us a link about a poem that appears to be about the second coming but is really about the Iraq War. Next a link about a lunar eclipse back in February. And finally a link to a couple that named their kid Jesus.
So here is my response to your "OMFG" post:
WTF?

That seems to be a Latino-only thing. You rarely meet a Jesus O'Neal. Although a Jesus Birnbaum would kind of make sense.

Presumably the Dawkins tag is to push it closer to some sort of high point of shitposting. Of course, without baby Jesus being born to a clinically obese woman, with a bunch of declawed cats, and an article on obesity, conception, and childbirth, this effort is an amatuerish fail.

I think these tags were designed with the single purpose of pissing the hell out of Richard Dawkins when he one day stumbles upon this post.

The last link is what's known as a human interest story. The prior links are added for context and humour. "OMFG" is obvious sarcastic hyperbole. This post would have been saved by its own tweeness were it not for the darwin tag.

Oh, you already know perfectly well that they'd just use "Joshua" instead.
I keep refreshing and refreshing, and yet this is still here....
