Inspired by The Guardian's April Fool we wondered if it was time for a competition - famous bible stories twittered. EG:

  • OMG!!!! i'm watching Josh on a blowjob walking rnd r city FFS. ROTFLMAO. Hols in 2 weeks. Can't w8. i'll b somewhere hot, hot hot!!!!!!!


If there are enough offerings on this thread we might put it out as a sponsored competition working with a third party.

I've never used Twitter, but it looks like an online version of texting (remember that competition?)

Think I'll sit back and look at other entries before joining in myself....

I actually heard one on the radio last night. It was a Twitter Joseph-Jesus'-dad posted. I don't remember it exactly, but it was something along the lines of:
quote:
marys pregnant but im not the dad. sez its Gods. i think shes usin me 4 my donkey.
There was a bit extra (to use up the 140 characters), but as I said, I don't remember it.

PS - that's the way me and my mates do Twitter. Not text speak - but just tweeting things as they happen.

For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life,nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Very nice, Anselm! I don't know from Twitter, but this works for me.
