So maybe I should develop Christ2.com and flip it for $1 billion dollars in a few years time? God’s price can’t help but go up now that the Depression 2.0 is taking hold and people are turning away from Mammon and returning to the Big Book. Here’s my plan. The site would be focused on taking the social networking phenomenon to the next level: miracles. Users would register on the site and upload their spiritual condition, beliefs, angel sightings, satanic meanderings, hopes, dreams, sexual proclivities (if they’re priests), and prayers.
Prayers are the ‘currency’ that drives Christ2.com. Each user would track in their ‘church’ or ‘biblical account’ ‘congregation’ members they were praying for. They would also be able to track who else was praying the same thing, and who was praying for them; and a demographic as well as a psychographic break down of users — providing a data-enhanced, algorithmic enabled ‘transcendence path’ allowing for exo-corporal digital enlightenment without leaving your keyboard. LOL (laughing out loud) will be seen less on the web, replaced with POL (praying out loud).
The recent surge in food prices, and commodity prices across the globe is not caused by the actions of speculators, as she suggests. Sure, speculators play a part, but blaming speculators for this surge in food prices is like blaming looters for the food shortages and riots in Haiti. Speculators and looters are just grabbing what they can grab while the grabbing is good; they don’t cause the problem.
