Kirk Cameron

Favorite Post #11 - Kirk Cameron

Have you ever thought what it would be like if Kirk Cameron and Bono got into a street fight to see who is the best famous Christian? Just a no holds barred, anything goes donnybrook? No? It's just me then, huh? Well here is what I think it would look like:

Kirk Cameron:"Look Bono, even before I became really well known for my Christianity I was providing nice, appropriate laughter to millions of people on the hit show, 'Growing Pains.'"

Bono:"Was that the one with Tony Danza? I get those all confused. Well, while you were making sitcoms that paved the way for 'Two and a Half Men,' I was touring the world singing songs with hidden Christian meaning to millions of people."

Kirk Cameron:"Fair enough, but I work with a powerful ministry called 'the way of the master.' Not only do we have an official crest and a series called "Hell's best kept secret," but my partner has a mustache and everyone knows there is something inherently spiritual about mustachioed men."

Bono:"Ha, that is hilarious. I touched more hearts than you'll ever reach with my Super Bowl performance after 9/11 and I've allowed Christian musicians to cover my music for years. I didn't even gripe when my songs were covered and suddenly deemed acceptable for Christian radio just because a Christian band was doing them. And don't forget my work in Africa."

Kirk Cameron:"Oh please, you have a guy named "edge' in your band. Who changes their name to 'edge?' And didn't you swear at the Grammy's one year?"

Bono: "Whoa, low blow, Mike Seaver, low blow. Don't you have a photo shoot you need to be doing with the Jonas Brothers for the magazine Tiger Beat?"

Stephen Baldwin:"Guys, there's no need to fight. I'm the best famous Christian."

Bono:"Bio-Dome's Stephen Baldwin, what are you doing here?"

Stephen Baldwin:"I have a skate ministry and since Stuff Christians Like refuses to give me my own entry I had to crash your entry."

Kirk Cameron:"None of this matters. I've just been toying with the both of you?"

Stephen Baldwin:"Why do you say that?"

Kirk Cameron:"Simple, I was in the movie version of 'Left Behind.'"

Bono:"You win."

Stephen Baldwin:"Thanks for having me. Good game. Jon give me a call. I'll give you a free Rob Roskopp old school skateboard."

You've never honestly had that scenario in your head while you're pumping gas or mowing the lawn? Not even a little bit?
I am weird.
p.s. Bono's confession of faith with Bill Hybels was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. That's how I took it, but I think some other people can make some interesting arguments in the opposite direction.
