It looks like American religious artifacts are becoming big business on eBay.

Not to be outdone by Deb Serio, a Virginia high school teacher who recently nabbed over $1500 for a garage floor stain she said looked like Jesus, Pennsylvania’s Felicia Teske is offering eBay buyers an eggplant slice that may bear the word “God.” Starting price: $1,000. Plus $20 for shipping.

Teske recently purchased her eggplant (aubergine, for you Brits) at a roadside produce stand, according to a local Pennsylvania news channel, and on Sunday evening, as she sliced it up in her kitchen, she saw the word “God” appear in the seeds of one of the slices. Though this El Reg hack is no expert when it comes to eggplants, he’s quite sure the seeds spell “gid” – a brain disease caused by tapeworm eggs. Or an acronym for Gender Identity Disorder

This just proves how smart God is. Since no one knows what he looks like, he showed up in the text version.

    Leave it to you guys to miss the obvious.

    It’s not God, it’s the Christ Child, with his first word: ‘Goo’

    That’s funny…

    So I guess I need to start making iconic Xian images into things like toast or barn doors and selling them on eBay. I wonder what Mustard would pay for Jesus’s face on the cover of a dictionary 🙂

  3. The Monster's Lawyer says:

    20 bucks for shipping?? That’s ludicrous!

  4. Noam Sane says:

    Looks like “Goo” to me. And that’s obscene. Why does God hate America?

  5. jlm says:

    whoever buys this please promptly stop breathing.

  6. KVolk says:

    So If I buy it and eat it does that mean I’m god? I like eggplant parmesean it’s a heavenly dish…..

  7. Noam Sane says:

    I’d buy it, but I don’t like the font.

  8. John Paradox says:

    Apparently god is becoming jealous of Paris Hilton, Britney Spears and Lindsey Lohan…. but can’t go into rehab.

    J/P=?

    And She used all those centuries since dictating those many Holy Texts to learn English too!

  10. Improbus says:

    Can someone explain to me how we know what Jesus looked like? What most people are seeing are images that look like mid-evil and Renaissance artists depictions of Jesus. For all we know, Jesus, if he existed at all, may have looked completely different. Hell, he could have been black.

  11. Satan says:

    #10 – Jesus looked like a cross between Paul McCartney and Chewbacca.

  12. Improbus says:

    I am supposed to believe someone called Satan?

  13. Misanthropic Scott says:

    #6 – KVolk,

    Personally, I can’t stand eggplant in any form. And, it has no nutritional value. As for putting cheese on this, isn’t god cheesy enough already?

  14. KVolk says:

    #13 – Scott

    god is like many vegtables it is more palatable when fried and covered in your choice of toppings.

  15. Steve says:

    It doesn’t say God it says GoG. It’s a message saying Google is God!!! wahahahaha.

  16. Satan says:

    #12 – Believe me? Sure, why not! I’m not the one showing up in the wood-grain and cheesy processed food products of crazy white trash. I have better things to do.

    … but if the whole “evil” thing makes you uncomfortable, just go to the nearest fruit stand or waffle house and seek the wisdom of Goo! or is it Gid…

  17. Satan says:

    … I think it actually says GiL.

  18. Jägermeister says:

    God showed up in my toast!

    Here is a thought for the sake of argument (which is normal in all religious discussions) there is God and Satan.

    Now Satan’s ‘job’ is to get all of us doing all evil nasty things to each other like killing, hating and so on.

    Now what is the best way to accomplish this? Be all hideous looking, smelly and point out that if you do what he wants you will be in for a very nasty time forever?

    NO WAY!! There is a better way…

    This is what Satan would do.

    Satan knows that God refuses to give any proof he exists – so what better way than for Satan to get everyone killing and hating each other than to pretend to be God and “divinely inspire” select individuals from time to time all about God and the heavenly host but change the story around a bit so each version of God is the only God and if you follow the only God you must get rid of the others who are following the ‘wrong’ God or Gods. 😉

    Sort of like the portable toilet gag video – only worse.

    So what say you about that?

    If God could create the universe he could do much better than signing an eggplant! So it must be Satan doing it! 😀

    Cheers

    That’s MISTER Mustard to you, OFTLO.

    “Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image” (Exodus 20:4). Movement of Jah people, oh yeah!

  21. Mister Mustard says:

    >>And, it has no nutritional value.

    Wrong: http://tinyurl.com/38mdx8

  22. Satan says:

    #19 – Again… I have better things to do…. besides, I don’t bother with promoting things like killing and such. (and I DO NOT smell!!) I promote much more hideous sins like premarital sex and drinking (good beer – that watered down domestic shit is God’s doing… or maybe Gil’s, not sure on that one). You know, I think I might have to smite you or something for the smelly crack… 😉

  23. OhForTheLoveOf says:

    I imagine that if the Xian version of God and his counterpart Satan were to appear on a debate show… Satan would be far better dressed.

  24. TIHZ_HO says:

    (and I DO NOT smell!!) – Satan

    So what is with all the brimstone then?

    Oh, while I have you – when will you release OS X for PCs?

    Cheers

  25. Misanthropic Scott says:

    #14 – KVolk,

    Yes, and like eggplant in particular, has zero (or close enough for government work) nutritional value.

  26. Misanthropic Scott says:

    #25 – me,

    OK, not exactly zero. So, eggplant has more value than god.

  27. Mister Mustard says:

    I will pray for your immortal soul, Scottie (your mortal one is pretty much fucked). Whence cometh all the hatred? The intolerance? The grandiosity? Can it all be due to having your silly little illusion of being a dangerous, naughty boy dismissed?

  28. Satan says:

    #24 – Brimstone is of God… not from me. God’s the smelly one. As a matter of fact, my nick name for him is “Ol’ Smelly”. He’s such a sissy about it, though. Always whining and smiting. Everyone thinks he’s so nice and forgiving and tolerant….. not so. He’s kind of a narcissistic jackass. Of course, he’s so wrapped up in his own crap he usually sends his kid or his girlfriend to show up in things like wood grain or garage floor cement. (he’s also a cheap bastard. That’s why you always see them showing up in such cheesy crap. He’s too cheap to upgrade to something nicer.) As for OS X? Linux is more evil. (Evil in a good way, of course. – Not M$ evil…. I don’t go there.)

    Hail ME!!!

  29. Ralph the School Bus Driver says:

    #28, Satan,

    So, what’s the scoop ‘tween you and god? You guys not talking?

    Hey, ‘nother important question. How does Santa Claus fit into all this “invisible guy in the sky” crap?

    Do you know the Flying Spaghetti Monster personally? Is he more of a Ramen or a Catelli kind of god?

  30. hhopper says:

    Your last name’s not Cramden is it?

    Naaaah!
