I do suggest you take a few hours or a few days to go through the whole list. Just about each one has further links or a video with it. These are a mix of absurd things that are fun to laugh at, shameless promotion of totally unrelated things I find amusing, and the questions that I think would have worked for me.
- If homosexuality is a sin, are gay dolphins sinning?
- Which is a bigger sin, passing out drunk and naked to be either seen by and/or sexed by your kids OR walking in on your dad while he's passed out drunk and naked, and seeing the twigs and berries?
- What Would Jesus Do?
- What would Jesus NOT do?
- Who would Jesus torture?
- If god is better than we are, how come we can think up unicorns but he can’t make them?
- Same with mermaids.
- Did Jesus have acne as a teenager? Please explain.
- Why is the Brick Testament the best version of the bible?
- Why is christian music so painfully square?
- Is it better to be right or popular?
- Should god be put on trial for crimes against humanity?
- What are some contradictions in the Bible? Please list no fewer than 3. (or was it 5?)
- Why waste Jesus' meager 3 miracle years on earth with petty tricks like turning water to wine and cursing a fig tree?
- Why not water into scotch? Or bourbon? Or beer?
- What does God have against pillows?
- Why is god dependent on human translation efforts to spread his message?
- Will we have sex in heaven?
(Apparently I never get sick of this song - classic for a reason.) - Will we masturbate in heaven? (This isn't a poe. I know people in this program. *facepalm*)
- Will we have competitive eating contests in heaven?
- How many people do you personally know that you think god is sending to hell?
- Doesn't that just suck?
- Will we learn new things, write new stories, sing new songs in heaven? (I love this song.)
- How the heck do you know what heaven's gonna be like? You've never been there!
- Did teenage Jesus wake up with a boner every morning? (Sent in from a Christian reader - thanks!)
- Why do you think we have rainbows? (Please say Noah, please say Noah)
- Are you practicing another religion - going a-whoring - if you do yoga? Meditate? Decorate with feng shui?
- Have you ever talked back to your parents, or have your kids ever talked back to you? Well, the Bible is pretty clear: it's stoning time!
- If Jesus saves us from sins, shouldn't we sin so his act doesn't go to waste?
- What if Satan's the good one and you're worshiping the wrong guy, because the Bible led you astray?
- What is Satan's motive to hurt or harm people, when doing that will only make his opponent more desirable in the Battle For Souls?
- Will you see/hear/think of your friends roasting in hell while you're in heaven? If not, why not? If so, how could you possibly enjoy heaven knowing loved ones are being tortured FOREVER?

- If Jesus said you could move a mountain with faith as small as a mustard seed, why do faith healers wear glasses?
- If Christians can move mountains with their faith, why have mountain top removal and dynamite?
- For literalists: Why does the Bible have to be interpreted literally to have value?
- How do you know St. Paul was really inspired by God and not just crazy? What if he turned god's own plan for salvation into something completely different? Could that explain god's apparent personality change between the Old and New Testaments?
- If god supposedly loves humans why has he killed so many people?
- For Catholics/Methodists/Episcopalians: Instead of doing a tiny amount every Sunday over and over, why can't all the priests get together and bless all the water in the oceans into Holy Water once and for all?
- How do you know if a voice in your head is God, Satan, or your own thoughts?
- Would you obey God no matter what he asked you to do?
- For creationists: Should we teach the controversy for all subjects, or just biology?
- Is it really a "sacrifice" to die for a couple days, in exchange for godhood, immortality, and billions of people worshiping you and martyring themselves for you?
- How is the torture Jesus suffered at the hands of the Romans (assuming for arguments sake that he did) any greater or more noble or crueler than what the US government has done to devout Muslims and other "enemy combatants"?
- Why is Jesus' story so strikingly similar to those of other messiahs and demigods?

- Why don't bees go to heaven?
- What the hell are you doing talking about Revelation? Don't you know it's heretical?

- How was Jesus different from a cult leader?
- Why foreskins? (Seriously.)
- You probably find this song offensive, but is it scripturally incorrect? (Or: Could it be supported by scripture?)
- You probably find this quote from Richard Dawkins offensive, but is it scripturally incorrect? (Or: Could it be supported by scripture?)
- Did God get his butt kicked by Jonas Salk?
- In a natural disaster, would you rather have a true believing Christian on your side or a lifelong atheist?
