Speaking in Tongues

Well, Speaking in Tongues, has started on SBS, with the sacreligiously hilarious John Safran and the grumpy old priest Father Bob.

Tonight they've had shoplifting, designer jeans, prostitution and Muslim scholarship so far. Rather peculiar! They've got Kate Holden, who is an ex-prostitute who recently wrote a book, and a Muslim/Islam scholar who is wearing a strange combination of a pink headscarf (African-style) and pink kaftan. Although it matches, it makes the lady look like she's attempting to emerge from a giant marshmellow.

And then they jump to another subject... It's a shame that it isn't more well jointed. Currently it seems to be rather disjointed, sort of like the news or something similar.

*coughs* Horseshit, horseshit *coughs*

Oh well, it's a shame that it hasn't turned out to be more like John Safran Vs God.

Personally, I don't CARE what car Father Bob drives.

Still, it is interesting to have more faith/religion-oriented shows on TV. Especially with a man who is a Zoarastrian on tonight, which is an old Iranian faith which apparently dates back to Alexandrian times. Interestingly, the religion doesn't accept converts - you have to be born into it.

So there was my interesting thing for the night :)

And they've got some sort of thing happening with telling single people of any religion to write in to find someone of another religion to hook up with. Blah!

Very interesting thing with a former man who was in Jemaah Islamiah, an Egyptian terrorist group.

You can also send in quips and little snappy lines to be put up on the church noticeboard. So put your brain into over-drive and send some line in to them at mailbox@speakingintongues.com.au... special moments.

Father Bob makes me in the morning look like sunshine and roses o.0

Yikes.

Tune in next week? I'll think about it...
