    “Everything you need is already included.” Sounds like baking instructions, yeah, seriously.

    Okay, I think this whole entire concept is hilarious. And I didn’t know Hindus could also be called “Hinduist.” How come I’m not Muslimist then?

    I think, at the moment, I’m finding this too amusing. I gotta go think about it before leaving a real comment. I will concede, however, that I find this description slightly disturbing: “This is the concept behind the Plug ‘n’ Pray concept: religion is no longer a mystical experience or a personal journey to get closer to our transcendent inner dimension – it belongs now to the FCG (Fast Consumer Goods) segment.”

    Great, just what we need.

    Oh My God, this is nuts.

    But you know what? it had to happen eventually. They’ve commercialized everything else already.

    Yeah, it’s kind of on the border between funny and worrying.

    I think I’ve heard someone call Muslims ‘Islamists’ before. I guess that makes me a Christianist or something.

    My initial reaction was to laugh, then worry, then be concerned about the actuality and authenticity of this product.

    I think I maybe a “Muslimistic”.

    And people wonder why organized religion doesn’t work. Ha! This product not only organizes, it categorizes, it streamlines it and finally it makes it all user friendly.

    It seems that the site is just a joke. Under the Buy Now button for the kits, it says “No Cash, No Credit Card.”

    Then on the buy page, they say: “Plug’n'Pray kits are not yet available… ;-) but you can became a Plug’n'Pray supporter: buy a Plug’n'Pray Tshirt.”

    Note the wink smiley.

  8. adnan Says:

    the proper term is “muslamist” or a “muslamic”

    in either case the concept is funny. It’s all done in jest so I doubt there’s anything to really worry about. Altough the Hindus might object to the term Hinduist.

    All night, last night, I kept thinking that I need to express my reaction to this. I finally figured out:

    ‘Goodness gracious great balls of fire!’

    One more phrase down.

    you can’t just say it. there’s a song and dance that goes with that.

  11. Jaded Says:

    Thank goodness it was just a joke eh.

  12. Christop Says:

    Sounds like it’s just a commentary on organised religion then.

    Man…
    the other day I came across a site where you get a quotation for your soul. You do this quiz and they tell you how much your soul is worth. I got a measly figure, maybe because I hadnt been baptised. ANyway what was freaky was that they wrote that if you do the quiz, your soul is kept by the company till death. Rules and guidelines.

  16. phathima Says:
