1. Blatant Christian Rip-Offs

I am starting this blog with high hopes and ambition, the same way I did when I started every other blog that was supposed to revolutionize the Christian industry. First I started one with just my name at jamesblewett.com in some hope that I will have purchased the domain name that everybody wanted and someone would offer me a million dollars to buy the domain. However, I already decided before this imaginary event would happen that I would not sell out to the man and my name is not for sale. Then I decided to start a blog about Christianity in the news. The Koran burning idiot from a few years ago gave me a couple easy posts but then I realized I would have to watch the 700 club to continue so I didn't do that.

So what makes this blog different from my previous blogging experiences? Well for starters, I am trying desperately to drive traffic to my website www.youth-sermons.com and subsequently to my book website www.baptizedinfruitpunch.com. But the main reason that this will be different is because I am blatantly and unapologetically ripping off a brilliant man by the name of Jon Acuff (www.jonacuff.com) who has a brilliant blog entitled Stuff Christians Like. But the beauty of this is that Acuff actually started his blog as a ripoff of a brilliant blog entitled Stuff White People Like (www.stuffwhitepeoplelike.com)

This got me to thinking, how else can we rip these people off? Here are some of my favorite ideas:

1. Stuff Worship Leaders Like

A blog dedicated to who has the lowest v-neck and who can dress the most ironically.

2. Stuff Home School Moms Like

Most of it discusses the life lessons from Anne of Green Gables, but there is a great post about how to teach sex ed with a flannel graph

3. Stuff Elderly People Like

Doesn't matter what is on this because the only site elderly people get on is Facebook.

4. Stuff Middle School Boys Like

Sponsored by Axe body spray and a total state of confusion.

5. Stuff Deacon's Like

It's a blank page.



What other blatant Christian rip-offs can you think of?
