The Washington Post reports that a Virginia-based missionary group is taking 300 orphans from Banda Aceh to Jakarta, where they will be raised in a Christian children's home. The group, which is run by a Jerry Falwell disciple, said on its website: "Normally, Banda Aceh is closed to foreigners and closed to the gospel. But, because of this catastrophe, our partners there are earning the right to be heard and providing entrance for the gospel." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A5018-2005Jan12.html
What the W. Post fails to mention, however, is that at the age of 12, each tsunami kid adopted by the group will be put to the test and quizzed about their faith. If they fail to accept Hey-Zeus, they will be beaten with reeds. If, by the age of 13, they have yet to come to the Lord, they will be fed to lions in front of a stadium full of howling Javanese.
TKID1 wants to know how he can score one of the tsunami brats. He could use an assistant to polish his shoes, take out the garbage and help with his personal hygienic maintenance. Does anyone know of a website where you can have one of those kids shipped to the States? I've got a Ben Franklin, that's 100 large, ready for the purchase.
