The happy clappy holier than thou attitude of these people makes me sick. And what's all this speaking in tongues crap? And why are their clappy songs always so cringe inducing? Surely if they were so close to God he would have given them better taste.

Those people could be considered to be the ultimate proof that God has no taste:
1. For making them in the first place
2. For favoring them over slightly more valuable people, like lawyers and Congressmen

It's quite funny that this should come up. I have a family member that became "born again". This sticks in my head because of how it was presented. I was dating a guy with long hair and my great uncle decided to let me know that men with long hair are against god and that women with short hair have no glory. I retorted with "Jesus had long hair". He then informed me that everything I had ever seen or heard was a lie. Jesus did not have long hair. The other thing that made this conversation hilarious was the "women with short hair have no glory" part. Most of the women in my family have short hair, including his wife and his mother. I dunno, I just thought that was ammusing!

Why would anyone want to be born again? If I recall, the first time was quite traumantic.

You actually recall that?
I don't know how much of a career being born again could give you, but you could be highly in demand as an information courier for certain unscrupulous spy services!

And also those silly fish they have stuck on the backs of their cars so that they can indicate to each other that they are christians without the Romans finding out!

Get yourself one of those fish with legs sticking out and the word "Darwin" printed inside, and you become a rolling purveyor of apoplexy

I have always thought it would be nice to be able to buy little stick on devils with forks so you can attach them in a fish spearing position.

Or...they could make stickers of frying pans to stick underneath the fish.
