“OBEY DONUTS” is perhaps a bit over the top, but I’m not so sure that the site owners or most of the contributors are fundies. A lot of this stuff seems useful for anybody who teaches Sunday School to preschoolers.

Maybe all Sunday School crafts and bible-themed snacks are a little silly or spooky. I remember being rather creeped out by the God’s Eye I made in my short incredulous time at Sunday school at the local mellow mainline Presbyterian church. (That poor Sunday school teacher. I wanted to talk difficult theology, she wanted to talk cookies. Funny thing — now that I’ve grown up, I’d much rather talk cookies.)

In an effort to improve my blood pressure, I’ve decided to try and think of fundamentalists the way I think of overly hard-core trekkies. People who have taken a mildly interesting story or two and gotten way too obsessed with it. So they warp both the story and their lives out of shape in an effort to make the two congruent…

Whenever I pass a donut shop, it is difficult to ignore their cries… “Jesse! Buy us! EEEEEEEEEAT USSSSSSSSS!!!”
