Because the weather’s been pretty terrible in Massachusetts lately.

But also because we have a copy of the Brick Testament that someone gave us a gag gift before we were married, and our daughter found it and she totally loves it and wants me to read her Bible stories all the time.  But they’re all from Genesis and they’re all terrifying, and God acts like a dick in every one of them, and every time I see the drowning Lego baby, it makes me really sad.  Well, I guess that’s one way to make your kid an atheist.

ahhh, I used to LOVE the Brick Testament & I’d COMPLETELY forgotten about it until just now. this was my desktop background for a while in college (I love how God’s looking on all “hm yes good”):

the amount of work that went into that project is mindblowing. & also yeah, most Bible stories are really creepy & disturbing at their core, particularly when illustrated via Legos.
