Snooze Button Dreams brings up

Snooze Button Dreams brings up the relatively new "superhero" BibleMan. Now, when you read that name, you laughed involuntarily. Or at least smiled. Because it's ridiculous.

(Oh, and of course, we have to have the politically correct BibleGirl too.)

Ya know, speaking as a Christian (obviously--See the subtitle of my website), I have to ask: Do we really need a Christian version of everything? I drove by a Christian bookstore today, and they were selling a Christian weightloss book. Now, really, what can they say different?

But "Bibleman" actually borders on offensive: My faith is too important, too real to be reduced to the same level as a cheesy superhero. Didn't we (as a culture) once have a reverential attitude toward God? What happened?
