What I Didn't Know About Christian Mingle

Posted by SLRT on Sat Jul 21 22:29:13 2012

I've heard so many ads for Christian Mingle that I wondered who was behind them, whether there was some kind of direct church affiliation and what church[es]. Looking at their website with big professions that Jesus is Lord and such, I suspected as much.

Now I see they are run by Spark Networks LLC which also has a number of Jewish dating sites, sites specifically for Adventists, LDS and Catholics, among others, even an interracial dating site.

I once wanted to date Princess Aura, but there is no Emperor Mingle. :(

There might be a Prince Barin hanging around, so just keep your eyes peeled . . .

I'd rather not run into the Mighty Masked Swordsman of Mongo.

So, in other words, their professed Christian attitude is just a way to make money.

Good enough for the tent hucksters, good enough for the high rise hucksters too. :)

Since the whole idea is to meet fellow Christians, the website's own affiliation is entirely irrelevant.

Replace "Christians" with "Jews" and other groups as appropriate.

The ads for their latest idiocy, FarmersOnly.com look like a parody but appear to be about as genuine as their other offerings.

false. Re-read the original post a few more times, you might get the 3 sentences right.

From Blazing Saddles:


[while Mongo is beating the hell out of a bar full of toughs, Bart walks in, dressed as a messenger boy and carrying a box]
Bart: Candygram for Mongo! Candygram for Mongo!
Mongo: Me Mongo.
Bart: Sign, please.
[Mongo grabs the paper and makes some rough scratches on it]
Bart: Thank you.
[He gives Mongo the box and walks out of the bar, putting his fingers in his ears]
Mongo: Mongo like candy.
[he opens the box - BOOM!]
