It didn't work in ancient Rome, either.

Man Survives Jump Into Lion's Den

46-Year-Old Reportedly Trying To Convert Lions To Christianity

A man was attacked and injured after jumping into a lion's den at the Taipei Zoo and trying to convert the lions to Christianity.

The 46-year-old man leaped into the den of African lions and shouted "Jesus will save you," according to the report. He also said, "Come bite me" before one of the male lions attacked and bit the man.

Video showed the lion ripping a jacket off the man at the zoo in Taiwan's capital, clawing him and then biting the man in the leg.

Zoo workers were able to drive off the lion with water hoses and tranquilizer guns.

The lions were fed earlier in the day otherwise the man might have been more seriously injured or killed.

They should have left his ass in there, it's called "Cleansing the Gene Pool"!

and this guy was in the shallow end of the pool !!

Excuse me, but I thought everyone knew that lions were devout agnostics, and can't be converted! News reports of this type of aberrant behavior on the part of 'missionaries' causes the shortest verse in the Bible to be repeated: "And Jesus wept."

Left our church because I wasn't spiritual.

Wanted a really spiritual pastor.

P.S. The truth be know is that folks like this put a bad name on Christianity. You can be a Christian and sensible, logical, and sain. A sad story.

were used on the wrong animal

[82Rigger]

Nope!

You guys have it all wrong.

That lion is Christian.

If you look at the frame BEFORE the lion attacks the man, you can see the lion saying, "Lord, for this food which I am about to
receive, I am truly thankful..."

After a long hiatus, they are back and trying to push all the hot buttons, again. That outfit from Brooklyn with the ?interesting? little books and sees nothing but doom and gloom has been a ringin my Sunday morning doorbell again. Now that whole deal is getting ten toes over the line of some self-styled Christians meeting the real ?lion? is about to come to fruition. Salvo one looks to be something like ?what part of go away don?t you understand?, then salvo two is ?grrrrrrrrrr? I suppose. Salvo three is still in the definition stage but may look similar to the pic, who knows.

Damn it?s tough to be such a nice guy, eh.

Scamp: when I was in the Airforce living in the barracks I used to get them Bible thumpers from the chapel (with good intentions) knocking on my door at 7am sundays but after you open the door in your long johns with a "Who the hell are you look" they stop wakeing you up after working nite shift when it says NITE Shift on ones door I also had a sign on the door that said "Salesmen use the back door" (My room didn't have one ) But you could always leave a Big Ugly Dog with lots of drool at the front door to keep them away as well
