Who or what is Buddy Christ?
See the Kevin Smith film "Dogma" for the origins of your avatar. Jay & Silent Bob's schoolyard potty humor aside, it's got a great underlying theme about the emotional and spiritual crisis of losing faith and why being open to new ideas about God sometimes serves us better than clinging to crumbling belief systems. If I had ever written a screenplay to illustrate my own experiences with, and notions about organized religion, it would have been very much the same story, perhaps without the Golgathan...
Had a friend in high school who often sang a song he'd learned in church camp, that started out: "Jesus is my buddy, he's with me all the time"...I can never recall how the rest of it went, but it always made me grin.
