Art inspires art. This art, found on the sidebar, inspired me.
I choose to respond in haiku. You may respond as well, but we will only accept comments in haiku. (5-7-5 for those of you who don’t remember high school English….) Here are some thoughts to get you started:
Surprised Asian man:
Surprised because this Jesus
hails from fair Gondor?
Benjamin Franklin!
Even with your syphilis
you are on God’s side.
Smug Hollywood man
you are liberal and bad
but I would date you.
Blond business woman
you rate no commentary.
Where are your children?
Abraham Lincoln
freed the slaves and also starred
in a musical.
Professor Darwin
Educational elite!
I like chimpanzees.

Oh, I almost forgot. Here’s a haiku I wrote a while back about limericks:
There once was a man,
From Nantucket he did come.
What fate befell him?
(This came about because I’ve never been able to find out what line comes after “There once was a man from Nantucket”.)

*monocle pops out*
What abominable rot
Is this? Good day, sir!
October 1, 2009 at 4:54 pm
Please say it’s satire
Mocking the right wing nutjobs
Who think this nonsense
October 1, 2009 at 6:17 pm
Jack and Jill went up
the hill to fetch a pail of
water. Dude, the end.
October 1, 2009 at 6:21 pm
I know professor
A nun who teaches Darwin
Damn her godless soul.
October 1, 2009 at 6:43 pm
College student good
College professor evil
How can this be so?
October 1, 2009 at 10:21 pm
Darwin is too soft
Professor should hold Dawkins’
The God Delusion
October 1, 2009 at 10:23 pm
Ziff, LOL!
October 1, 2009 at 10:40 pm
Sorry, no haiku. I just couldn’t help but be reminded of this political cartoon:

That Jesus would fit so much better.
October 1, 2009 at 11:10 pm
SGarff FTW!
Gun-toting, muscled, tattooed
Jesus is awesome!

Why is that woman
Who wants to keep her baby
Over with those guys?
October 2, 2009 at 12:09 am
Who is the father?
She’s not sure who to name in
paternity suit.
October 2, 2009 at 12:27 am
Pregnant lady points
accusatorily. Says,
“Preacher knocked me up!”
October 2, 2009 at 1:57 am
Oh, noble painting
Spawns new form of poetry:
the Uruk-haiku.
October 2, 2009 at 4:32 am
Prof’s blurb is missing
Possessive apostrophe.
That just drives me nuts.
October 2, 2009 at 8:11 am
At least the Soviets
Were upfront about their use
Of propaganda.

You know you’ve arrived
When your painting makes it on
The Huffington Post
October 6, 2009 at 10:10 pm
HuffPo, den of libs –
McNaughton warned us of you!
Palpatine’s bloggers.
October 6, 2009 at 10:48 pm
One more PR coup!
Hails from the Palpatine side,
Andrew Sullivan.
October 7, 2009 at 12:10 am
Dude seriously
This painting makes my sides hurt
American christ
October 7, 2009 at 7:30 am
We are all so smug,
But I fear that the painting
Speaks for the masses.
October 7, 2009 at 8:02 am
Think of Bob Dylan
Who wrote a great song about
God on our side.
October 7, 2009 at 2:13 pm
Dumbed-Down Forefathers

Don’t worry JC:
If Satan does come closer
I’ll Darwin his ass.
October 7, 2009 at 7:35 pm
Blasphemer sullies
God’s nature, see the end of
Matthew 25.
Further, never knew
Jesus was an Aryan man.
Fair-haired yehudim?
Of course, soldiers there.
Constantine f***ed up

Me again!
Deniers of Christ
Among those standing behind
Historians cringe.
White House not painted
The Son as Executive?
Again, blasphemy!
Christian speaking here,
Painting reflects apostates
Weds force to my God.
October 7, 2009 at 8:44 pm
A little deeper:
Adventists flee
for their Christian liberty
from these ideas.
Tertullian asks:
“What has Athens to do with
Jerusalem?” but
I respond: “Athens?
Aren’t Rome and Jerusalem
stranger bedfellows?”
October 7, 2009 at 8:57 pm
Violence, empire
contradict the Lord’s Gospel
Rome on Great Salt Lakes?
Why are ASIANS good
yet absent of white Jesus?
I do resent that!
Oh, wait, I get it!
Few yellow Mormons means
Absence of Gospel.
Presbyterians
laugh at McNaughton because
they’re all Korean!
It’s apparent that
LDS stand beyond Calvin’s
elect, they blaspheme!
“My kingdom is not
of this world,” so are Yankees
foreign aliens?
The Lord will punish
this nation for its abuse
of his Holy Name.
October 7, 2009 at 9:21 pm
Dropped a syllable in my original post…fixed:
Think of Bob Dylan
Who wrote a great song he called
“With God On Our Side.”
October 7, 2009 at 9:34 pm
Apologies if my previous posts come off as confrontational – they’re commentaries on McNaughton’s art and worldview, and not stabs at anyone present.

October 7, 2009 at 9:39 pm
Sook, please don’t worry!
Your worst crime by far, no doubt
is haiku failure.

October 7, 2009 at 9:45 pm
Failure? You slay me.
Am I truly so awful?
I did try my best!
October 7, 2009 at 9:47 pm
Haikus are stupid
You all think you’re so clever
You’re wrong so just quit.
October 7, 2009 at 9:49 pm
Aaron’s got a point.
I’mma peace out for the night.
It’s been real, people!
October 7, 2009 at 10:03 pm
De do do do de

October 7, 2009 at 11:13 pm
Like one thousand cranes
Haiku cannot change what is
only what becomes
October 8, 2009 at 12:37 am
Evanescent praise
Lest an addict I become
Vainglory denied

No Haiku this time,
Just a site with new descriptions of the painting:

Old wine in new skins.

As spring’s youth to summertime

The spoof site is great,
But its targets never saw
End of Evangelion.
Judicial review-
Surely one of the many
Fruits of Satan’s church.
Don’t tell McNaughton
About Deism! Liberal
Bias, it must be.
I like Reagan- peace
Through having more nukes than the
Dirty Communists.
Speaking of commies,
How’d Eisenhower get here?
Great Society?
Ricky Gervais? I
Think Mr. Hollywood is
Sean Bean/Boromir.
If Hollywood is
Sin, what made Reagan so great?
Must’ve been the Contras.
October 8, 2009 at 6:19 pm
My writing teacher
docked points off of my poems.
Ugh. Back to Haiku.
Anyone notice
the site is called “McNaughton
Fine Art?” Ironic.
October 8, 2009 at 7:00 pm
The Second Coming
Jesus judges living, dead
Who will make the cut?
Telestial left
Terrestrial in the back
Celestial right
What to do with boy?
Mom on right, dad on the left
Mercy called for here.

Mighty lamenting
Over my first haiku! It’s
Five-seven-seven…
October 8, 2009 at 9:38 pm
This reminds me of
The web site, failblog [dot] com
Epic Fail, I think
One nation for all
The only one that will count
Rest of the world gone?
Worship as we please?
The immigrant clearly thinks
Then how come two sides?
October 8, 2009 at 9:42 pm
Poor supreme justice
He dropped all of his papers
It’s a sad sad day

A subtle name can be read

Good sir knight, Gowain,
We have but one punishment
For faulty haiku.
October 8, 2009 at 9:59 pm
Pray tell, good lady,
What punishment will befall
Me for my poems?

But it has a greater pull

Laughing at the court justice
