There are many novelty Bible translation projects – the Geordie Bible<\/a>\u00a0– the Cockney Bible<\/a>, the Brick Testament <\/a>(Lego based) – but a new one on me was the Lolcat Bible…<\/p>\n

The peculiar text-msg influenced speech, and an emergent set of stock phrases (based on specific well-known lolcat images from http:\/\/icanhascheezburger.com\/<\/a> – the main lolcat site), make lolcats seem rather\u00a0intriguing\u00a0anyway – but how to do the Bible? First have a\u00a0Theistic\u00a0notion (Ceiling Cat<\/a>) – and go for it:<\/p>\n
