A few of the agents gave us staged reactions for the video, posing as regular train riders. One regular and one skin-colored pair underneath. Last year we acted like we had staged a prank at a funeral.įilming the beginning of the video in an empty park with Agent AdamsĪgents arrived at the meeting point wearing two pairs of underwear. We post prank videos year-round, so for April Fool’s Day we like to change things up and try to fool our online audience. I think most folks who fell for it assumed that it was an April Fool’s joke on the people riding the train, not on them. We saw several major news blogs around the world reporting it as fact. We were pretty surprised at how many people actually fell for it. The “uncensored” version of the video embedded above will show you what we actually looked like. Although we claimed that 1,000 people had exposed their genitals on the train, we actually just filmed 20 actors wearing skin-colored underwear, and then pixelated the footage to make them look naked.
Produced by Charlie Todd and Matt Adams / music by Tyler Walkerįor April Fool’s Day this year, we uploaded a new video that made it look like we had staged a No Underwear Subway Ride (in the tradition of our annual No Pants Subway Ride event.) The video was a hoax. You can save sixty souls from Hell in time it takes to boil a three-minute egg.(Watch No Underwear Subway Ride Uncensored in HD on YouTube) Oh and i found several comedy gems researching this, i'll post the least offending one: regardless of whether the inventors of christianity tried to put in the vague idea of purgatory, the church's driving purpose behind pushing the idea was to get more church members, not some nobler purpose of fully interpreting their texts. You can find just about anything, including purgatory, if you look and interpret hard enough. I don't see nothing in 2 samuel 12, you'll have to show the line or interpretation a quick glance and i got nothing.Ģ macabees 12 to to me looks like it could be interpreted as several things. That might be interesting to read to round out the christian mythos. Basically, buy me a phat house and pay for my luxurious lifestyle and God will let you pass on the cleansing.
This ugly side of purgatory was the abuse it served at the hands of some clergy by which they tought their faithful that this time could be minimized or eliminated through induldgences. This prayer for the departed was affirmed at the Second Council of Lyons in 1274, but it wasn't until around the 1550s at the Council of Trent that the concept of the actual place, Purgatory, was defined as an official doctrine.Īs it currently stands in the Catholic Church, the idea is that God forgives due to the sacrifice of Christ but we don't forgive ourselves and the "wound remains" so to speak of having sinned so we hang around in purgatory trying to pretty ourselves up for God's court. If, upon death, we are judged, the concept of prayer and intercession implies a position in between saved and damned. The key belief behind all of this, and a point of dissent between the various Christian churches is whether or not praying for the departed serves any purpose. The justification for Purgatory is in such scriptural references as 2 Macabees, 2 Samuel 12, etc in which references are made to prayer for the departed helping in cleansing their souls so that they may enter heaven. Purgatory allows you to "clean up" your soul, as only perfect souls are allowed into Heaven proper.Īt least, that's the justification I learned in class.

It was made to resolve the problem of how to let imperfect/sinful beings into Heaven. Technically purgatory is just some shit they made up a few hundred/thousand years after they made the rest of it up to get more followers.
