but looking like complete jackholes in doing so.

"Hey, we're going to honor the suffering of our lord and savior whom we believe was brutally tortured to death... by temporarily denying ourselves one of the many luxuries we enjoy in our blissful first world lives."

Give me a fucking break. As if there wasn't already enough religious hypocrisy in the world.
