Obama The Christian

Barack Obabma is not a jihadi.  Did everyone get that?  Barack Obama is not a Jihadi, repeat, NOT a Jihadi.  That would be amazing if he was though.  Secretly, a closet Jihadi...A president on the rise...He was looking to overtake the white house with Islamic rule, he and Bin Laden would join forces and together they would rule the world!  And America would have a choice...Accept Mohammad as their one and only savior...or strap explosives to themselves and blow up churches across the globe.  There's a great episode of God Loves ME Best! right there. Somebody write that down!

God Loves ME Best censored by Atom Entertainment!

God Loves ME Best episodic trailers are currently being distributed on the Web via Youtube, Blip.tv, Revver, and Myspacetv.  Yesterday we thought we might as well upload to atomfilms.com, one of the oldest film and video content sights on the Web, if not the first.  So I opened an account and uploaded the first in a series of episodic trailers, the following clip:


Several minutes later, after I saw that it had been viewed by Atom Films seven times, I received an email from them stating the following:

Hello MerkabaProductions,

We have found that your clip violates one or more provisions of Section 4 of our Terms of Service, which states that users may not:

“…create a user name or screen name or upload to, distribute through or otherwise publish through the Site any Materials which are indecent, libelous, defamatory, obscene, threatening, invasive of privacy or publicity rights, abusive, illegal, harassing, contain expressions of hatred, bigotry, racism or pornography, or are otherwise objectionable, or that would constitute or encourage a criminal offense, violate the rights of any party or violate any law.”

Wow! Please watch this video and let me know if you think I have violated section 4! I was amazed. It's comedy! Comedy is often offensive! I wrote back, explained that I thought that it was an error, and sent them links to all my show information so that they could review the nature of the material. A few hours later, not only was this video removed, but my entire account was deleted! DELETED! What? Are you serious? They deleted my account because this video was so horribly offensive. Now, I am very curious as to who runs the show at Atom Entertainment. Are they right wing Christian Fanatics? Are they right wing Orthodox Jews who don't take kindly to religious comedy? Muslims? Who are they?!!! Who are those people who censored my comedy show? I was really quite shocked. But I see it as great news. I got under someone's skin...rubbed them the wrong way...perhaps I scared them....Are they living in fear that featuring a show such as this might create some sort of backlash against their company. Or do they just think we suck? Who knows! But it's pretty funny.

THANK YOU ATOM ENTERTAINMENT FOR ENTERTAINING ME!

Demonic Robots

Yesterday, all I really wanted to say is this:  Politicians are the same no matter where you go, no matter where they are, who they are or how you view them:  DEMONIC ROBOTS PROGRAMMED TO CARRY OUT GLOBAL DESTRUCTION IN THE NAME OF SATAN....Caucuses, primaries, elections, and fundraisers are really nothing more than another illusion for you to immerse yourself into so that you can get further and further away from the truth of existence.  There's a reason the Democratic party has decided that their best chances of taking the oval office from Republicans are an inexperienced young African American Man and a former first lady who is widely detested, loathed, and despised.  Do you think the democrats really have a choice of who they select to represent them?  If they did, wouldn't they select some candidates that stood a better chance of taking the Republicans out? Don't get me wrong. Personally I think this country could use a female president. Females are far less physiologically programmed for destruction than men are...But then again, females are extremely hormonal...A hormonal female in a world crisis...hmmm...something to consider...And I would love to see an African American president...But here's a quick news flash! Presidents are NEVER really in charge! So who will be our next presidential puppet?

God Loves ME Best! - INTRO TRAILER

Here is the intro to our show!

Who Is God Anyway? (and other stuff)

Although the Web is the future of television, it's not quite the future yet and we will be looking to make the jump to cable television after the WGA strike resolves itself. In the meantime, we want to find as many fans as possible, and generate massive buzz about a very poignant concept. Religion and politics. Both are featured in the news every day.  And now, in the spirit of great comedy, we want to have a little fun with topics that people are willing to kill and die over.  Is it really that serious? I mean come on!@#$%...Who's right about God anyway? Who will be saved and who will burn in hell? Is there such a thing as hell? Any such thing as God? Was Jesus Christ really more than a fully enlightened and realized peaceful weed smoking hippie activist with some idealistic views on humanity, and love, who not only was the world's first surfer (the walking on water incident), but was also crucified for his so-called blasphemy?...Nothing more than a metaphorical explanation for the potential that we all have buried within our souls.  If Jesus were to come back down today, would any of the evangelicals believe him, when he told them he was the Christ?  Certainly they would crucify him all over again. Or maybe they'd just write him off as an insane lunatic, and he'd be homeless, begging for change in the streets. Or maybe...he'd open a bong store in Brooklyn!  So who does God really love best? Merkaba Productions of course!  And we'd like to share our satirical approach to religion and politics.  We also really enjoy making fun of reality television because while it may be lucrative to the "suits,".... It's so gay! (and I don't mean that in a homosexual way, I mean that in a Chicago way...you see, people in Chicago, say everything is gay...you'd have to visit to know what I'm talking about) Not to belittle spiritual and religious people....But to entertain those who understand the insanity of religious extremism and fundamentalism, and to hopefully make the fundamentalists laugh at themselves a little bit. Because they are quite ridiculous. And who do they think God is? A he?  Big Daddy living up in the sky?  Come on!  Is that a sane rational thought?  

God Loves ME Best! Youtube Progress Report

God Loves ME Best! on Youtube: Over the 2,000 mark for channel views, and over 9,000 video views in 90 short days. We’re building our distribution slowly but surely, and finding new fans on a daily basis. By the time the writer’s strike ends, we should have a strong enough fan base to make a move to cable television. That’s the game plan anyway. Regardless of where distribution is, web or cable, you can rest assured that there will be further development of the series and more production in the near future. Thank you and God speeds. - Merkaba

Letterman Rules! (and other stuff)

Hats off to David Letterman’s company World Wide Pants, who have reached an agreement with the Writer’s Guild of America that will put The Late Show back on the air with it’s staff writers intact, while the rest of Big Media continues it’s quest to prevent writers from claiming revenue on new media. For those who don’t know, new media translates to programming streamed and downloaded for viewing on digital technologies...i.e. the internet and mobile phones. Seems the studios don’t feel that writers are entitled to being compensated for shows that they created and wrote that are downloaded onto i-pods and mobile phones and watched on planes, trains, and toilets all over the world. I wonder if the studio and big media conglomerates think that God is on their side on this one? Maybe God Loves them best? I wonder if they’re holding secret ceremonies in caves somewhere in Delaware, worshipping giant owls, dressing in drag...branding themselves with secret markings on the underside of their balls...in unity, and consuming massive portions of human stew. And there’s no doubt President Bush would be there...with his evil smirk...nodding his approval of global economic domination with affectionate stupidity...That would be funny. But not really. Mostly scary. Anyhow, good job David Letterman. God loves YOU best!

Happy God Loves ME Best Year!

Happy New Year by way of the western solar calendar! This is the first blog entry by God Loves ME Best! This election year keeps religion at the forefront of political agendas, and it is becoming more and more evident each day that our comedy series God Loves ME Best! is needed to bring awareness and comedy relief to a topic that has people at WAR all over this planet. RELIGION!!!! The roots of all evil appear to be money and God, the two main ingredients of religion, and also the leading motivators for committing homicide and genocide across the globe. We are not atheists, nor agnostics. We are spiritual beings who have our own definition of God, but do not practice organized religion. We are not here to belittle the spiritual practices of anyone and we are not here to denounce religion.  God Loves ME Best! is not designed to insult the spiritual practices of anyone. But we would like to get to the origin of all this insanity. By insanity, we’re talking about the religious extremists and fundamentalists who are convinced that their individual religions are the only means to salvation. Why do they think their way is the only way? Why do they think it’s righteous to kill over who is right about God, when their prophets teachers, and messiahs preach that love is the only answer to salvation? Why are many religious people intolerant bigots and racists? Was Jesus into weapons? Was Muhammad into mass murder? The state of humanity is bleak when it comes to religion. We respect and admire people who are able to connect to their God and become enlightened through their spiritual practices. But the hypocrites continue to "entertain" us on a daily basis so we would like to shed some light out there somewhere and create some laughter in the process. Thank you for watching and stay tuned.
