If not then you are missing out.
I know Christians sometimes like to pick up bricks, but this one seems to be doing it for a kindler, gentler form of proselytizing.
LEGO proselytizing.
These are fun.

Check this out.
And The Lord said Go Forth and Stack.
I was greatly amused right now when I just read this review of the site, in which somebody was scandalized by the "explicit Lego sex" and I like the image of some of the Lego people "on top of each other in naked yellow."
Donovan? "They call me naked yellow...." Quite right.
And the reviewer believes she saw a Lego sheepfucker.
The poor dear.
Here, check this review.
Joe Orton couldn't have done any better himself when he was writing one of his fake letters of suburban housewifely outrage.
Legos and Bible Verses Does Not Mean Family-friendly!
As a parent of three children under the age of five, I dread the day when they will discover the wonders of the Internet. I often wonder how I am going to keep my children from explicit material. I can only guess that most parents use some sort of filter or something, but we all know that there are ways around these filters.
Of course, I imagine that any parent could probably trust Disney.com or other various family-friendly sites. Many of the businesses that operate these websites even encourage kids to ask their parents permission to log on. However, I would imagine that busy parents do not have the time to peruse every site their children view, and so they would probably blindly accept any site that looked kid-friendly.
In a search for Lego-related material, I found a site called The Brick Testament that looked ideal for children. The Brick Testament, for those who do not know, is a site devoted to dioramas of Bible Stories made entirely with Lego bricks. That's right, you can actually see stories from Genesis, Exodus, and even the life of Christ all done with Lego figurines and, in some cases, very nice Lego buildings as well. I was actually quite surprised at how much biblical material is there, such as Noah's Ark, the ten plagues, even the crucifixion.
I'm certain that what most parents, especially Christian parents, would probably not shy their children away from a site devoted to Legos and Bible. However, it should be known that the site is by no means kid-friendly.
For example, there are several scenes on the Brick Testament which have explicit Lego sex. You don't see any anatomy, but you do see some of the figures in Lego on top of each other in naked yellow. There is also one scene in the flood story where it shows a Lego person having what looks to be unnatural relations with a sheep. In addition to this sexual content, there is also bloody Lego violence in the form of bright red bricks.
I think we all know that the Bible is full of material that is not G-rated, but often times it feels like The Brick Testament goes out of its way to show things that are just plain indecent.
The diorama presented here is of course Job in his misery, scraping himself with a potsherd.
