This time into lolcatz.

I am amused, horrified, impressed, thrilled and incredulous. All at once.

Got the link from [livejournal.com profile] minotaurs, for which I think him.

Probably turning in his grave, along with Wycliffe, Luther, and (for that matter) Ambrose and Jerome. But maybe getting a chuckle out of it, too.

Though I laugh to say so, it's really a very good translation.

That is absolutely amazing. I'm not sure whether it's the amount of time involved in translating the Bible, or the amount of time spent translating the Bible into lolcat.

It was funny at first. Then it just made my head hurt, trying to wade through it.

I'm not sure that actually reading it would be a good idea. You could do yourself some serious damage that way.

I find that hilarious. This takes more than just translation. It's an impressive adaptation, starting with 'Ceiling Cat'. And I marvel at the amount of free time people have on their hands.

Yes - I agree with all those comments. And I love the photo of the Ceiling Cat, looking down from the square hole in his ceiling. Conceptually it's all so clever. And yet - what a strange subject to apply one's brains and creativity to.
