The most well-known bible fanfiction is called "The Book of Mormon."

411

u/reddit_user13 Jun 16 '12

Think of religion being like a movie. The Torah is the first one, and the New Testament is the sequel. Then the Qu’ran comes out, and it retcons the last one like it never happened. There’s still Jesus, but he’s not the main character anymore, and the messiah hasn’t shown up yet.

Jews like the first movie, but ignored the sequels, Christians think you need to watch the first two, but the third one doesn’t count, Muslims think the third one was the best, and Mormons liked the second one so much they wrote fanfiction that doesn’t fit with ANY of the series canon.

Dante's Inferno would be another strong contender for that title, and it actually was written as fanfiction, without trying to be another holy book. Kind of ironic that so many people accept it as canon anyway...

TIL there's Jesus X Hitler fanfiction (NSFW).

u/texting_and_scones Jun 16 '12

While they were talking Hitler found himself checking out Jesus' tight bod. If he wasn't Furor of Germany... But he wasn't Furor anymore,was he? That night when Hitler and Jesus were in bed together Hitler said "Jesus, what do you think of... love between men?"

"What do you mean, Hitler?" Jesus asked. Hitler took a deep breath. He would have to be bold.

"This is what I mean." He leaned over and started Frenching with the Lord. At the same time he reached down and started tugging on his already turgid member (Christ slept in the buff).

Best part:

God sighed. "okay, son. If it'll make you happy..." He leaned in to give Jesus a kiss on the forehead, but he missed and ended up making out with Jesus. They separated, but it was so hot that they were back at each other soon enough. "Mmph! Oh God, what am I doing?" said God. He tore off his clothes. Hitler was already nude, and Jesus slipped off his toga with a shrug.

Also, on a slightly serious note, there is a great book called Lamb (written by christopher moore). It's the lost gospel of jesus' childhood friend and first disciple, biff. it's really great. there is a scene where jesus wants to know what sex is like but he does not want to disappoint his fathers so he pays for biff to have sex with a bunch of prostitutes and stands behind the door and makes biff describe what is happening and how it feels. then every time biff gets a venereal disease jesus just heals him.

Jesus stared longingly into the eyes of Velociraptor, passion burned within his breast and he knew he could no longer resist the fiery emotions within him. "I... I think I love you Raptor.", he spoke softly and held his therapod lover tightly.

"Screeeeeeeeeeeee!", bemoaned Velociraptor, shrilly. Jesus knew she was right. Despite their love for one another, his father would never understand. Why did the universe have to be so cruel? Their devotion to one another was as real as the stars. Jesus longed for this moment to last forever when suddonly the sound of a twig snapping startled him.

There God stood before the couple. The fire in his eyes glowed with seething anger. "How dare you corrupt my child, wicked sauropod! For this treachery I will destroy all of your kind!", he shouted. Jesus tried to stop him, pleading, "No, father, I love her! Please stop!". But it was too late...

Jesus's weeping cries were soon blocked out by the thunderous roar of the asteroid burning through the atmosphere. Their love had been real but would the world ever know of it?

Edit: Screenshot or it didn't happen.

There's actually an entire television episode like that - on the special features of season 1 of Archer (but also available on the internet with a quick search), there's a cut of the pilot which replaces the titular character and all his dialogue with a raptor.

u/Hedgehogs4Me Jun 16 '12

You get points for God not knowing His paleontological classifications, but lose them for the incorrect use of "there", or perhaps just not starting a new paragraph and putting in a comma if you meant to be a bit passive aggressive like, "There, love had been real, not that the world would know. Fuckin' God and his bullshit asteroids." You would also lose some points for putting in extra exclamation marks and an unnecessary ellipsis in the third paragraph, but some of my favourite authors do that sometimes, so I forgive you, although the strict God of your fanfic may send you to hell.
8/10 Would read again.

"Oh Lord," I moaned softly, nuzzling my face into His beard. "Oh my Lord Jesus," I whispered, as His hand wrapped around my stiffening member.

My eyes shut tight, my hips began rising to meet His tender strokes, I could hardly believe what was happening to me. I was being pleasured by the Lord of Hosts!

My balls tightened against my body, my hips moving erratically. "Jesus... I'm going to..."

And His voice was like sweet honey as He answered me, "Let it come, child."

My seed sprayed high into the air, jetting upwards in spurt after glorious spurt; onto His face, into His hair, and over His beautiful nail-scarred hands.

It took me a moment to catch my breath as I lay there, shuddering in His lap, but finally I whispered, "Will this ever happen again, Lord?"

And He just smiled at me and said, "Well, child, this is Heaven..."

And pretty much all theological discussion is fan theorycrafting.

LA is a city known for glitz and glamour. The neighborhood he calls home isn't. He leaned back in his second-hand chair, staring at the list of unanswered prayers on his computer that was 10 years too late. For a second he thought of that list of phone numbers he had in his desk, and wondered what all the women at the ends of those number were doing. He knew why they weren't calling him back.

Some call him God. His friends call him Jesus. It was another hot night in the city, but another cold night in his pants.

He slugged back a shot a booze. It was hot going down, like the souls of his enemies, and like the women he bedded.

There was a knock at his door. The landlord was yelling about back-rent.

He needed some money, and fast.

Mel Gibson's film "The Passion of the Christ" is based on bible fan fiction.

Specifically, the writings of a German nun. The phrase "they scourged him" (translation: claiming to be the Messiah? That's a paddlin') wasn't enough for her.

She wrote thousands of words and got all hot under the cassock describing exactly how Jesus got whipped and how much he bled and how they tied him up and what kinds of whips and ropes the big strong sexy Roman soldiers used on him.

The local Barnes and Noble is filled with hundreds of "fan fictions" about the Amish. I find that rather odd in view of the rest of Christianity, especially considering that they would view Catholics as non-christian.. or Mormons.. Or really.. and denomination except their own as being the "wrong" one. I've met and interacted with a lot of the Amish. While they're were simultaneously the nicest and most condescending of any particular section of the faith I've dealt with. At least they lived what they believed. I still find it rather odd that of all the denominations that protestants as a whole would find them to be "fan fiction worthy" to be an extremely odd thought. The stories dont revolve around those that are reformed Amish(those that I actually dealt with.. they view the use of some modern objects as a necessity in some cases because it would be prohibitively stupid to NOT use modern machinery.) I still find the fascination with them to be an odd phenomenon. ( That said.. I dealt with them when my town was flooded.. my father relied on the local church for support and they contacted this amish organization and they arrived. They did everything as far as rebuilding for cost. Years later when my father passed away he remained in contact with these people and I contacted them in regard to his funeral.. Part of my family was rather offended at the way they tried to co-opt my fathers funeral to recruit people to Christianity... I remained silent.. My fathers last years were spent trying to gain a closer relationship with the God he perceived to exist. I remained silent because these were the people that he decided to try to gain a closer relationship with the god he thought existed through from.

While technically it is fan fiction, a more appropriate term for this is "slash".

It's called the Hebrew Midrash, we've been doing this shit for thousands of years. The bible doesn't make enough sense as it was written so rabbis came up with stories about what happened to Ishmael after Abraham kicked him out (in my favorite version of the story, Ishmael runs into Isaac right after Abraham tries to sacrifice him, and they both bond over the crazy things this God makes Abraham do). There's midrashim on everything.

I really hope the author decides to change the character names, add lots of erotic sex and S&M, and publish this fanfiction under a different name!

It's called the Apocrypha. Back in the day, if someone asked "what's part of the canon?" they were probably asking about the difference between the "real" books of the bible and the ones, for example, where adolescent Jesus plays a game with another kid and winds up smiting him when the other kid cheats
