Jul 9 2008Matthew McConaughey reads The Bible?
Matthew McConaughey astounds me yet again by typing people words and claiming to have knowledge of The Bible. Here's his latest blog entry explaining how he chose Levi Alves McConaughey for his newborn son's name. I'm going to assume somebody ate a handful of mescaline then watched 6-8 hours of TBN:
"Levi" was another name for the apostle "Matthew" in the bible.... they were, in fact, two names for the same person... our son was born at 6:22 pm, and this particular "time" represents my favorite verse in the book of Matthew in the bible: "if thy eye be single, thy whole body will be full of light."
So, is Matthew "McConaughey" trying to tell us his kid "only" has one eye? Because I didn't "understand" a fucking thing that guy just said. I do know that Levi's going to be the only preschooler to talk non-stop on the spiritual lessons of Cookie Monster: "Man, I'm telling you, man. That sumbitch knows shit. It's like he's in my noggin', man, diggin' around. Telling me, yeah, I love cookies, but do I even know why there's a C in 'cookie,' man? KER-PSHH! Fries your freakin' Play-Doh, doesn't it?" Levi will later drop out of kindergarten after he realizes he's Jesus and just really likes nachos.

I saw McConaughey when he read "if thy eye be single". He stood really still for so long that the cherry on the blunt died out.

Ok, get real - we all know he can't read.

Hopefully the kid doesn't smell like Matthew....
The moron one, not the biblical one....

My favorite bible line comes from the 3rd verse of the book of Matthew.
"And yay even though thou wife is pregnant, thou shalt go to Nicaragua and drink thine ass off and cavort with strange women."
Matthew, MMMMMM...DRUGS ARE BAD? MMMMKAY?

Maybe he unconsciously named his son Levi after Leviticus, hoping that his son would avoid his own tendency to have random drunken sexual encounters with men: "Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; it is an abomination."

I guess he skipped the part where it said no sex before marriage.

I would pay good money to hear Tom Cruise, Matthew McConaughey, Samuel Jackson (moderator?), Amy Winehouse, Mr Miyagi and Brainy Smurf have a round table discussion on well, just about anything....maybe Pink Floyd's The Wall. Get them all reeeeally stoned and see what epiphany pops outta they heads.

"Now git in the barrel...we'll do it 'urricaine style...here comes ol' 'One Eye'!"
I don't think old Matthew picked up his son's name from a Bible passage - I think he was stoned and listenin' to Firesign Theatre albums. We'll know for sure if he names his next kid, "Nick Danger".
If so, I have new-found respect for him...and that's the truth....well, as far as you know.

There are indeed some POINTS in it.

Who &*$(*'ing cares? How soon before the baby is rigged up with the same hair system as daddy's?
22. Bigo - July 9, 2008 3:42 PM
Did he really read the Bible or did he just took off his pants and saw the name Levi's and decided to name his son like that.

Amongst his folk, it's pronounced "the bobble"

I believe McConaughey lives to be true to himself which I believe is very admirable, however, I think the image he suggests of himself to the public at-large is such a load of horseshit. (I don't really blame him, it's just that he gives us all so little credit. Lies. Of course, as King of the World, it is very important what I believe.)

I like how all the posts about women in bathing suits gets a headline like "so-and-so wears a bikini on the beach" but for a guy it has to spark a discussion about his intellect or lack thereof.
Can't we just say "Matthew McConaughey is shirtless again, and all is right with the world"? Oh yeah, and he just became a father.

"I guess he skipped the part where it said no sex before marriage."
Nowhere in the Bible does it say anything about not having sex before marriage.

She is UGLY. He could have done way better than her. Oh Yeah, that's why he doesn't talk about marrying her!

He's no towering intellect, that guy! he should stick to just taking his shirt off. It's what he does best.

#29 The only thing many people care this very much is that you fucking die, immediately if not sooner.
