  • LeechesOfKarma, on 07/14/2009, -1/+13David Yow has never looked so light on his feet.
  • bpoteat, on 07/14/2009, -0/+7But God has always existed and Jesus is the son of God but actually he also is God so while he was only born a few years ago he actually has always existed. Um, ok, so we're clear then?
  • inactive, on 07/13/2009, -1/+8I've seen this little guy firsthand....super cool!
  • iPissExcellence, on 07/14/2009, -1/+7The Jesus Lizard? Sounds like a conspiracy theory.

  • BasalCellBossk, on 07/14/2009, -1/+5It does have an advantage over other lizards. It can run from predators over water. That's a pretty big advantage.
  • hatepaste, on 07/14/2009, -1/+4Bah, I was hoping this was about the band

  • skipvt, on 07/14/2009, -0/+1I liked the links better than the article.
  • chrisdlee, on 07/14/2009, -3/+4I think everybody is confused. When you name something after something else, you name it after the thing that existed first.

    The Lizard was on earth before Jesus. Instead of calling this "The Jesus Lizard" we should call Jesus "The Lizard Christ".

  • rickstariot, on 07/14/2009, -0/+1Yeah I saw them thrice in the UK a month or so back. They still got it.

  • KittySpark1es, on 07/14/2009, -4/+2Real Men Love Jesus Lizard.
  • UnFriendlyFire, on 07/14/2009, -6/+4Should call it the Darwin lizard, since it obviously is a product of millions of years of random genetic mutations that some how came together to produce an animal that had an advantage over the other lizards. /s
