    The Cult of Ned Flanders Grows

    Apparently some English people are devoting more attention to the Simpson's character Ned Flander.

    Linkaly-locally
    Cheltenham, England - The popularity of television's The Simpsons has inspired organizers of a Christian arts festival to dedicate an evening to one of the show's characters.

    Ned Flanders Ned Flanders

    Ned Flanders Night was added to this year's Greenbelt Festival after an article in the magazine Christianity Today suggested that the evangelical animated character was more associated with the faith than such real-life religious figures as Pope John Paul II or Mother Teresa.

    "We think [it] is an astonishing fact that young people are paying attention to The Simpsons in that way," said Simon Jenkins, the organizer of the Flanders tribute.

    Jenkins said Flanders sets a good example for Christians. "He's a very ardent believer...and at the same time he's very humble," he said. "Although he's got very strong beliefs, he's not thrusting them down anyone's throat and he's not being unpleasant about it.

    "He's a kind of faithful believer in Christ and he's humble about his fate and he's also very human."

    The Flanders celebration will include a performance by the tribute band Ned Zeppelin, and a satirical fashion show.

    The Greenbelt Festival runs Aug. 23-26 in Cheltenham, England.

    Todd Flanders: I'm jealous of girls, because they get to wear dresses.
    Ned Flanders : One problem at a time boy...

    Gotta love wikiquote.

    The Flanders character is as classic as the Comic Book Guy.
