NEW YORK -

Experience the Passion of Christ — in 140-character bursts.

In a marriage of Christian tradition and digital technology, Wall Street's Trinity Church is using the micro-blogging service Twitter to perform the story of Jesus Christ.

The main characters will tweet the Passion play for three hours beginning at noon on Good Friday. The feed also can be delivered to mobile devices or e-mail addresses.

The lower Manhattan Episcopal parish also is offering a Web version of the Stations of the Cross.

The church was founded by a small group of Anglicans in 1697.

I'm not sure that I'd call an alternate way to spread the word of god "useless crap".

I'm not a big twitter fan right now, but it certainly seems to have some uses. A friend of mine runs a fair bit of a successful business by way of tweets.

Kinda depends on your definition of "useless crap". Some people find it useful; if you don't, then don't use it.

Twitter is a system whereby egomaniacs deliver news of their every movement to morons who aren't bright enough to turn on their TV and watch soaps.

The life of Jesus would be short, less than 140 bits. He lived, he died, the end. He was just a man.

if that's how you choose to use it, i find it better to follow media and news outlets on twitter than it is to use an rss feed, i can ignore twitter updates, rss feed in my mailbox need to be deleted

Hi Dj,

I choose not to use it at all. My attention span is rather longer than twittering requires.
