Some People Really Need to Lighten Up

Tags:, , , , .

Admittedly, I’m not Christian (I know, horrors!), but honestly!
Why can’t you love Jesus AND have a sense of humor about him?

I’m sure Jesus had a sense of humor and could laugh at himself,
from time to time at least…

Check out this blasphemy: Chocolate Jesus for Christmas! The guy who makes them is trying to bring a religious tone back to the holiday, even!
He calls them “My Sweet Lord.” The church is not amused.

hey, at least he's white, right?

Hmmm, reminds me of Cosimo Cavallaro’s chocolate Jesus (with anatomical accuracy!). The church wasn’t so pleased about that either.

In other blasphemous news, a burning cross for your porch, just in time for the holidays! Ok, so maybe it’s not really on fire, it just looks like it is.
A good idea (?) gone terribly wrong.

The Perfect Christmas Symbol?

The blog post about this one (from Dispatches from the Culture Wars) is pretty funny.

I know, a burning cross isn’t considered blasphemy, just bigotry, but why isn’t it? We’re not allowed to desecrate the flag by burning it, so why is ok to burn crosses? Something to ponder.

Happy Holidays, y’all.

i’d just like to say that i am christian and i think that a chocolate jesus is a great idea!
since chocolate is the ultimate food, isn’t being sculpted in chocolate the ultimate compliment? besides, wouldn’t eating that much chocolate qualify as a religious experience?

You know, I have to agree. Eating that much chocolate would certainly be a religious experience.
Besides, when you take communion, you’re supposed to be eating the body of Christ anyway, so why not sweeten the deal (pardon the pun) and take chocolate communion? I bet the Catholic church would see a surge in popularity…
