I’ve always wanted to ask Catholics about that.
“That whole graven images thing. Was God just having the piss?”Report
I’ve passed that staue many, many times on the way to northern Ohio. There was a song someone did about it called, “Big Butter Jesus”.Report

Crap. Now I don’t know if I should be worshipping Zeus or Thor. Did anyone see a rainbow bridge after the lightning strike?Report
@Alex Knapp, given that Thor prefers “your god was nailed to some wood, I carry a hammer” jokes, I suspect that Zeus is more likely in this particular case.Report

@Rufus, I am always impressed with people who remember God and do it publicly. Sometimes this public expression is ‘tacky’ or some way that I wouldn’t personally engage but it is an expression of the love of God by a being created for that specific purpose.Report
@Bob Cheeks,
But remember, Jesus Christ himself warned against such public displays of piety…Report
