Amazingly Wow

Yes, well, if you haven't heard it by now, Touchdown Jesus, aka Big Butter Jesus, aka www.jeeeb.us aka Quicksand Jesus was struck by lightning Tuesday night and burnt to the ground. There's nothing left but a scaffolding frame, the entire structure being a creation of lightweight and highly flammable styrofoam and plastic.

I tend to agree. The church should be about a river of charity and good works, not vulgar kindling.
Cathedrals get a by, 'cause they're awesome.

It seems kind of poetic, really. I never got to see Big Butter Jesus in person, but everyone I know from Ohio would talk about how crazy it was. You'd think that the church members would take it as some kind of sign that GOD DOES NOT APPROVE.

I agree that they should take the money and spend it on something more worthwhile. I'm certainly not a Christian, but it seems to me Jesus would think the money better spent at a food bank or shelter or something than a big, giant tacky statue of himself.
