Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Just in Time for Easter
Posted by Cienna Madrid on Fri, Apr 6, 2012 at 3:24 PM
Jesus returns with a special "Fuck You" for Steve Irwin's family:
When a dead cownose ray washed up on the beach, Scheldt took a photo of it, fascinated by the strange image on its back that looked vaguely familiar.
"I just kind of thought it looked like a bearded homeless man," Scheldt told IslandPacket.com "But when I posted pictures on Instagram, one of my friends was like, 'That's Jesus.' And I was like, 'Oh, my God. You're right.'"
My condolences to the Irwin family. Christians can be so cruel.

Hey, we don't control where HE chooses to appear alright? I mean gosh, it's so hard to keep track of that guy...and His mother? Don't get me started...

It isn't Jesus, it's Galileo. This is God's way of endorsing scientific observation. He clearly wants His children to buy telescopes.

That reminds me of my Croc Hunter joke. Have I told it to you?
OK, so. Steve Irwin walks into a barb.

@3, at least the man died the way he lived - with animals in his heart.
(I know, I'm going to hell.)

@2 is right. Jesus is alive and well and working at the Snowcone Truck in Fremont in the evenings.

@8: I'd you actually think that is a picture of Jesus, you deserve all the ridicule the Internet has to offer. Interpretting random shapes into patterns is not a miracle. A cloud shaped like a bunny is not a bunny.

No, but it may be Jesus, if Jesus was a bunny. Clearly the bunny-shaped cloud is indication that God is okay with the commercialization of Easter.

@8, A lot of Christians use Good Friday as an excuse to proselytize, demand "tolerance" for their aggressive religiosity, or terrorize whomever their perceive as enemies. Women's health clinics across the country are on high alert today for acts of violence or vandalism. Facebook walls around the world are smeared with Bible quotes accompanied by pompous demands to withhold debate or criticism.
If you want a special day to yourself, uninterrupted by different worldviews - to say nothing of actual dissent - get off the internet and go to fucking church. Your implicit demand for the world to quiet down and give you some space is infantile.
And take your "respect" straw man with you, by the way. Bad ideas are bad ideas 365.242 days a year.

For better viewing, somebody should nail that stingray to a frame of some sort - nothing elaborate, maybe just a simple upright with a single crosspiece.

Now, now, let's not rush to judgment.
Bury the stingray for three days.
If it's still dead on the third day, the image is actually of Tommy Chong, not Jesus.
Cool, man.
