I thought Jesus WAS the main course?

Jesus was a sucker for deep-fried mozzarella sticks. What, you think at the Last Supper he was worried about eating healthy?

Jesus and his 12 boyfriends drank wine, ate bread, meats and olives and then got it on. It was like a cocktail party without hope and cheer.

Life expectancy also increased about 30 years, infant mortality probably decreased 70%, etc. So what? Eating more has done good and bad.

The original version had Jesus as Asian, and they were sharing a bowl of rice and fish.

Oh, wait, you mean the "Christian" version.

Never mind.

What about the wine? Are they drinking more wine now? Because I'm thinking it takes a little more booze to turn off our bullshit detectors today than it did 2000 years ago.

I chalk it up to a thousand years of shortening attention spans. At first "Look! Jesus and his disciples!" was enough, now it's "Jesus and them! Ooh, what IS that they're eating? I wonder do they find it tasty? Who's a vegan, I wonder?"

There's a very simple explanation for this phenomenon.

Western, and particularly American Christians, have gotten so fat in the last 1,000 years that a regular-sized Jeebuz wouldn't be able to curb their appetite, transubstantiation-wise. So, they've had to upsize the Last Supper in order to allow Jeebuz to do some serious pre-crucifixion carb-loading, in essence bulking him up in order to ensure sufficient "blood and body of" to meet the needs of the Appleby's all-you-can-eat after Sunday service crowd.

Also, the AD 1000 depictions did not feature French fries.

Please wait...
