Atheists are too easily entertained to be taken serious.

I bet ole dawkins will bust out laughing with you.

I wonder how quick this event will be included in dawkins playbook of things to <<snort>> at, at gatherings of close between the eyes. Atheist are fast becoming known as “YouTube” scientists.

You pipple are real comedians.<<snicker>>
What I find funny about the story is the fact that the couple spent $250,000 to build the statue, yet he said he wanted to "help people". I'm sure $250,000 could have done a lot of things to help people more than this statue did.

It is like all these churches in the area who build this mega compounds. What is the point?
JUST A THOUGHT!

Are they absolutely sure the fire was caused by lightening -- and not set by atheists?

Many years ago, I had a close relative who was shot in the stomach -- and the police in Tuscumbia, because they could not prove otherwise, declared it a suicide. No one commits suicide by shooting himself in the stomach, an extremely painful death. Yet, this is how the police listed it.

SO, just wondering if something similar happens in other places?

Just a thought. Not that I really think atheists or secularist would do such a thing.

Y'all come back now, ya heah?

Bigot much?

NB

That's funny coming from you Deep. Big Grin
I'm not anymore a bigot than you are about Christians.
Try again, call me another name, that one didnt work. Wink
Personally, I don't find it funny- I find it so sad.
You know, I've travelled to many 3rd world countries- they do not have a roof over their heads, but they have a big beautiful Church, or shrine to the Blessed Sacrament
In fact, one particular trip, to Cuba- I was struck by the poverty and deplorable living conditions. But in the center of the city,was a massive Crucifix, handcarved of fine marble.
Just goes to show you, that sometimes people build incredible testaments to their faith, if they have nothing else. It is something to "cling" to in times of desparation, and I see nothing wrong with it. I am saddened by it's demise.
Another way to look at it, VPLEE, tho cynical, is how can these people blow money on such a huge building/statue/whatever when people are living in squalor and wondering when, and if, they will be able to eat next.

Personally, i'd rather spend the money to house/clothe/feed/people than to erect a huge edifice to show people how holy and pious i was.

but that's just me
NO.. with that said i have to go to my original reaction..

OOONOOOOOO.. Big Butter Jesus has Melted!!!! NOOOOO

Heywood Banks will be crushed..!!

Big Butter Jesus by Heywood Banks.
In southern Ohio, just north of Cincinnati
I beheld a vision, next to the expressway.
Was a 60 foot jesus, with his hands in the air
looks like he’s carved out of butter,
just like at the state fair.

Big butter Jesus
Sweet cream Jesus
Oh country fresh Jesus
Unsalted Jesus
Oh Promise Jesus
Imperial Jesus
Can’t believe it’s not Jesus
Oleo Lord.

Well you see him from the chest up
like he’s about to do a back flip,
like he scored a touchdown
or maybe melting or about to drown.
Well I’ve been to the state fair
seen a cow made out of corn cobs
Garth Brooks made of string cheese
and the virgin out of olives.

Big butter Jesus
Sweet cream Jesus
Oh country fresh Jesus
Unsalted Jesus
Oh Promise Jesus
Imperial Jesus
Can’t believe it’s not Jesus
Oleo Lord.

Shipped in pieces on a flatbed
staring backwards was his big head
Driver stuck in traffic backups
desperately avoiding eye contact
Well don’t make no graven images.
That’s one of the 10 commandments
I hope the grading curve is kindly
You get to heaven with a 90

Big butter Jesus
Sweet cream Jesus
Oh country fresh Jesus
Unsalted Jesus
Oh Promise Jesus
Imperial Jesus
Can’t believe it’s not Jesus
Oleo Lord.

Can’t believe it’s not Jesus,
Oh spread the word.

Yes. I agree. The amounts of precious metals and elaborate structures, while people are starving is difficult to understand. I think for those people, it is maybe just a matter of priority. They "give it all to God" in hopes that God will take care of them.
Huh. who knows. the whole thing is loco.

But when our President, during his campaign, stated--correctly--that in certain chronically-depressed American communities, out-of-work Americans cling strongly to their faith, he was criticized for that. Go figure.

heh.. i do understand you point to, tho..
'we may not have much, but we have God..'

i get that too.. i guess i'm just a little to practical and simple on the issue.
Heathens. Infidels.

This is God's reminder that the 8th Commandment is still valid!

The Solid Rock Church of Monroe, Ohio is doomed to hell. Every praying one of them. Not to mention every seven year old child who ever drew a picture of Baby Jesus.

And if you don't laugh at the irony of this situation, you'll burn in hell with them.

Laugh or burn. It's your choice.

One night Big Butter
Got hit by lightning
And it buried to its frame wire
In a giant grease fire
Some blamed it satan
And boy that would be frightning
But I think its jesus' Father
That's in charge of the lightning.

Oh fireball Jesus
Infamable Jesus
Oh charbrolied Jesus
WOOpah Jesus
Oh extra crispy Jesus
Banana's foster Jesus
I'm put out it's not Jesus
Char-coaly-o Lord

Yes I'm put out it's not Jesus,
Charcoaly some more
