Geesh! Some people in South Carolina think they have a picture of Jesus on a Walmart receipt. And this actually made the headlines...........! When I read stuff like this, I become even more grateful that my Dad taught me that religion is really the opiate of the masses more than it is anything else. Seriously, read this.
How come everyone thinks they know what Jesus looked like, anyway, if he really existed? I see a lot of pictures, supposedly of Jesus, in midwestern Methodist churches featuring a man with light brown hair, blue eyes, and very Caucasion features. If Jesus really existed, he probably never saw a pair of blue eyes, (possibly green, but not blue) and probably had an olive to very dark complexion and black hair. It's quite likely that he resembled Osama Bin Laden more than the imaginary entity of the the "Jesus" pictures. But Christians in South Carolina, and probably everywhere in the United States, likely do not agree with me. Here's a quote from the article: "The couple said the image seemed to answer a question they had just been asked at church.
"We had a message on knowing God, abiding in him," Sutherland said. "(The preacher asked) 'If you know God, would you recognize him if you saw him?'"
What a question! If the real Jesus reappeared, he probably wouldn't be able to board a plane or open a bank account because some good Christian would think he's a terrorist, and his name was really "Yeshua", not Jesus. His surname would be Middle Eastern, and sound very scary to the Republican Party. He'd oppose war, and oppose all of the greedy goals so many politicians have right now.......would any American Christians recognize him, and once they did, would they want thim around? I kinda don't think so.
Here's a popular picture of what lots of people in Kansas, and the surrounding states think Jesus looked like. They also think god is a white old man with a flowing white beard, too. And they probably think that white old man is gonna zap yours truly for publishing this! Hahahahahahaha! Believe me when I tell you this isn't what any Middle Eastern man looked like at the time Jesus allegedly existed!
Oh...........I almost forgot...........here's a question for Christians, if any care to answer me; isn't there a commandment regarding "graven images"? Would that include walmart receipts?
