Protip: if you ever gain any official position in Argentina, [never, ever eat part of a life-sized Jesus cake](http://www.patheos.com/blogs/friendlyatheist/2018/06/03/argentinian-culture-minister-criticized-for-taking-a-bite-of-jesus-cake/).

You might have to widen the parameters and just say that you should never, ever do _anything_ to a life-sized Jesus cake.

Cake, what a Jesus!

I mean, Jesus, what a cake!

🙂

ETA: I guess that to a non-religious diabetic, taking the cake’s name in vain is much more offensive than taking the Lord’s name in vain. 😃

Isn’t this just a more literal form of the host consumed during Holy Communion?

Oh for heaven’s sake. It was only a cartoon Jesus! I have to say whoever baked it got Medieval with the food coloring on the inside though.

I don’t even want to mention how my Dolly Parton cake went. All I got was a piece of the foot.

How do you know? have you asked them if they accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior?

No, there’s no point in asking them, because they’re not mentally competent. They’re nuts. (And not just a little bit - they’re really fucking nuts.)

Doubt it, since that cake is meant to depict a male and Devi is a goddess.
