Compared to all the other recent “sightings” this one actually does look a bit like Jesus.
It looks like mommy’s been getting a little too familiar with the Jesus plays baseball statuette.
Then you wouldn’t to hear what I saw floating in the toilet not ten minutes ago!
Just wondering … why is this in the Pit?
(Now I see what people mean when they say the Pit is turning into MPSIMS: The PG-rated Sequel. It’s like a Jay Leno monologue. What’s next, Wacky Headlines?)
choie: I’d be glad to add the curse words, but, you’re right, it’s still not really Pit-worthy.
Why is this news? Why do we have these ignorant assholes who can’t fucking tell a baby from their Lord Messiah? Don’t they think a baby is enough blessing all by itself, according to their creed? That woman has got to be the most decidedly arrogant egotistical piece of work ever. “Jesus is in my belly.” Shut the fuck up!
Ok, rant over. But my question still stands: Why is this news?
There must be something wrong with my eyes, because I can never see the image of Jesus or Mary or Ringo or whatever other people think they see.
The thing that they’ve circled looks more like a badger than anything else to me.
Unless Jesus was a badger, but for some reason I think of him as more of a Stout guy myself.
Too funny. That site must be a joke. If anyone, including Jesus, tried to teach my kid to bat by getting THAT close to him, I’d make them suffer like Jesus.
They (the family) are already selling T-shirts!
Yeah, they say “I gave birth to the Messiah and all I got was this lousy T-Shirt!”
I think it looks like my lucky troll . Rub Jesus’s head and win at bingo!
They are? Where can I buy one?
And Elvis is in Joan Rivers, but he’s trying to get out, man!

Speaking of Leno, didn’t he spend some time once occasionally showing some of those “Jesus plays” statuettes? I have this feeling it was Leno, though I suppose it could’ve been Conan. It was several years ago, I believe.
Blame Diogenes the Cynic. His 'Salt Stain Mary Update" was in the Pit, so I followed suit.

Seriously, though, it looks more like Ron Perlman in The Quest for Fire to me. So of course, you do realize what deity that makes it, right?
OG SMASH PUNY ULTRASOUND!
:eek:
And yeah, either Leno or Letterman did a segment on those Jesus Plays statues. They even included a couple that “weren’t as popular”—like Jesus getting picked last for softball, or Babe Ruth (?) walking on water, etc.
I saw it right away, but it looked more like the sillouette of a woman holding a baby or something. Weird.
(Fucking site tried to send me a trojan, dammit.)
It was Conan.
Hwy, y’all are missing the true miracle here. Go back and read the article again.
She gave birth after only 10 minutes of labor! :eek:
Now THAT’S what I call a Blessing!
There’s a tree in Quincy, Illinois that has what looks like the popular image of Jesus in it, standing, flowing robe, holding a lamb in folded arms; it was formed by knots. It has to be one of the top three most famous ‘found’ Jesus images ever, and also is one of the only ones to be a.)publicly accessible sunup to sundown and b.) long-lasting (more than a tortilla or a watery illusion :rolleyes: ).
I could never find a picture of the Jesus images found in

Anybody know of them?
Hmmmmm… I ‘d better pay close attention when I muck out the horses’ stalls tomorrow morning…
