Not really related… but I have a Jesus action figure. I put it on my bookshelf and I sometimes move him into different odd positions. ---

Does he have large nails through his hands and feet? Because I really don’t like eating nails. And loin cloths stick in my teeth, so I’d like to avoid them as well. ---

Could I just go for the chocolate Mary? And a little St. Andrew’s cross made out of Butterfingers bars? Saint Peter, did you get all of that, or should I write more slowly? ---

Someone gave my aunt an entire nativity scene made from white chocolate, she proudly displayed in on the coffee table…probably a bad idea if you have a dog at about that level…he devoured the entire thing, which made him gravely ill…but he pulled through…must have been eating all of those holy figures, eh? I was planning on consuming the baby Jesus, but the damn dog beat me to it… Margo ---

\Sweet Chocolate Jesus!\ Chocolate Jesuses (Jesii?) could do wonders for the Catholic Church’s popularity. “This is my body. Take, eat…” indeed! I wouldn’t hesitate to eat a chocolate Jesus…but then I’m not remotely Christian.
