I wonder if they're going to make a baseball bat out of it....

This just shows that God doesn't like evangelical churches

 

[galactiboy]

Man, if that was in my community I'd have thanked God for that one

BTW, that statue was fugly looking...

 

[The Ween]

That wasn't too far from me and it's not that bad looking when you're seeing it from across the water there. It can look quite impressive when the sun is shining through the clouds and hitting it. I'm not surprised though that it went up like that being made of styrofoam and the gases it gives off.

 

[Maglor]

Awesome!


Did you shop that?

 

[galactiboy]

Wonder how they got permits to make a giant tinderbox like that? Seems like it would be a fire hazard waiting to happen.

 

[fosing]

i think they got the message.

Since it's away from the main building and near water, maybe they gave it a pass. Styrofoam isn't highly flammable, but it gives off gases that are, so only a lightening bolt would get it going. Such was their luck.

All the Jews will laugh and sing,
When Jesus gets hit by lightning.

(i wrote a short poem! )

 

[The Ween]

There were people who made comments about how they were glad it was gone and that on the news. I don't know, I don't care, but I feel bad for the people who thought highly of it.

Jesus Christ!

I have seen it in person a few times each year when visiting Wihelm's(?) Collectibles at Traders World. It is a bit of a haul for us but I always thought the thing was creepy.

Is it wrong that I find this extremely funny?Sort of a "poetic justice" thing...PS

 

[devilof76]

Is the New Testament really that vague on idolatry?

Its not far from me either. Kind of weird if you ask me. Its always been there, as long as I can remember. I was not a fan of it but always thought it was pretty damn cool!

That place is really cool. Is that the one that has the check out in the middle of the booth? Also if you like that place, there is a cool Sta Wars collectibles at the other Flea market near Traders World. I can't remember the name but it has a Pirate theme.

the church is already rebuilding it...that church craps money. super high class

 

[Kuzeh]

Maybe they'll choose better materials this time around?...

Nicely done!


And no. Both the "Old" and "New" are pretty clear.
