Reason I Gave Up On Religion #135

From 'the Catholic Shopper' comes further proof that people have gone way off the deep end with their 'Jesus Inspirational Sports Statues' designed to be:

...the perfect gift for every young Catholic athlete. These statues portray Jesus actively participating with boys and girls in a variety of sports. A wonderful way to reinforce Jesus "as friend" in everyday activities.

All this statue tells me is that either these people really misunderstand Jesus' message and catholicism or that they are hell bent to discredit its true message (hint: Jesus didn't die on the cross to be your kid's personal baseball coach 'cuz he spent a lot of time with the poor and was a wee bit of a socialist).

It also tells me that Jesus wore the $3.50 flip flops from Old Navy. Man I ♥ those. Wear 'em all year 'round.
