Or maybe it was Obi-Wan?

1. Bwahahahahahaha!

2. I wonder what's the significance of the guy in the bowler hat among all the

Bible- timey onlookers in the background.

Maybe....

TIME TRAVEL!!

5. Darwin?

14. That's what I thought. nt

10. Discophiles through the ages?

3. His hand is upon Ben Carson

4. Okay, whoever he is...

I want to know who his barber is.

I've been cutting my husband's hair for a year and a half, and I need some lessons.

6. Loggins or Bowler Man?

[momta]

8. Actually, either.

I'm a shitty barber.

[StClone]

9. I'd be a fool to believe that!

Ha, my wife cuts my hair and told me she didn't know what she was doing...
I got compliments on my cut!


Talking about fools one of my all time favorite song:

16. I was blessed by the hippie Gods

my husband had such beautiful curls, it hid a world of barber shop sins.

7. "Death stars ain't gonna blow themselves up"

Always cracks me up that imaginary Jesus is portrayed as a white guy......

[ShazzieB]

12. It also cracks me up that his hair and beard are so both neatly trimmed and styled.

Who knew those ancient Palestinian barbers had such mad styling skills?

13. Is there a link for more of these? As a christian, I find them incredibly funny! ...

[2Gingersnaps]

15. Please tell me Kenny Loggins is alive and well,

Loggins and Messina rocked, so much easier for Messina than putting up with that asshat Richie Furray. Plus "A Love Song" is the sweetest ever, damn, is nothing sacred?

18. Still alive at 73, living in Santa Barbara.

17. Sigh

How does mocking an image of Jesus make any kind of statement about a segment of people who claim to know him?
I get that this image is one promoted by that group of people, so how about challenging the people instead of the one (as I believe) gave his life to wake them up? I get it that free expression is a part of this community, and, I also know there are limits to that exoression on this site. I’m part of this community too and this post is disheartening. Why address ignorance with ignorance?

[edhopper]

19. I find no ignorance in my post

Or any of the comments here.
If you don't think mocking this image, who somebody who claims to "know him" created is damn funny, I can't explain it to you.

20. Well....

Let’s just assume you know who you are talking about, and who you are talking to.
I get that you see some sort of “make God in your own white image, to the exclusion of everyone else”
which, for a segment of people, is a dynamic of their racism”, and yet that is a generalization. This image fits for me as do many other images.
I’ve spent the larger part of my life
trying to broaden people’s perspective.

Obviously the image you posted struck a chord with you. So what image works for you? How do you know him? Without knowing these things, it just looks divisive.
You may or may not know that Jesus’ entire ministry revolved around helping people to know God.
He was no stranger to being mocked. In fact, He was rejected, mocked and murdered for the image he projected. The problem I have with your post is that nothing has changed since his death.

21. I am not mocking Jesus

though I have no problem with mocking religion.

I am mocking the use of a Movie Star type image for a man who lived in the Middle East 2000 years ago.

Yes it makes Jesus more palatable to a lot of racist Christians who can't bare that Yeshua probably looked like this.

22. Now we're talkin'

I am so glad you took the time to “explain
it to me.”
I was about to give up on people altogether
Blessings back to you

23. Thank you for understanding

Go in peace,
