Jesus sure shows up in the damnest places

[CatWoman]

It's an Easter miracle! A youth minister in Houston thinks he might have found the image of Jesus Christ in a Cheeto. Steve Cragg of Memorial Drive United Methodist Church said he was eating a bag of Cheetos when he came across what he originally thought looked like a dog. After turning it sideways, Steve saw the image of Jesus Christ. His students have named it Cheesus and Steve keeps it in a special box.

He said, "Please know that I am not making light of Easter or religion. I do not think that God makes Cheetos that look like Jesus or creates images of Himself on screen doors. I do know that God reveals Himself to us in a zillion different ways. Seeing the image of Christ in a Cheeto means that I was able to imagine it. God’s creation is full of signs and things that can and do remind us of Him."

It's a little too early for April Fool's jokes. I stared at Cheesus for a good 5 minutes and all I see is a Cheeto that I would love to eat. I sort of see George Washington with a rifle, but I do not see Jesus. I just don't have the gift in me.

We have finally found something Brit Brit can devote her entire life to. She will give up everything, move to Texas and spend her days worshiping at the altar of Cheesus.

Click here to see the video of Steve carefully showing off his Cheesus. Whatever gets you through the day. I'm betting that Steve just won't be able to resist Cheesus' cheesiness for long. Cheesus will soon live in him.

12. Ever wonder how these loons know what JEEEEZUUUUZZZZSSUH looked like?

It's not like Matthew Brady and his camera were around back then. And the portrait painters were still working in two dimensions.

So how the hell do the religiously insane among us identify the image of JEEEEEEZUUUUUUZZZZZSSSSSSUH on a tortilla or in an oil stain on the shower floor in a West Texas auto parts store or as a three-dimensional Cheeto?

Must be something that gets revealed when you accept Cheesus as your personal savior. I'm still considering... On the one hand, I get to know what our lord and savior actually looked like. On the other, I have to turn into a Cheesus freak and fundie nut case to get that knowledge.

Nah... I'll pass.

25. Anthropomorhic pattern-recognition is something hardwired into the human mind.

Evolutionarily, it served to heighten danger awareness, such as seeing a cheetah (not the cheetos cheetah, though) rustling in the dry brush stalking you before it kills you.

Like so many things we primates evolved to survive during prehistory, it's value in the modern world is dubious at best.

The way things are going, likely it won't be a century before such animal survival skills become more valuable as part if "modern life".
