    Controversial Crucifix

    I saw this in the Daily Oklahoman. Apparently some people think there is a penis hidden in this crucifix from a local Catholic Church. I'm not so sure. Very controversial issue right now in Oklahoma. Here is the news story: http://www.newsok.com/warr-acres-cat...ad_story_title

    There is definitely not a hidden penis.

      What are you "not so sure" about? It doesn't look like abs.

        The first thing I thought of was Mickey Avalon's hidden track on his debut album.

          That's what I was thinking.
          What's to explain? It's a bunch of people, most of whom you've never met, who are just as likely to be homicidal maniacs as they are to be normal everyday people, with whom you share the minutiae of your everyday life. It's totally normal, and everyone would understand.

              If I created the universe, I'd be built like that too.

                  Janet Jaime is the artist who designed the crucifix hanging in St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church. She was unavailable for comment, but her husband said critics are misinterpreting a common religious icon.

                  “This isn't just a subjective drawing. This is a historical icon of the church,” said Reggie Jaime, husband of Janet Jaime, an Oklahoma City iconographer commissioned by the church to design the crucifix. “I can't help what you see in things, or she sees in things, or anyone.”

                  The church's pastor, Father Phillip Seeton, referred questions Wednesday to the Oklahoma City Archdiocese.

                    Exactly what my first thought was. The line in the chorus of that song finally makes since to me.

                      That's a pretty crude line in a pretty crude song. But the 6th grader in me cracks up at some of the lines.

                        Hmm. Not Jewish penis anyway. At least, it doesn't look circumcised to me.
