update: Sweet Jesus!

Recently, Scot S W posted an item about the chocolate Jesus which has since become notorious all across the world. Scot made an excellent point or two. To see shame in this artwork may be silly. (See below, or CLICK HERE )


Here are some new developments.
1. Chocolate Jesus is in hiding:

The artist who created this artwork has put his creation in a refrigerated truck, and he isn't saying where. Meanwhile, he looks for a new venue.

2. It's definitely not the first chocolate Jesus.

A little research has revealed that edible Messiahs of the chocolate type are not unheard of.
In fact, this is not the first crucified Jesus chocolate art work extant.

3. Go watch and hear Tom Waits sing his "Chocolate Jesus" song from 2004.

Some of the lyrics are:

"I fall on my knees every sunday
At zerelda lees candy store

Well its got to be a chocolate jesus
Make me feel good inside
Got to be a chocolate jesus
Keep me satisfied"

4. Go here to buy your own chocolate Jesus candies and then you can eat them for Easter. (Get a Virgin Mary, also.) CANDY HERE

(you can even get Marys or choir boys)


5. Even the Last Supper has been done, and this in two colors of chocolate. That's Jesus in the middle .

We conclude that it's not the medium (chocolate) or the message (Christianity) or the milieu (art), that offends several people, it's the penis!
