Who ever keeps making these

STOP. IT.

YOUR STATUES DO NOT NEED WIGS.

(a song to go along with these terrible statues.)

Holy Week-Day 4

This was a short little series.  But today, being that I will not be posting again until Easter since this is kind of a serious few days, I feel like I can't choose which one is the worst.

So take this as a double stuffed post.

This has EVERYTHING: A nativity set, featuring people not at the nativity, a Divino Nino the Sacred Heart...what look like mini monstrances, a statue of God the Father (always uncomfortable...) AND  a scary Jesus. Buy this, and you'll never need to buy anything ever again. Literally.

Aaaaaaaaaaand, this.

Holy Week-Day 3

I dont think there's anything I could possibly add...

Holy Week-Day 2

Are you tired of this style of crucifix that doesn't make you feel NEARLY guilty enough?  Tired of a tasteful displayed reminder of the Lord's suffering, and in need of one that will make you not only weep for pity, but vomit?

WELL LOOK NO FURTHER!

4 entire bottles of red paint were used in the making of this crucifix

"the loin cloth is still white, Sr. Maria Maria Conswella Maria Immolata"
"Hand me a tooth brush, my niece Maria did this in kindergarten to make stars..."

"Sr. Maria Maria Conswella Maria Immolata?"
"Yes, Mother Maria Maria of the Five Wounds and the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Conception?"
"The cheeks...they are too rosy"

"What should I do, mother?"
"Rip them off."

This honestly makes Mel Gibson's passion look like freaking "The Gospel of John".  Have you seen that movie? Legit, the mother of sorrow's reaction to seeing her Beloved Son dying in agony is "ooh." not "OOOH!" but just "ooh."

Holy Week-Day 1

Well, since it's you know...the biggest week of the Christian year, I ought to do something special.
So this week...except for Good Friday for obvious reasons...I will be posting the worst images I can find of Our Lord's passion.

So.  Drum roll, plzthnks...........

Here is Jesus' high school graduation photo from 1997

A la...

Nothing says beautiful photography like a portrait with the head of the person IN the picture floating ominously in the background....I have an aunt who has ALL of her kids graduation pictures in this style...where there's one serious picture and then their HEAD just hangin' out in the background smiling. I want to get this done with me and my pug, but just a photo of Percy, then me smiling in the background, like he's dreaming of me...oh yeah and that's a bad Jesus picture and stuff.

You're not thinking inclusivley

Exactly HOW do you expect to attract wizards to your congregation, Spanish holy week penitents?!

Aren't you aware it hearkens on some disturbing images from Wizarding history?

Like the 1994 Quidditch world cup?  Honestly, it's like you didn't think this through at ALL!

And not to mention

I feel like this could work here

Ok, so I know I said I'd only post classy stuff...but this kind of irked me

There's a pentecostal 'church' (yes i said it, 'church' there I said it twice. No priest, no Eucharist, no Church.) near me that is having a "messianiac passover meal" and i was like "wth!" so i looked at it...turns out by "messianic passover meal" they mean "a memorial meal of bread (matzah) and wine we take together to remember Yeshua Messiah"

Uhm...

I feel bad for them. Only once a year? Really? I'd die without the Blessed Sacrament.

Also, I don't get the "saying things in another language just because we sound cool" thing. Yes, that includes Latin. But saying "Yeshua Messiah" or singing the "Shadai Israel" instead of "Hear, O Israel" or whatever just seems stupid to me.

Oh! Another thing that irks me...people that insist on saying "Christ-follower" instead of "Christian" as if "Christian" is a dirty word. It's all well and good to follow Christ...but being "of" (---ian) Christ seems a bit better to me.

Anyway...here's some pictures of the Blessed Sacrament for classy week
