I think he's playing the "height advantage" scam to a new level. Kind of like Shaq showing up at the local Biddy League game!

Yep, I should have called it "Jesus plays Keep-away"

"Jesus shows his Omnipotence by being Taller than his Opponents (children)."

ROFLOL

I had to go see if these were for real. I am now so truly creeped out that I have to go do actual work to clear my head...that anybody would actually purchase such a thing is either the most wonderfully surreal thing I've heard in a long time, or a horrifying example of how utterly out of touch I am with my fellow humans.

madeye - 2005-08-16 1:06 PM  I had to go see if these were for real.

I could totally see my husband's grandparents purchasing something like this.  I get some sort of christian-themed "figurine" for Christmas every year (and no, they are not displayed ANYWHERE in my house)!! 

How come Jesus is always portrayed hanging out with modern-day children in ratty old robes?  Don't you think he'd be willing to put on a pair of shorts to play basketball?

Anyhow, these are hilarious.  Disturbing, but funny

Umm.. Those kids look like they are from the '70's. And they are wearing team jerseys. Could JC be the ref?

And of course the title of this wonderful piece of art is

"Jesus' Hail Mary Shot"

conan o'brien did a segment on these figurines a couple years ago and when i saw it, i fell off the couch laughing.  soooo hilarious.  these figures are really creepy.  "jesus taunts small children by not letting them have the ball".
