While on vacation i stopped in this cheese store (Wisconsin). And i found a Jesus action figure. His arms were posable and he had gliding action. My question is, "Is this disrespectfull"? I was looking at it and these two old ladies came by and just said"how disrespecfull". http://tony.tbclife.net/2008/12/jesus-is-not-gi-joe.html

Sorry about the blog on the website, its the only place i could find a picture.

I have a Christian friend with a very similar toy, and I don't think it's that bad anyway.

It is disrespectful to Christians, I guess.

What I really want is an action figure Buddha.

I am a Christian and I don't even find it slightly offensive at all. People get too easily offended these days.

I find the cross to be disrespectful... well not so much disrespectful as sinful which I guess is disrespectful to god.

This though isn't too bad as long as kids aren't worshiping the action figure, or calling it some sort of sacred symbol.

I lol'd at the gliding action part.

Also you should have stood next to the women, stretch your arms, stand in crucifix postilion and yell "I'll be back" for the lulz.

They should make an arch enemy muhammad to go with him. That it if extremists wouldn't lose their **** over it.

On a side note I saw a preachewr once use that action figure to show us bad christians how we treat Jesus. He would take Jesus out when he wanted him, but then tuck him away somewhere out of sight when he didn't. THAT IS WHAT ALL YOU CHRISTIANS DO TO HIM.

It is jesus after all. Hes a very holy person according to the bible. And a play toy jesus could be seen as disrespectfull. Its not a statue or something to be admired, kids can play with this thing and throw it around. It would be like somone spitting on a metallica album. Think of it like that. ;p

Actually the "church" didn't really exist until the day of Pentecost, which was long after Jesus died and was (supposedly) resurrected.

Thats how he "sacrificed" himself for christians. Its the whole basis of the religion. It is however, showing the messiah, dead on two planks of wood.

Technically the Romans did, though according to the Bible it was to appease the Jews.

That would be badass. I tihnk I have seen something like that before to be honest. It was a cartoon portraying Jesus as your stereotypical southern, pro gun conservative. Can't find it though.
