Jesus Christ Struck by Lightning
As reported by the Daily Mail Reporter a 60 feet tall and 40 feet wide representation of the Lord, North of Cincinnati, Ohio, was struck by lightning and burned to a crisp.
Because of the upraised arms, the likeness of the Prince of Peace was referred to as “touchdown Jesus” by the locals. Whether this act of God was considered as the heralding of the second coming by members of the evangelical Solid Rock Church, where the statue once stood, or an elaborate act of terrorism, is unknown.
Below are before, during and after photos of the prophetic oddity.

How can you guys joke about him being struck by lightning? And nobody mentioned lightning in LA that I spoke to.
Has anybody told Rachel and the kids?
Oh wait, that other guy, not my cousin Jesus.
Never mind.
He is just laughing because God likes him better than the burning Jesus. He is laughing to himself saying, see you morons I am harder to kill than the X Men.
After the burning man went, their church looks like a big bug with antenna.
Pshaw, that is not an antenna, it is zombie Jesus man. Kinfolk to Buddy Jesus but a little more dead.
God is all pissed about other graven images. He smited it for being tacky with the resin and styrofoam.
Ha Ha…You just wanted to use the word “smited”
Damn, foiled again. I thought only Bee knew me that well, apparently I was wrong. Is it smited or smote, I can never get it right when I use that word.
More like God “Smoked” the shit…Is God a terrorist then?
Smote/smite, tomato/tomaaaato. Let’s use it in a sentence: Locketh your word-horde, wench, or I shall smote you with the back of me hand. I say smote.
ooh and you a man of the law, using that language. I would tell you to be ashamed of yourself, but it would probably be falling on deaf ears :).
