Controversial chocolate Jesus exhibit canceled - CNN.com
I always figured that a chocolate jesus made more sense than chocolate bunnies, but aparently Jesus didn’t have a dick, or if he did have a dick, it is somehow offensive to show his divine member. I don’t really get what’s so offensive about a chocolate jesus, but then […]
