Subject: Granite Jesus???
Written By: philbo on 07/01/08 at 7:37 am
The Register"]John Ganster, co-owner of the Verona Marble Company stone company first recognized the divinity of his 1,000-pound chunk of masonry when a customer inquired about purchasing the "Jesus slab."
A picture of the stone, procured from Dallas Morning News footage shows stained granite that indisputably depicts the son of God and divine Messiah of the Christian people, whose coming was prophesied in the Old Testament.
Or possibly one of those hooded skeleton dudes from Lord of the Rings.

Is it just me, or is there something there that makes the second coming look an awful lot more imminent?

Take a closer look.
When you see it, you'll *blank* bricks. Just be thankful Angus didn't.

I can definitely see the outline of a human figure in the granite, but I am not sure how one makes the jump that it is a divine image.
I mean, it could as easily be an image of the Phantom Fireworks mascot holding a handkerchief.
Reminds me of the woman who found a potato that was the spitting image of Richard F. Nixon. ;D

Well I don't care if it rains or freezes,
Long as I got my granite Jesus
Headstone in the bedpan of my truck,
Through all trials and tribulations,
And my travels through the nation,
With my granite Jesus I'll go far!
Granite Jesus!
Granite Jesus!
Weighin' down the bedpan of my truck.
I'm afraid for my window,
I hit the brakes and through he'll go,
And if I have a wreck then I'll be f*bleep*ed!

Looks to me like the deed has already been done. Notice how flaccid it looks, like after the fact. And on the left I think I see the object of his affections, not smoking a cigarette, and much smaller than he is, but apparently with some, shall we say. beaver? Could this be the Christ getting it on with a 12-13 year old, or is this the anti-Christ in disguise? I have indicated some of the features that are suggestive. Have fun :) :) ;) ;) :D :D
