Checkmate Christians! (i.imgur.com)

I saw another redditor refer to it as "Rhesus Jesus", which I greatly approve of.
[–]Greyhaven7 2 points3 points4 points 7 days ago

Lol not bad.

I missed the original and haven't understood a single one of these posts. Would someone be so kind as to please fill me in on what this awkward little painting is?

Basically an amateur took it upon herself to restore an old painting of Jesus in a church. This was the end result.
[–]Greyhaven7 3 points4 points5 points 7 days ago
What really happened
[–]Smike713 4 points5 points6 points 7 days ago
What is this picture supposed to be? I mean, is there a story behind it or something that I missed?
[–]dizzyelk[S] 19 points20 points21 points 7 days ago
Some amateur decided to restore an ancient picture of Jesus in a church, and ended up with this.
[–]CappinKnots 6 points7 points8 points 7 days ago
So by restore, she didnt make a seperate copy, she just painted over the damn thing right? aha
[–]Die-Nacht 2 points3 points4 points 7 days ago
Well a restore means restoring the original, not copying. She was just not an art restorer and should have never done that.
But because she did, all atheists now have the work of art in the OP.

Thank you. Now I know :)

Reminds me of a Curb Your Enthusiasm moment:

I love how Larry David says he thought Jesus was a monkey. I don't know if it was meant to be implied, but it sounds like he's making a joke about creationism/ evolution. How so many people refuse to accept that we share a common ancestor with monkeys and instead choose to believe in a literal reading of Genesis. I could be reading into this way too far. I also love that Larry already has his hands up as he comes down the stairs.

[–]thechapattack 1 point2 points3 points 6 days ago
Ay! You leave monkey jesus alone! He cant help you. He's too busy dealing with monkey shit!
[–]mleavi 0 points1 point2 points 6 days ago
Not a checkmate at all. I'm a Christian and believe in evolution. Next. ;)
[–]putitright 1 point2 points3 points 6 days ago
I would love to known how she envisioned her creation turning out in her mind .. Maybe she thought it wouldn't look so bad from afar. Much like religion, it looks looks worse and worse upon closer inspection.
[–]BdrLen 0 points1 point2 points 6 days ago
I really want a mask that looks like that for hallowe'en
[–]Verilith -1 points0 points1 point 7 days ago

Everyone knows that grammar comes from people and not the LORD, so therefore is an abomination!

Please don't make fun of this. Just an honest mistake by a hard worker.
[–]dizzyelk[S] 10 points11 points12 points 7 days ago
Hard worker? She was an amateur who wandered into a church and defaced art trying to restore it without the talent to do so.
[–]DeFex -3 points-2 points-1 points 7 days ago
The church asked her to do it.
An elderly parishioner has stunned Spanish cultural officials with an alarming and unauthorised attempt to restore a prized Jesus Christ fresco.
But nice try.
[–]DeFex -1 points0 points1 point 7 days ago
TV told me they did. TV never lies!
[–]TeaPartyNewKKK 1 point2 points3 points 6 days ago
She has now been identified as an agent of American Atheists. She's planning a visit to the Sistine Chapel.
[–]dizzyelk[S] 1 point2 points3 points 7 days ago
Yeah, because "If evolution isn't real, why does Jesus look like a proto-human" is a wonderful ridicule of an argument that is ridiculous and wrong (i.e. "If people evolved from monkeys, why are there monkeys?"). Basically if you're going to ridicule an argument that is wrong, you use the words used by those making said wrong argument.
[–]very_old_guy 1 point2 points3 points 6 days ago*
It's incorrect to say we didn't evolve from apes. We are, in fact, apes. You are an ape. Your parents are apes. Our hominid ancestors were apes.
