Can you see Jesus in this Cheeto? 'Cheesus'

Posted on 03/21/2008 9:53:30 AM PDT by Between the Lines

HOUSTON (KTRK) -- A local church youth leader wants you to see a cheese curl that reminds him of Jesus.

A couple of years ago, the youth director at Memorial Drive United Methodist Church in Houston was snacking in the church youth offices when he noticed an odd-shaped Cheeto. Upon further inspection, Steve Cragg determined he could see a familiar image of Jesus in the shape of the cheese curl.

One of the church youth named the item in question 'Cheesus.'

'Cheesus' has remained on a bookcase in Cragg's office since its discovery.

"I do not think that God makes Cheetos that look like Jesus or creates images of Himself on screen doors. I do know that God reveals Himself to us in a zillion different ways," Cragg said. "Seeing the image of Christ in a Cheeto means that I was able to imagine it. God's creation is full of signs and things that can and do remind us of Him."

Cragg was moved to share a photo of 'Cheesus' with others in anticipation and honor of Easter.

I gotta say that’s one cool Cheeto. I would’ve saved it myself.

The MSM mocking Jesus on Good Friday? Nah. No reason for outrage.

Boycott is sufficient.

I think you are right. It is Lt. Dan diving off the side of the boat.

I don't see why. After all, it's not like it's a Flaming Hot Cheeto.

Religion is like a bag of Cheetos; you never know when you will come across Cheesus.

What’s amazing is there’s been no biological degradation in two years.
