Is there any Christian on this board (other than me) who finds this student’s actions offensive?

I find them to be at least of questionable taste.

At the same time, I find the principal's explanation...unfulfilling. If she had said that Christians complained about the costume, it might have made more sense to send him home - but I'll bet that if Christians had complained about the wide variety of Satanic imagery in other costumes, nothing would have happened to those students.

Should we? What should we find offensive?

I do. I thought he dressed up like Jesus because he considered that scary.

Yep, count me in. If a student had showed up in my class dressed like Jesus I would have kicked him out. It is over the top offensive to me. That being said, none of my students dressed up at all this year.

Yep. It’s the same as the “Jesus is my homeboy” t-shirts and other blasphemous garbage that treat the Savior as a joke.

The 2nd Commandment is still law, people.
