Well, Christ takes away the sins of the world. Maybe Christ inspired the an artist to white wash this board that broke the 1st Commandment.

But they got Jesus holding a beer up and that's not right.

How bout a billboard with Mohammed holding a beer?

Beer is proof that God exists and wants us to be happy. Benjamin Franklin?

Yeah, verily. Nothing washes down those dry old loaves and fishes like a cold Bud.

If this were a picture of Mohammed holding a beer you would see liberal politicians, civil rights leader and students rising up in anger, calling this billboard yet another example of American racism and cultural insensitivity. But in this country it is only appropriate to offend a person's beliefs if he or she happens to be Christian...in fact, it is in most places this taken as a sign of superior intelligence. On University campuses you can pretty much say anything against Christianity and you will get nods of approval from the enlightened ones...but if you dare say anything slightly negative against any other belief system you will be labeled a racist, Nazi, or ignorant redneck.

The artist believes it's art, but it looks like an advertisement with Jesus as a pitchman for Budweiser beer. The painting shows Jesus holding a bottle of beer.

I think we all need to boycott Budweiser and all the beer they manufacture AND let them know why we won't be buying anymore! This infuriates me.

Anyone got contact information?

One person said, "People are getting killed in accidents because of beer. But they got Jesus holding a beer up and that's not right."

"People are getting killed in accidents because of beer. But Jesus turned water into high quality wine. And that's not right." Yeah, right. I just don't Jesus would be promoting any brand of alcoholic beverage but his own. Also, was this an ad for Budweiser (I don't think so) or some ad for an arts council kind of thing with the artist having depicted Jesus as holding a bottle of Bud?

The other day I was driving home and I noticed one of those billboards advertising some lady who was 'spreading the word of god' and some one spray painted this over the bill board "STOP INSUTIONALIZING CHRIST." I think that fits this situation like a glove, this type of advertising angers people because companies are trying to make money off of our lord.

...I find comfort in the fact, when Christ comes back to earth, He's going to be very angry. And, I don't think He wants to see a cross. I'll have plenty of cold water ready...

Imagine if it was a billboard showing Mohammed pitching for the "Other White Meat", or Je$$e touting the new KKK lynching game.
