all you religious people taking this offensively need to calm the fuck down. the artist himself (cosimo cavallaro) said that this sculpture was not created to offend anyone. so what does that say. you as religious freaks are always trying to find the meaning of everything and in this case the negative in art. so what if hes naked its really not that big of a deal. and as for the chocolate part, cosimo stated that its the sweetest thing he could think about resembeling jesus as.
all of this shit OVER A FUCKING PENIS? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!?!?!?!? I HAVE A PENIS! GOD HAS A PENIS, THE POPE HAS A PENIS, BILL DONAHUE AHS A PENIS! WHAT THE FUCK?!?!? and if its made form an edible substance, HOLY FUCKING SHIT! GET A FUCKING LIFE AMERICA!
You are looking at it from an Islamic angle whereby you cannot idolize a prophet in any form (drawings,statues,etc). This isn't true in Christianity (those who are moaning) otherwise churches wouldn't have statues & ppl wouldn't wear crucifixes. Oh and Jesus wasn't just a man sent by God, he was God in human form - the Trinity (according to Christianity).
But yeh, people moan & get offended too easily, they need to chill out then maybe we wouldn't have so much trouble over religion that we have.
Where in The Bible does it say that you can make an idol of God or any of the prophets? It strictly forbids idol worship--it's one of the Ten Commandments, if you remember. From what I understand, God doesn't want us to worship anything made by man. Just because the church does something doesn't make it right--you have to look at The Bible and decide for yourself.
thefakeblahman- Troodat! and I'll betcha Bill D. has such a teeny wienie that he's jellus because the sculptor(choclatier?) gave his statue such a beaut! Ya think?
I heard the statue was put on display on a public sidewalk. And those organizing the display who stood by the statue asked people walking by to eat a certain apendage on the staute. That is why Christians are offended.
yeah, he was just on a coffee break, seeing how the whole judaism and paganism were workin out. Thought it was time to add some more spices to this concoction so he tossed down jesus, them mohamed, the whoever founded mormonism etc etc.
I thought Fatwas were made as religious edicts by a group of religious people. The word is Arabic, but it's connotations and similar words is universal. The Vatican makes statements and edicts all the time. I believe they call them 'decrees' or something.
I do believe that Mr. Donahue made a decree about religion... which shows his ignorance.
Get this video down from Youtube. It is offensive & utter blasphemy. It does not represent any religion and does no good for society.

The reason people are irate is because God is not a Chocolate statue. God is not a Human!
Those that describe him as human are disrespect the Lord.
Christ was a man sent by God and even making a Chocolate statue of the prophet Jesus shows a lack of decency.
Muslims show respect to Christ and Mother Mary.
Perhaps this requires some pondering on your part!

Worship no other god than THE GOD...
cast NO graven Images.
It was only later after the council of Nicea that the idea of statues and images became allowed by the church.
There is only one God...He has No partner...No wife...No son. Glorified is The LORD beyond this.
Muslims have nothing but praise for the great Jesus son of Mary. And all Muslims wait for the Return of Jesus!
