hm, well…disregarding the fact that this tattoo is quite….unattractive…there is another problem.
humans, according to the bible, were made in the image of god waaaaay back in the day, adam and eve days.
sooo…is the owner of this tattoo some horrible creature that was spawned from an unfortunate union of unspeakable phantasms and desperately desires to be made in the image of god and be one of us so he can go to “heaven?”
i am really quite confused.

scenester gates… um. jesus was an early jew. as in. not Caucasian.

Madeleine: I think what Scenester Gates was getting at was that this picture is based on the common image of what Jesus Christ has been drawn/painted/sculpted as, regardless of if its an accurate physical likeness to JC or not (ie: ancient jewish vs caucasian physical appearances debates). So in that sense because that’s what this image is based on, there are billions of pictures/paintings,etc that the artist could have used as a reference….heck maybe they DID use one as a reference *shrugs*
And realistically I have to agree with their statement about many Jesus tattoo lookin like Kanye West and all broken/re-constructed jaw like. As that is quite often a lack of ability in adapting a picture on paper to skin, along with shading,etc when it comes to the cheeks and the beard,etc.

ImmureME, that’s exactly what I read and thought “what the hell does that mean?! It makes no sense, this tattoo is rubbish!” Now that I know what it does say… I still think it’s rubbish.

It could be taken as a sarcastic approach.
The bible will tell you we are made in our God’s image but other than a physical level, that is virtually unachieavable, at least according to Christian lore.
