Christans take it on the Chin again
 

A hotel lobby in New York has on display for Easter, a anatomically correct naked, Chocolate Jesus.
I think the Christan's should make a sign thats say "Mohammad" and hang it around his neck. And stand back.

Is there an online photo?

Wow! Some people just can't settle for a chocolate bunny!

Ya know, it would make an interesting project for a psychology class; put it in a public place with a sign saying "Take a bite!", and see how many people would actually do it.

If you really want to look.

Now that I see it, I definetely wouldn't take a bite.

In a historical perspective, He probably was naked when he was nailed to the cross since it was SOP for the Romans to do that to their condemned prisoners; a last humiliation.

It seems to me that the biff is about presumed intention more than about the chocolate creation. And I as well assume the total intent was to degrade and marginalize the Easter season, as usual.
And Doc is right about the naked state of the Roman condemned. From the Coliseum to wherever, that was SOP. And much of the athletic competition among the Roman non-condemned was done in the buff as well, but perhaps more in the spirit of ?trolling n? advertisement ?, rather than public humiliation. ;)

Zo, how about a naked chocolate Mohammed on display for next Ramadan season. That would be a sure way to get a huge smoking hole at the site of the display area, plus have great consequential body count with much wailing and gnashing of teeth within the MSM. Alas, all Prophets are not created equal, apparently, and the MSM will be all over it.

Good idea, Scamp! I'd cut a big hunk off that and feed it to pigs!

How 'bout offering a ham sandwich special for Ramadan?

There are a few versions of the suspended Jesus around, a wooden one in a museum in Oslo that dates to the post Viking era and more currently there is the 1954 ?Crucifixion? by Salvador Dali. The latter being a likely inspiration for the suspended chocolate Jesus created by Cosimo Cavallaro. Like Dali, Cavallaro seems to pursue the image of an eccentric artist, but I?m not sure he can eclipse Dali, ever.

For the brave, a link to the works of Dali.
