HOLY CRAP!!! You have got to check this out! If you think you've seen the very depths of religious kitsch... think again. Catholic Supply of St. Louis, Inc. has dug that hole much... much deeper.
You've heard the old joke "Jesus Saves... But Gretzky scores on the rebound!" Well, the "Son of God" has left his goalie post and decided to be the third man in at the face off at this link. Did the game rules change in Vatican II and nobody told us? Well, at least that explains the presence of Satan on the Buffalo Sabres. That matchup should be good.
Don't miss out on the other sports linked under the title "Sports Minded" on that page. Second to the hockey statue is the basketball statue. TheOnion.com had their spoof "Jesus Returns to the NBA." I think now we only need wait a little while for bobble-head Jesus.
It's only appropriate that Jesus play sports since all the athletes constantly thank him for hating the other team so much.
Oh wait... it gets better (or is it worse?)... click on the Other Sports link and you'll see that more statues are coming: Ballet, Martial Arts, Golf, Skiing, Gymnastics and Biking.
I surrender to reality... for it has just trumped all my previous sacrilegious humor to date. I plan to buy some of these. They will certainly be some of my most cherished possessions.
