Mark Jenkins’ Jesus 2.0

I didnt really think that Jesus needed another make-over, not after the Buddy Jesus from Dogma. But Mark Jenkins in 2006 decided that he needed to create a new version that identified with people today. So logically, he outfitted two child-size blow up doll with alien antenna and hung it on a street lampposts. Obviously an artistic statement, what are your reactions? Is it funny? Offensive? Obscene? Or is it deeper than the surface might show? Any thoughts?

      THE SEMINARIAN WAGER
Everyone has faith. Regardless of how our faith developed, we should be willing to critically analyze those beliefs. While analyzing the validity of our faith, we should also be willing to analyze the validity of our doubts and cultural preconditions. If we are willing to do this, we wager that over time, the roots of our faith will strengthen toward truth, and will not be uprooted during challenging times. This site aims to provide worthwhile discussion regarding a critical evaluation of both religious belief and modern doubts.
