It’s peeps, kids. What’s the big deal?

I’m sick of all of this christians-as-victims crap every time some holiday rolls around.

Lighten up. It’s just peeps.

I pray that our God and Lord would withdraw the veil from their hearts.

Thank you Derek! Someone who gets my turn of phrases. Sigh of relief – there’s one of you.

It’s nothing more than a witty play on words. It’s as innocuous as a fingerpainting of Jeuss.

Anyone taking umbrage should relax…and have a Peep.

Yes, I can kind of see that, although if I saw a naked Moses, it wouldn’t bother me, I don’t think. But a naked Gandhi or MLK, yeah – that could be disturbing. Interesting what affects our sensitivities.

Thanks for the comment and reading.

Oh, and, well, with me-I confess – anything having to do with peeps is bound to make me smile – they are just so curious to me! lol

For me it wasn’t that the artist created Jesus crucified in chocolate, the irreverence was showing him totally naked. That is the part to me that seems designed to anger instead of provoke thought. I guess that is why the peeps Jesus seems ok to me, but the “sweet Jesus” makes me a bit uncomfortable. I’m really not a prude about naked art objects, but I’d rather see people whose lives I esteem shown with some clothing. Though I guess Michelangelo did show David without his clothing and
God creating the naked Adam. Hummm, I don’t have the same reaction to these. I don’t think I would be happy to see someone depict a naked
Gandhi or Martin Luther King Jr. either.
Actually, I find the whole crucifix image distasteful. I’d rather focus on the life of Jesus, not his death. That is another reason the Jesus and his peeps doesn’t bother me, but the other one does.
Thanks for encouraging me to ponder my reaction to this.

Excellent point, Fahrender. Couldn’t say it better.
