Is Buddy Jesus Offensive to Christians?

[Nutz]

There is no law that gives anyone the right to not be offended, and somehow I don't think Nutz is concerned about offending anyone.

Controversy is marketing in itself. I just want to know if Buddy Jesus is outright offensive to Christians and a divisive depiction of Jesus, or something some Christians would mildly disagree with while others embrace it.


You should know that...you have spent a lot of time manufacturing controversy to create a buzz against blackie.

Do you think Buddy Jesus is offensive to Christians? I personally have no issue with it and see no reason to be offended. Jeremiah Interested in your opinion.

Some Christians do not need a reason to be offended, and other couldn't give a shit about Buddy Jesus. Me personally, my first instinct when seeing it is to think "60's hippies" not "Jesus" and then I remind myself.

LOL...my thoughts exactly...Wasn't there a similar drawing made in the 60's.

I have seen some Christians offended like a Muslim is offended if a picture of Muhammed is drawn. I have seen some laugh and embrace buddy Jesus.

Do you think Buddy Jesus is controversial at all?

BTW, there is no angle to this...I am actually thinking about incorporating a similar image into a current project.

Not sure about similar design. 60's was well before my time.

99% of the time I see BJ, it is a meme; and 99% of those times it is with the "Cool Story, Bro" caption, so if people are offended, it is probably for other reasons. I am unaware of Buddy Jesus being controversial.

You're really reaching there, Nutzack.

Yes. The mocking of Jesus is offensive. Hey Nuz, haven't seen you in a while. Where ya been, jail?

Yabut, you comb the InterWebs for things to get all hysterical and het up about.

How is this offensive?

I mean, besides that it shows him as white.

There was a big discussion about it on another forum. I am just trying to get a feel for attitudes.

You will never be truly saved until you are honest with yourself. Embrace your hatred and don't let it control you!

I love "Buddy Jesus!" I keep meaning to buy one...

That movie could have been so much funnier...

You are an Atheist too, right?

Oh, wait...you lost that to your grand wizard....didn't you call him, Grand Daddy?

That was funny!

Do you think Iranians hanging queers is offensive?

 

[Carla_Danger]

The TV show about Black Jesus looked pretty funny, but I haven't bothered to see when it's on.

 

[Nutz]

Do you think Iranians hanging queers is offensive?

Not necessarily...but I find racists like yourself to be extremely offensive. Nice to see you can't form a coherent argument here either. Stick to the race baiting, little boy, adults are talking.

It was in bad taste.

The trailer was funny.

I believe you have a question to answer in another thread before you start burying yourself in this one.

Does Buddy Jesus come with a magnet? How does he attach to the dashboard?

 

[hjmick]

Is this offensive?

It is to the good Reverend Shaw Moore...

 

[Nutz]

Is this offensive?

I don't. I certainly understand why it might bother some...but it doesn't bother me at all. I would much rather someone play with a picture of Jesus than masturbate to porn.

Why are you stalking me from thread to thread?

I told you to put up or STFU, and your answer was to let everyone read 34 pages of thread instead. Go bother someone else.
