Big Butter Jesus, Big J, Touchdown Jesus, Super Jesus, Drowning Jesus, whatever the name its toast.

This 62-foot tall statue of Jesus on the east side of Interstate 75 at the Solid Rock Church, a 4000+ member Christian megachurch near Monroe, Ohio, took a lighting strike this past Monday night. The statue was set on an island at the head of the church's baptismal pool, flanked by fountains and lit by colored spotlights. It depicted Jesus from the chest up, with his arms and head raised to the sky. The statue had a 42-foot span between its upraised hands and a 40-foot Christian cross at its base. The completed statue weighed 16,000 pounds. People out there are bugging out, I can image what some people are thinking.
