No picture of him (sorry, Him) looking at his iPhone?

I will have to check again, but nowhere in the Bible is Jesus described as taking a dump, so therefore . . .

God don’t make no junk crap.

I am sure that didn’t stop enterprising residents selling the holy sh*t of Jesus Christ to some crusader, and it was enshrined as a first class relic in some cathedral somewhere.

… So it’s 34 years old?

This gives me an idea… I’d love for someone not-as-lazy-as-me to rewrite classic books with time appropriate bathroom breaks.

ie.

30 minutes into the last supper John said “sorry my dudes, I gotta take a leak, I didn’t eat lunch and all this wine is going straight through my system”

And the third wise man said “Excuse me, but I gotta use the bathroom, we’ve been walking for hours”

By chance, I saw this right after a friend sent me a link to modern/contemporary design – from Italy, no less – of a cubic toilet.
So sleek… so pure, immaculate in its conception… so not designed to accommodate human legs… just waiting for someone to mistake it for a washing machine and put their dirty clothes in it…
I thought, what would compel these designers to create something so ill-suited to its task. I should have realized it was a throwback to the timeless classics of the ancient Roman Empire.

I’d say that would have been unlikely but the Holy Foreskin was a relic, so why not?

Well, it is halo-shaped, after all…

But is it bigger than Jesus?
