Are you talking about Big Butter Jesus?
I used to use Big Butter Jesus as a landmark in giving directions to my house. “Go past Big Butter Jesus… no, seriously… you’ll know what I mean when you see it, just go past it…”
RIP Big Butter Jesus.

Are you saying Drudge Report is just innards and cartilage?
Snout and sphincter.
The snout is inside the sphincter, just as God and Trump intended.
If only Jack Chick were still around to write a tract about this.
Yeah, conservatives lose their sh*t when they see one, even ones that aren’t upside down, not that i have a problem with those either, just sayin they don’t even know there is a distinction, or the meaning or anything about it…
#“Satan get behind me!”
~ Jesus (Matthew 16:23)
(those look more like flowers to me…but whatever.)
ArtNews spoke with Marina Abramovic to get her reaction. She is not happy:
“I’m outraged, because this is taken completely out of my context,” Abramovic told me by phone this afternoon. She was at Sean Kelly Gallery, her rep in New York. The dinner, she explained, was a reward for donors to a Kickstarter campaign she had run. Tony Podesta has collected her work since the 1990s, and he attended, but John couldn’t make it. In fact, she has never met John Podesta.
“It was just a normal dinner,” Abramovic said, adding that about 10 people attended. “It was actually just a normal menu, which I call spirit cooking. There was no blood, no anything else. We just call things funny names, that’s all.” (The Kickstarter page advertised “traditional soups.”)
Spirit Cooking, Abramovic explained, was a performance she staged at a number of museums around the world in the ‘90s, painting graffiti with pigs’ blood. She also made a limited-edition book, which contains various recipes. That book is in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, among other places.
And the Satanism charge? “Anybody who wants can read my memoirs and find out that [my work] is far away from Satanism,” she said. (The book was just released this week, she noted, and it’s doing well on Amazon.) “My work is really more about spirituality and not anything else,” she continued. “I’ve been doing my work for so long, and this is a misunderstanding.” She said of the right-wing attacks, “It’s absolutely outrageous and ridiculous.”
It’s not nearly as exciting as you’d think.
Seriously, the most powerful, amazing, transformative magick I’ve ever experienced, to an outsider basically just looks like some dude sitting and staring at a candle for two hours.
One of the reasons I love New England. Social conventions here are pretty adamant about minding your own business when it comes to that sort of thing. Also, I spent the last 15 years less than an hour from Salem, the Wiccan Disney World. It’s almost like being part of the dominant culture.
But I’m never quite comfortable south of the Mason-Dixon.
I would say that literalism would betray a lack of understanding of their own system. Communion is enabled by a ritual of transubstantiation - converting one thing into another to communicate a special meaning - which in other contexts is exactly how metaphor works. And either way, Christ is also a metaphor. It is metaphors all the way down. Giant Metaphor 2016!
When Giant Metaphor strikes the Earth, will we all be transubstantiated together?
Or will the effects be confined to a blast zone?
the last one turned all the dinosaurs into birds
We will be twerking a frenzy - that’s why we call it “end times”! Woohoo!
This leak is no leak.
This is politics, ugly, and cross-partisan. If everyone aired their dirty e-mails, the Republic would fall…trust me.
Grow up.
That’s lame. With Umbanda, Quimbanda, Candomblé, Palo, and others it sounds like Brazil has a lot more diversity of belief systems than many areas. So I was hoping that there would be less harassment.
I thought it was clear that the Sex was very important
I think emphasis is verily everything. “Sexy”? Nah.
Please try “…sex was very important…”
Case closed.
I’ve never understood that. How do they know it’s not actually just rotated 72°? That would hardly be “upside-down.”
Are you familiar with the nude beach paradox?
The likelihood of seeing someone on a nude beach is inversely proportionate to how badly you would like to see them naked.
In my experience, the wild sex magic orgies follow this same principle.
