quicksand Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 We are all so very familiar with an adult Jesus nailed to the cross. But why wait until Jesus was a 30-something? If Jesus is as pure and innocent as a new-born, why delay until he's an adult to pin his ass to the cross? (Yes I know the gospels follow pre-established religious narratives...) Isn't his purity & innocence effectively the same in both cases? My thinking that an adult Jesus is perceived, ever so slightly, as less innocent or as pure as child - much less a new born to the believer. If it was little baby jesus nailed to the cross, do you think Christians would salivate over the torture death of a new born like they do over an adult every Sunday? Just a thought experiment... what do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ixolite Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Well, there are pictures of baby Jesus on the cross, not nailed to it, but either sleeping under or on it, like this one: http://www.rubylane.com/shops/waterside-dream/item/YLIJ-J-S2 or similiar depictions like those: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitchu Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Aaaah.... each depiction more charming than the last. If only all of us could have baby pictures featuring the means and method of our demise.... well... I can dream, can't I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noob Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 If only all of us could have baby pictures featuring the means and method of our demise.... My family has a history of heart disease. When I read this comment I could just visualize myself as baby propped up next to a huge diseased heart. Ewww... not exactly a charming baby picture! Of course, a stroke is also a possibility. Maybe it would be baby noob and the giant brain. Then again, maybe not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antlerman Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 Baby beneath mangled auto? Baby within shark's jaws? Baby atop mound of crack vials? (I'm seeing a perverse coffee table book in the making, here...) This is too funny. In the case of Jesus, since he was executed, perhaps we could have baby pics of other humans put to death depicting their baby pictures with a hangman's nooses behind them, or electric chairs, guillotines, a firing squad, a stoning pit, a stake with a pile of wood beneath it, etc. It's disturbing to see those pics sentimentalizing the execution of human, representing a baby embracing the means of its own future elimination from life. Maybe we should make baby toys out of crosses? "coochy coochy coo... baby wanna play with your toy crucifix?" Good god, we're a strange species.
