"Well, big surprise: Jesus raises again."

You might want to try not pissing off the Irish Catholics until after they give up the guns.

/Just saying

Did anybody know that "The Last Supper" is actually a true depiction of the guys playing a game of "Judea Hold 'Em"?

Uno anyone?

Everyone knows Catolics play Bingo. Get it right asshat.

Invisible man in the sky, evil religion, stop catholics breeding, down with allah.


//now that's out of the way maybe all the geniuses that normally spout that crap wont bother.
//Who am I kidding?
//No one really.

I know I have to renew my prescription for my glasses but I cannot "clearly see" anything.


/if your going to post a crappy pic, don't farking bother to post any.

From the article:
"To abuse this image, which is central to Christian beliefs,


Leonardo Da Vinci's depiction is just art. That is all it is. The "image" is considered a public interest in that regard.
Now maybe the scripture in the Bible regardin the goings on during the last supper can be considered central to the Christian religion but,,not the art or copies of the art itself.

Perhaps it was the Penultimate Supper...

Hey Catholics! It's a Passover Dinner! If anyone should be pissed it should be us Jews! Stop yer griping, you Goyem Putzes!

/Where's my Dredel?

I know it's a fark cliche to complain about people adding /comments at the end of their actual comment, but I'm doing it anyways.

Those slash comments are irritating.

Dang, I may be in trouble after 8:41 pm tonight....

I think the copyrights to "The Last Supper" expired a long time ago, or is this covered under parody laws??

testaclese: Where's my Dredel?


You mean "Afikoimen", sheigetz.

/Veks vi a tsiballe, mit de kop drert und die fissalach aroisen.

Joan of Fark

Wow, does the woman on the left have 3 legs?

szyska: parody laws??

Even or odd? Your processor wants to know.


(I am a nerd)

So art is religiously sacred now? What next? Cows?

/pointless, irritating slash comment

I looks like Mary Magdalene is all in.

So, as a Christian, I'm supposed to look at this and go "Hey, Jesus gambled, guess I should too"? Is that the intent of the ad? Or is it simply to arouse controversy and generate 10x the publicity?

Ok, what's a zimmer frame?

APE992: Wheee, no link at all!

Link contains the word "advert", vanishes from my browser.

To abuse this image, which is central to Christian beliefs,

Father McGreil writer doesn't know much about religion, does he? Christianity is based on the idea and what happened at the last supper, not some painting of it done centuries after. Monotheistic (and some polytheistic) religions gave up that whole "the image contains the god" idea a long time ago.

No link at all! Yay for AdBlock and filterset.G!

I thought this was funny:

Two previous Paddy Power campaigns also caused controversy.

Animal rights groups complained about one showing a rabbit with a missing paw and the caption, "Make Your Own Luck," while another featured two elderly ladies using Zimmer frames to cross a road with odds written above them.

At the time, Power insisted it was a race to see who could cross the road first, but many saw the odds as relating to which woman would be run over by a car.

Oh. It's a walker. Crazy Irish and their weird names for things...

note the author of the article....

Dude has balls.. BALLS!
Conversation from when I lived in Mullingar:
"Your father doesn't go to Mass?"
"Nope, he used to be Catholic but now he's atheist."
With a look of amazement: "You mean he's a pagan? Does he worship satan?"
"Ummm.. uhhh.. no.. that's not what atheist means."

/Hated going to mass

Jesus was quite the partier

/read the gospels and learn about all the festivals and dinner banquets that he attends.

shipud

Oy. I was trying for the 'gambling' humor, as opposed to the holiday humor. Besides, I never got more than a dollar for finding the freakin Afikomen, because my parents were so cheap. Feh!

GoodyearPimp:

No, I think it's a mix. An ad using an existing theme, altered to fit a different theme. Sorta like if you replaced all the people in Da Vinci's last super with the those poker playing dogs painted on velvet.
What kind of dog would Judas be?...I am thinking,,poodle. No?

12349876: read the gospels and learn about all the festivals and dinner banquets that he attends.

He killed at the John the Baptist Roast.

It's clearly a parody of the monster spaghetti feast.

I'm so outraged I can barely type.

/Is
//nothing
///sacred
////anymore?

Hey, that Jesuit dude needs to take a chill pill -

Ironic that others consider "inappropriate & vulgar" all the cheap plastic saint statues, and velvet Jesus' we got all over the place...

/Hope he puts it up in the Bible Belt here in the US....
//Can you buy t-shirts?

Made this flyer for my band a while back.

So was the priest I knew. Often seen with a few drinks in him and ate at the best resturaunt in town (for free).

Course he can't have sex (unless it's on the sly).

Did he get his name off a Hairdryer?

/At least the bookie isn't getting a bunch of free publicity.
//Are comments required before including slash comments?

What's the latest line on Judas betraying Christ? Is it too late to put a couple bucks on it?

So being a bookmaker is a legal job in the UK. That is cool.

My dog is suing for copyright infringement.

Whats wrong with using a 14th century painting for whatever you want to use it for?

It's not like Jesus or God painted it.

I'll take that action; I have always had my doubts about Thomas.
