I've been saying for years: "I would love to have been there at that finance council meeting when someone said, 'We could take this $75,000 and feed the poor, or do some social outreach ministry, or we could fund missionary work overseas...OR...we could build a giant statue of Jesus sinking into a lake. Let's go with that!"
Apparently, they do baptisms in the outdoor lake...I can see/hear it: "I baptize you in the name of the (INSERT TRUCKER HORN HERE) Father (HORN)...."
I get to pass "Big butter Jesus" twice each day, coming to and from campus - it warms my heart. I can hear him crying, "Help me - I'm drowning!"
Ah, touchdown Jesus. My personal fav example of American evangelicalism's idea of "Christian" art.
