How is this any different from the statue of Jesus in the movie Dogma?

lets all be friends and agree to disagree.1 is muslim 1 is cathlic 1 is christian and you have your none believers.each to there own.we all love it our own way,just be proud of what you believe.AND KEEP YOUR FAITH

You know this is well funny. like Urnemesis said above. no issue with any of you. but i probz should say i am a "christain" if you want to lable me that way. I have been born again and i believe i have a real relationship with christ. thats important, but not really what i wanted to say.

what i wanted to say was. it's a dude winking with a thumbs up in a love like kimono. he can be a hippy. and so what if it is a depictiong of Christ. at least it's causing a debate. at least people know about Christ and what he stands for, and if not they can ask questions.

as a deciple of Christ, our priority is not to fight for God's sake. we are not worriors fighting to protect God. but to proclaim him. Stop fighting, and agree that YES that's Jesus. he's happy and winking becuase he love's you. even if it's somehow promoting a cheap ass phone (iphones forever) lol. I see my job as a "christian" is to tell people about Jesus, not convert, not force, and not sell Jesus to them. just to tell them about Jesus. if you want to know more, feel free to holla at me. if you don't want to know, if you don't want to know, thats your choice.

so i guess i want to say is, this is kinda doing half the work, so "christians" stop complaining, stop getting offended, because if anyone is offended it be God, and no matter how hard you want to try, you can't fight his battle. so let it be.

thank you for your time. truely loved reading the comments. that passions expressed was awesome. you all be blessed :D x

if, as most believers maintain, god is omnipotent, then he must have wanted this brand of phone to sell, after all look at all the extra advertising he has given them.

jesus isa live an well an singing blues

Tell you the truth about the man who wears a dress or the dude in a dress (which you think about it, it is a dress) aka god. i don't give two shits about this
what does he ever do for people and hey it's just an advert.

Muslims wouldn't accept ridicule of Muhammed, so why should Christians put up with insulting images of Jesus? It should be completely illegal to poke fun at all religious figures.

i don't think JESUS deserves to be used on an advert.it's blasphemy!

This is typical of the hypocritical religious reaction.
It reminds me of a great example of a converstion between a Christian and an atheist.

CLARA CHRISTIAN:
If your Pro-choice, You’re a baby killer! Arrest somebody!
Gays and Lesbians are Unnatural Abominations! Stop them from getting married!
Atheists are amoral agents of Satan! Put God in the schools and courts! Show them we’re a Christian Nation!
Somebody Ban this Obscene “Art” Exhibit!

ANNIE ATHEIST:
If you want to believe in God and teach your kids about Christianity, that’s your right, but please just let the rest of us make our own choices, too.

CLARA CHRISTIAN:
STOP PERSECUTING me!!! STOP DISRESPECTING MY BELIEFS!!!
WHY are you WAGING A WAR AGAINST CHRISTIANITY?!!!

I rest my case.

The photo shows Jesus as white that must be wrong
Religion has done enough it is time it was put in its place; it is just a cult to make money (christianity anyway).

Jesus was just an early conman no more than that, not the son of god as there is no god.

Jesus was no more than a David Koresh.

The more people have been educated over the years the more people have realised there is no god, It has got harder to control people and to brainwash people with religion because people are better educated.

God would be over 4.567 billion years old (or maybe he died years ago)

Thank Christ was a Jew

feck a was getting a free 4 life contract

If he was the son of god...surely he could communicate without a phone... ;-)

who said its jesus ? this is just apopular image of what some people like to think looks like jesus !! in any case as a christian its good to get any mention of christ out in the public domain...cheers God !

Jeezux H Christ,,religions shopuld be banned,,

i blame your perants !

Buddy Christ :-)

Wow!! Jesus was like us, and He is with us today in spirit...He is alive today! I think it not wrong for Him to be advertised...as long as it's for good to mankind, but not to deceat for evil purpose....Jesus also have sense of humor...coz' He was human before(*^*^%$%£%&

Its 'The Buddy Christ' from Dogma!

God is a man made creation not fact.

Jesus was a character out of mythology like Moses, Abraham & Allah etc with a spattering of dodgy& actual facts getting lost in the midst of time.

You live on through what you create as taught by religion( is a fact if you think about it).

Creative is man & woman together as they bread the next generation of man & woman.

Woman & Woman or Man & Man are not creative so will die & not live on forever as they create nothing..
This is a teaching of history throughout the ages of mankind and is recognised & these acts between same sex people is reviled & always will be by honest people.

You do not need religion to understand this fact

Marriage is a man & woman coming together (hence the word coming) to create a family.

Civil partneship? Go and see a lawyer to sort out you will.
Gays & Lesbo's is a convenient lazy form of life.

No resposiblilty until recently when all of a sudden they want to rear children.
Sod you it's hard enough for a child in todays world without gays & dykes coming into the equation as parental type role models in today's mixed up society
