If Jesus was so smart, why didn’t he think of this? Would have saved him a ton of work.

Back on the Saturday before Easter I was driving down a highway when I saw police blocking the right lane. There was a church group walking along the road dragging a cross. I laughed my ass off when I noticed it had wheels. I only got a screen cap from a dashcam video.

Where I grew up there were three churches on the island.

An episcopal church at one end, a Methodist church in the middle and a catholic at the other end.

The episcopal priest would lug the cross to the Methodist church, the Methodist priest would take it over and lug it to the Catholic Church, then the Catholic priest would lug it up into the church and the theee priests would do a communal church service ahead of Easter.

No wheels.

Community.

Everyone welcome.

This was the church community I grew up in, I’m an atheist now because of what the rest of the churches in the world showed me.

🎶I'm here to remind you of the wheels you use on that cross you bear, It's not fair!🎶

No crown of thorns either. Amateur.

Thorns bite into my skin. And don't get me started on sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating... and it gets everywhere!

Should he not be nailed to it?

If only we could have people performatively wheel around more practical execution devices, like the evergreen guillotine.

Holy shit that's a great band name. Do not steal.

One of the local churches near me would give everyone a pvc pipe cross lol

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

At Easter they give everyone a palm cross, then if you still have it by Christmas, you're supposed to burn it, but no one ever does still have it by Christmas, so they give you a new one. Then they burn that one.

This is supposed to signify something, but I don't think anyone knows what.

I think you're confusing it with Ash Wednesday, the first day of lent?

You can’t cross a bear with wheels.
