WEIRD JESUS STUFF

I'm not a religious person, nor do I care much for religiosity. In fact, I think it holds us back as a species. But that's neither here nor there. I would love to know what is going on in these images. I had one arm full of groceries and the other barely free to make these three shots as I walked home with the dinner ingredients the other day. I was somewhat spooked by the weird dolls. More spooked, in fact, by the devotion on the faces of the dolls' carriers. Thought I'd share them here. More soon.

One time I was taking a walk in Pittsburgh. Someone gave me a Saint Teresa bust out of their front yard. I carried the concrete statue with me to The Church Brew Works, a former Catholic church-turned-brew-pub. I sat the bust on the barwaited for some friends and drank some brews with them, and her.

Not really Jesus, but there were enough dudes there anyway.
