Mission Bay Community Church in San Francisco is using a Jesus Mii to advertise its Easter celebrations.
The poster shows a Mii version of Jesus next to an Easter bunny and reads, "Come and follow Mii."
Mission Bay is not your typical Church, though; they also like to play music and offer coffees to encourage visitors.
This, Mission Bay claims, means it is "absent of negative 'churchiness'".
We have all sorts of Mii designs on our Wii. One looks like a human Lassie.

Wii Crucifixion would work - use the wiimote to hammer home the nails.

I bet Jesus Mii is your typical white caucasian, long haired hippy, where as real Jesus definitely wouldn't have had long hair (as it was frowned upon for men), and obviously would've looked like someone of Middle Eastern lineage.
Ho hum, religion's a funny old thing Hmm. Why don't you try following the link to their site and have a look? |

@ Xiphos
So, when you see a brown jesus mii, with brown eyes and brown hair, the first thing that comes to your head is "he looks like a euopean with a tan", rather than the fact that, you know....he looks.....middle eastern/jewish? |

@ The Bodybuilder
Whoops... still, he really doesn't look Middle Eastern. There's even people who think Jesus was African... who knows eh? What with The Bible being such a reliable piece of literature @ Nithron He was still a "man of the people", so it's unlikely he was trying to set new fashion trends. Anyways... *skulks off from religious debate* |

He never did claim that though, it was added later when the Gospels were compiled. He claimed he was the son of god in the way all of mankind was. i.e. we were all children of god, it was metaphorical.
In my belief of course. I also doubt he had long hair. Not that his appearance is in any way important. |

Why? Wouldn't it have been obvious? It's like the morons who write imo after EVERYTHING! I only wrote it cause religion can be a touchy subject.

Wait, Jesus would have had short hair because long hair was "frowned upon" on men at the time?
I hear they weren't all that keen on claiming you were the son of god, either. Or hanging around with prostitutes. The guy was executed for being a wild-eyed, big-bottomed anarchist. It wouldn't surprise me if he didn't conform to popular grooming practices. A FUCK LOAD MORE TERRIBLE THAN BEING NAILED TO A CROSS AND SUFFOCATING UNDER YOUR OWN GRAVITY It's a close run thing, but I think I'd actually choose a few minutes of burning over a couple of days of suffocating to death with fuck off great nails through my arms and legs. And a lot of the people who got burned got made saints for it. You can't make them ALL the son of god. ;)

So you don't like wayn3h^! either? |

@ the bodybuilder. Why do you think wayn3h^! is a religious nut? I would class her/him as a non-religious apologist. In other words no matter the gender, there is a very sincere attempt to discover truth despite the obvious candy-filled lies (read child abuse of) religion. And this is not just opinion.
