The giant Jesus statue previously discussed here has been immortalized in song by the legendary Heywood Banks.

People who wear their wristwatches on the inside part of the wrist are not to be trusted.

He is so right about the reaction. It happens every time. We never call it "Butter Jesus", though. It's "Volleyball Jesus," thank you very much.

Now we just need a song for giant cross-bearing lady liberty!

My parents call it Butter Jesus or Melting Butter Jesus. It's a local legend!

I've heard it called Melting Jesus and Touchdown Jesus. My brother drove by it once, before they put the hands on, so he sometimes calls it No Hands Jesus. But I, like brett, have always called it Quicksand Jesus.

Church leaders believe it is the World's Largest Christ (or at least the W.L. half-buried Messiah) and have submitted it for consideration for a Guinness World Record. Wow, talk about a lack of research. World's largest half-buried Jesus statue, maybe, but there's not a great deal of competition there, I should think.

We never call it "Butter Jesus", though. It's "Volleyball Jesus," thank you very much. I always liked the term "Touchdown Jesus." "volleyball Jesus" works well, I suppose. /Drove by it on my way to/from Dayton yesterday. I still find it quite odd. //And creepy.

And a late-breaking update: It's fun to stay at the Big Butter Jesus!

While I'm not particularly interested in the jesus statute (or the Jesus, in general) - I'm diggin' this RoadSideAmerica site. I've long wondered about the details behind the "Giant Baby with Tractor" I see every time I leave Phoenix to come back home to LA. Now I have an answer. So, ya know.. thanx for that.

I'd call it Flight Deck Jesus. Flash Earth lets you zoom in pretty close.

I call it Drowning Jesus (or Jesus going down for the third time), since he's chest deep in a lake. Seriously, at night, you can almost hear him crying out "Why have you forsaken me?". The thing is incredibly creepy.

People who wear their wristwatches on the inside part of the wrist are not to be trusted. And it's on the right hand at that.

Amazing -- nobody linked to this Solid Rock Jeebus fansite, here or in that other post. Hope you like photoshops.
