A model dressed as the Virgin Mary poses during a performance in Santiago. A prominent fashion designer has sparked outrage in Chile by dressing up models like the Virgin Mary — in some cases with ample, near-naked breasts. The Roman Catholic Church condemned Ricardo Oyarzun’s plans for a show featuring the models.
Better than a cheese sandwich.












When she goes up for auction, let me know.
J/P=?
History shows that Mary was about 13 years old when she became pregnant with Jesus. That girl in the photo doesn’t look 13.
Mmmm the breasts to feed the son of god… Santa Madonna!
Pretty obvious there is no caring about the sensitivities of Catholics here.
#23–RSweeney==what kind of group think would make a better response?
REQUEST: Print this story out and take it to your local shaman this Sunday. Next Monday, bring us back the comments.
What do we have here, 22 responses in a narrow range of something other than “Oh Dear God, blah, blah, blah” and 320Million people with better things to do. Strikes me as about right.
If I were God, I’d definitely hit that…..
#21 Pretty good one.
#25 Again, I’ll fully side with you when I see the same graphical treatment given to mohammed. Otherwise, it’s just hypocrisy and prey on the tolerant.
#27–Pedro==just how would that work? Never a single article/joke/comment about any one issue=====all variations within the type have to be addressed every time any one of them is addressed?
I don’t think you understand what “being practical” means.
Plus especially re Muslims, they are still such a minority, to give them equal time would be too much credit.
Don’t you think the Muslim’s get their share of abuse on the Israeli threads?
Don’t be so simple minded.
#28 said: “Plus especially re Muslims, they are still such a minority…”
I’m sure our European fellas would relate to that.
If she’d looked _that_ hot, the “virgin” story would be even less believable.
#30 Oh no, she was both that hot & a virgin. The story goes that she was so hot that she just enjoyed being a teaser. God saw that and made her pregnant as punishment.
(I can’t believe I came up with that)
#31 Inspired genius. I acknowledge the Buddha within.
How many well-breasted babes are still virgins?
FAKE!
Since no one actually knows what she looked like (assuming she was real) why do the church and others get their panties in a bunch every time her “image” is misappropriated or appears on cheese sandwiches, lava lamps, tree bark, etc? What is her supposed image based on? A painting or famous sculpture made in the past? Certainly not actual photographic evidence. I’m sure that if she had been a real person, she probably would bear a strong resemblance to those fighting in and around the Middle East area today and would be totally unrecognizable to her devoted followers.
He should have dressed her up as Gaea. I’m sure that crowd would have be much more understanding.
#24: I’m Catholic. Personally, I have no objections. No one ever said the Blessed Mother was or had to be ugly.
In most “primitive” cultures, the goddess or mother of god always is well endowed – shows her fitness for birthin’ and raisin’ healthy babies.
“I’m going to be doing “Our Father’s” for a week straight after my next confession.”
Dude, you’re being abused. Get a lawyer. Seriously, you don’t have to be doing any fathers.
#34 Cool. You seem to be amongt the brave ones. Now, go to the same with Mohammed. He meets the same criteria you discribed. Go ahead. Let me know how that goes.
