    You got that right, Les.

    It cost over $200,000 to build that statue in 2004. That could have fed and clothed quite a lot of people.

    That church is also new IIRC? Or they added on can't remember. The one thing that comes to mind and my memory when they was building all that, church and statue, was... didn't know the lord paid so well!

    Breaking news:


    The federal government has decided to pay for the statue's repair and renovation. But, some small minor modifications will be made.

    I think this time it should be built WITHOUT the lightning rod in the middle of it,so this will be the last time this church can ask for donations to rebuild it.

    Also,this opens the age old debate for biblical instant replay..

    It was made of a steel frame wrapped in styrofoam coated with fiberglass. So basically it was two lightning rods surrounds by flammable material. Sure enough, lightning hit it. Jesus was struck down by an act of science.
