It’s a perfect metaphor for the performative Christianity they love: all show, no effort
He’s wearing a suit for fuck sakes.
You’re telling me they didn’t even nail him to it after?
We’re nailing him to it figuratively at least
A cross without wheels is poor people shit.
Probably made of the lightest material possible. That dude is hardly struggling.
American style Christianity described in one image.
Holy shit this is the most accurate metaphorical depiction of modern Christians I’ve ever seen.
Fun fact there’s a guy in my area who drags around a cross made of recycled oak pieces (bits of old furniture cut and glued together) every Easter. Apparently he made it out of raw spite about performative and hypocritical Christians, he is mildly insane and was not even vaguely phased by my crazed neo pagan schtick so take of that as you will.
Welp, that gif is retired now.
Arrived from the heavens, died for our sins, but in the third season he was resurrected.
Jesus after seeing this pic:
And that even though people kept telling him: Jesus, take the wheel!
Nowhere in the bible is explicitly written, that Jesus didn’t think of that. Might have had wheels for all we know. Maybe he just skipped gym and was weak af. Or had the wrong wheels for the terrain ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Maybe he just thought, “Christ, I could really do with some wheels” the whole time
Skipped the gym? Not the Christ depicted in so many churches where he looks like an Olympic gymnast, 6 pack and all.
9 pack, he had an extra ab, like Batman.
why didn’t Jesus think of that? Was he stupid?
Jesus would have survived crucifixion if he’d tried harder
On the other hand, I think he nailed it.
The thought must’ve crossed his mind, just to fuck with the mortals.
What are you talking about, he did survive it, though he slept for 3 days before going to say bye to his friends then goy the fuck out of there before the sick fucks tried again. He then went to Scandinavia where he taught the people to mostly be cool, but, worried about another backlash, told them that maybe one day they can raid and pillage every now and then as a treat.
As God, Jesus wouldn’t have died unless he wanted to. Jesus committed suicide by Roman(s).
You are correct if one were to assume the contents of the bible are an accurate representation of history; it’s mentioned several times during the passion. Effectively Jesus, being God, could have just noped out or gone Old Testament or whatever. He specifically talked about that in the garden of Gethsemane basically saying he knows what’s going to happen and is doing so voluntarily.
They didn’t have the wheel in the bronze age 🙃
If they’re too lazy to even perform during their performative gestures, what’s the fucking point?!
They should just send a guy out there wearing a life size replica of Charlie Kirks head like a theme park mascot yelling “OBEY” followed by whatever they want their cult to do/feel/etc.
It’s practically a motto: “Optics, not substance.”
If Jesus was so smart, why didn’t he think of this? Would have saved him a ton of work.
Clearly not a great carpenter.
Work smart not hard. Probably didnt even need to die for ‘everyones’ sins. Considering most people aren’t Christian. The ROI just isnt there.
If Jesus had put that gold, frankincense, and myrth into a Roth IRA and just sat on it. Well, the church wouldn’t need an offering plate, Ill tell you that much.
He was just too fucking swole to bother
Yup. American Evangelism summed up in one picture.
It’s rather poignant I think.
After all the guy they are honouring only ever paid lip service to the religion. So they should to.
Back on the Saturday before Easter I was driving down a highway when I saw police blocking the right lane. There was a church group walking along the road dragging a cross. I laughed my ass off when I noticed it had wheels. I only got a screen cap from a dashcam video.
Where I grew up there were three churches on the island.
An episcopal church at one end, a Methodist church in the middle and a catholic at the other end.
The episcopal priest would lug the cross to the Methodist church, the Methodist priest would take it over and lug it to the Catholic Church, then the Catholic priest would lug it up into the church and the theee priests would do a communal church service ahead of Easter.
No wheels.
Community.
Everyone welcome.
This was the church community I grew up in, I’m an atheist now because of what the rest of the churches in the world showed me.

Turns out following the teachings of Jesus Christ and being a good person are too difficult for most Christians.
🎶I’m here to remind you of the wheels you use on that cross you bear, It’s not fair!🎶
Look at me! Look at me! I’m doing the thing! Look at me!
Vanity will get you sent to hell bro. Hope you know.
Hell isn’t real.
But guillotines are.As are crosses.
bloodlust
I mean. I don’t hope dude is guillotined. Unless he did some high treason.
Have you not been paying attention? All they know is high treason
