A few months back, Conan O'Brien, talk show host, displayed these figurines.

BTW, on another thread someone asks if Jesus was/is a white American- my take on it is that the only thing American about this particular effort is that if someone perceives a market for ANYTHING, someone will provide it.

Wouldn't it have been much more 'fun' if Jesus were depicted as a 12-year-old boy, and marketed that way? Remember in the Bible when Jesus at the age of 12 discoursed with and confounded the city fathers- well, maybe while skating home he played soccer, golf, basketball, baseball, etc.
