A new religious statue in the town of Davidson, N.C., is unlike anything you might see in church. The statue depicts Jesus as a vagrant sleeping on a park bench. St. Alban's Episcopal Church installed the homeless Jesus statue on its property in the middle of an upscale neighborhood filled with well-kept townhomes.

Jesus is huddled under a blanket with his face and hands obscured; only the crucifixion wounds on his uncovered feet give him away. The reaction was immediate. Some loved it; some didn't.

"One woman from the neighborhood actually called police the first time she drove by," says David Boraks, editor of DavidsonNews.net. "She thought it was an actual homeless person."

That's right. Somebody called the cops on Jesus.

So this woman would have phoned police had she known it be an actual homeless person?

The fucking nerve.

Considering the attitude of some rich people, I wouldn't be surprised if one did think like that.

haha, I heard about this, I live 20 minutes from Davidson

I laughed pretty hard when I first heard about this because I was just there and I commented about it looking like it was Homeless Jesus due to the feet

I can't believe someone called the cops because of a homeless guy sleeping, people in NC are pretty pathetic sometimes not gonna lie.

Who the fuck calls the police because some hobo is sleeping on a bench?!
I don't exactly know a lot about religion, but if Jesus is suposed to be humble, then wouldn't this statue fit him better then all those flashy, huge, fancy statues?
