Ohio’s I-75 Jesus

One of the best (and worst) part of my job is driving the interstates and back-roads of our great Ohio.  One of  my favorite landmarks is the giant statue of  Jesus (a.k.a. Touchdown Jesus) who guards I-75.  There is a facebook group dedicated to him (I’VE SEEN THE JESUS ON I-75), songs written about him (BIG BUTTER JESUS) and many posts of Jesus doing the YMCA or being the “H” in O.H.I.O.  So here’s my salute to a church that would rather build a giant wate-o-money Jesus with freakishly muscular forearms than spend the money helping the poor.
