Yahweh shoots…He scores!

Nathan’s first Upward basketball practice was tonight.  We hadn’t been in the church gymnasium in a few months, and found that someone had made a delightful addition to the wall art during our hiatus:

I love our church.

  1. That is not God. It is Apollo; notice the winged feet. Or, are you saying God is on the juice (and hence the unnaturally well developed foot wings) to get that extra edge? I can see the NBA substance abuse panel now: “Alright God, take off those long socks!” To which he does but nobody can see the wings. Just another “God” perk I guess.

  2. I love how three really intelligent people can partake, with obvious delight, in a completely ridiculous conversation….

    Yes, it’s Hermes/Mercury with the winged feet – he’s the FTD guy…

  3. Maybe he’s Hermes AND Prometheus. He’s shooting a ball of fire. Maybe this guy stole Hermes’ sandals so he could swipe the fire from Zeus…? I’m so confused.

  4. Mrs. Chili: No, I think Merlin Olsen is the FTD guy. 🙂

    O’Mama: And if He misses He says “I damn it!” Heh.

    Could He miss? Can you suspend omnipotence? See, now we’re onto an important question.

    ‘seester: Just saying “Final Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse” is pretty funny itself.

    Cheryl: I’m wondering if the artist thought the wings and fire were necessary to convey “God” in the image. I think I’d have gotten it without them.

    In any case, I’m loving that it’s on our church’s gym wall. It’s an excellent piece of evidence that our church has healthy perspective.

  5. Oh I hate that I missed this blog entry back in November. I laughed so hard the last few minutes! I actually got here because I was searching on the word “religion” in your blog and saw this one. What a hoot! Obviously you church is just WAAAY COOOOOL!!
