200. There's So Much Wrong With This, I Don't Even Know Where To Begin
The thing that stuck out to me more than anything is the bottom right corner. Isn't the guy in the suit, ignoring everything going on around him whilst counting his money the very EMBODIMENT of the Republican Party?

Why is Jesus holding the Constitution? The artist SEEMS to be saying that the Judge is bad because he enforced the law that says you can't have religious symbols on public property. But where did he get that nonsense? Gee, from the VERY DOCUMENT Jesus is brandishing. And I think the little kid is trying to point that out to him, but Jesus ain't listenin'.

Why are the Founding Fathers standing there with Jesus? They didn't believe in him. They were Deists. I wish George Washington was holding a sign with his famous quote, "The government of the United States is in no way based upon the Christian religion."

Why does Jesus love the soldiers? He was rabidly anti-war. Maybe for a change, some of you Bible-thumpers should actually READ that book you brandish like a weapon. Kinda like the Health Care Bill, they admonish EVERYONE ELSE to read it, but have never actually done so themselves.

Why is the Confederate soldier crying? Because he had the audacity to secede from "God's Favorite Country"?

Why is Frederick Douglass in the background? The Bible says owning slaves is A-OK. And did he stand back there voluntarily, or did Jesus make him sit at the back of the bus?

What's that Asian guy doing at the bottom left corner? He's more than likely Hindu, and therefore doesn't even believe in Jesus, much less get a Hall Pass to Heaven.

Way in the back, fourth from the left.........is that Aunt Jemima? I didn't realize making a damn good pancake got you a Hall Pass to Heaven. Apparently Jesus is a pancake freak.

Why is Christa McAuliffe in that picture? NASA astronauts are all scientists and intellectuals. God hates BOTH of those (see the intellectual college professor, clutching the book by a scientist, down there in the "undesirable" pile).

Jesus apparently hates cell phone users (see the guy on the phone), but isn't he really just a pair of thick glasses away from being the Verizon guy?

Jesus apparently hates unwed mothers (as evidenced by the pregnant woman conspicuously NOT wearing a wedding ring). If He's so against sex out of wedlock, He's probably got some very serious "Daddy Issues." Good thing cheating wives, mothers of bastards, and filandering men weren't considered bound for damnation until AFTER He was born.
