why, yes, this is a statue of lenin, mickey mouse and jesus, walking hand in hand. do you find that odd or something?
c’mon with the captions, baby.
(thanks to rob craig for sending this via email, after he saw it on matthew paul turner’s blog)
and the winner is…
sorry, didn’t get to listing “contenders” this time around. there were a handful that made me chuckle or had a superior level of wit to them. but my two favorites, honestly, were:
Jeff Lilley’s
…each with a kingdom vision.
and
adam mclane’s
This statue is bestowed on megachurch pastors once they hit 10,000 in average weekly attendance. The motto on the bottom reads, “Rule with an iron fist, create a fantasy world, and teach them to walk like Jesus-ish.”
as you should assume, adam is slightly more than 100% ineligible, since, you know, we have a shared bank account and all.
that means: jeff lilly! you are a cham-peen! unfortunately, i didn’t actually offer a prize this time around (oops — forgot about that), so this wild and crazy level of congratulations constitutes the entirety of your prize. enjoy it!

“Now Mickey, remember what we told you. Do not talk to strangers, look both ways before you cross the street, and for my sake, don’t tell anyone who your parents are. They will never believe you.”
Speak all evil, hear all evil, see all evil.
Jesus, Lenin, and Mickey walked into a bar….
“uhh…hey, J-man, Lenin baby – is that Justin Bieber over there?! That’s Justin Bieber! I can’t believe I’m going to meet Justin Bieber…”
…each with a kingdom vision.
The Emergent Trinity: God the socialist, God the entertainer, and God the person of historical significance.
Socialism, capitalism and Grace
Ok, totally not a caption, but…why in the world is Jesus carrying a codex (i.e., a bound book)? It’s just painful to look at.
It IS a Small World after all…
“And he walks with me and he talks with me, and he tells me I am his own. And the joy we share as we tarry there, none other has ever known.”
Through lack of creativity Lenin was eternally separated from Jesus. But Walt Disney sent his first born animation to be a bridge so that they could live in fellowship together. Walt Disney loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life.
“You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.”
Of course Lenin started marching with the wrong foot.
“Won’t we all be surprised when we see who is in Heaven?”
“We’re off to see the wizard, the wonderful Wizard of Oz.”
One of these things is not like the others
One of these things just doesn’t belong
Can you tell which thing is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?
Star Wars fans are abuzz about a recently discovered early draft of Star Wars Episode V, which reveal that George Lucas initially had planned to introduce three additional companions to Han Solo, and that all four were to be frozen in Carbonite after being betrayed by Calrissian and handed over to Darth Vader. Unfortunately, Lucas was unable to reach an agreement with the Checka, Disney, and Zondervan, and the new characters never made it to the screen.
“For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind…the mouse.”
Didn’t see that one coming… O_o
historians were surprised to discover that Lenin’s answer to that oft-asked question “who would you like to have dinner with?” was Jesus, Mickey Mouse and any ol’ sculptor to record the moment for posterity
Euro Disney 2.0 – where Memento Park (Budapest, Hungary) and The Holy Land Experience (US) collide
“Oh…yeah…I get it…I thought it was something else.”
-the 7th grader who clearly does NOT get it.
Artist Epic Fail – it was supposed to be John Lennon!
In a press release earlier today: Zondervan, Youth Specialties, and the Youth Cartel unveil their latest logos symbolizing their partnership ….

Dang Adam – while I still like my caption better, I do love your incredibly concise analysis of the “problem” with mega-churches. :)
Jesus: you….you do this every time….you are ruining this vacation
Lenin: look….let’s just find the van…feet are killing me
Of mice, men and messiahs…
