Jesus Christ Melts In The Hand
“This is one of the worst assaults on Christian sensibilities ever,” says Bill Donohue, head of the watchdog Catholic League, wich represnts 350,000 American Catholics.
“It’s not just the ugliness of the portrayal, but the timing - to choose Holy Week is astounding.”

I think a chocolate Jesus raises the awareness that our culture has missed the point on Easter. On the first Easter, no one was looking for chocolate bunnies or chocolate Easter eggs…they were looking for Jesus’ body!
Before his crucifixion, Jesus said that three days later he would rise from the dead, as proof that he was the Son of God. He didn’t say he would reincarnate (who would know?). He said he would come back to life three days after his crucifixion. Pretty specific proof, and publicly stated, several times.
The Roman government even posted a guard of soldiers at the tomb to prevent it. Yet, three days later, the guards fled, the tomb was empty (except for Jesus’ burial cloths). Faith in Jesus completely hinges on the resurrection.
Here’s a great summary regarding Jesus’ disciples and their perspective, due to that first Easter: http://www.everystudent.com/wires/apostles.html
