gullible or sucker born every minute..maybe I am one of them; however, everyone has the right to see in something whatever the Spirit of God allows, i.e. if you are a believer . I think it depends on where your heart is. For me, it is a touching piece that made me stop and think of Jesus on the cross and the reason He died for US ALL. It is an incredible piece! I am not interested in whether or not it brings good luck because I don’t believe in luck. I believe in the blessings from God which are plentiful if you live your life for Him.

@Robert

That looks like Gumby after an unfortunate accident involving a bus.

Troy, shouldn’t that be, “There’s a suckerfish born every minute?”

What a great racket. Keep the good part of the fish and sell part of the head to the gullible. It has echos of P.T. Barnum and there’s a sucker born every minute. Note they *ONLY* give the $10 if you buy 6 of them. He should invest in a slicker web site, it lacks focus. If you didn’t see the Jesus after image try staring for around 30 seconds. (I’d buy one but I’d like a guarantee NOT TO SMELL!)

Why is it when other people see Jesus, I see some bizaaro alien creature from the Off-White Lagoon or something like that.

I left a link about this in a comment thread here a long long time ago. I’m guessing you didn’t learn about it from me though, since it was so long ago, you probably never saw it, but I knew you’d appreciate this silly case.

As a collector of skulls, this certainly amused me a lot. I’ve seen this kind of feature in other skulls too, but they don’t look like jesus at all.

[...] Crucifish – From the truth-is-weirder-than-fiction files (inspired by the recent Brian Slattery posts, perhaps?), a fish skull shaped like Jesus. No, really. [...]

Am I the only one to see Jesus with an enormous, feather headdress like a dragqueen at a Rio Carneval?

Can you imagine the situation?

“What sign can I do to show humanity my presence? AH HA! Fish skull!”

I too read his story about the meeting with Mickey Mantle and was almsot in tears

It just see,s to me the webmaster is trying to Pay It Forward by offering hrlp to others as the web dite says

Thwe site is not well done and that myabe the indication of his genuine-ness or maybe that is done on purpose to mislead us ?????

In any event It was a few minutes of my life that was at least enjoyable

If you are not seeing an apparition of Jesus, clearly the air in your room is too thick.

“But then, isn’t all art pareidolia?”

No…Jackson Pollack, for one. Music, for another.

Christ the Redeemer, maybe, but it doesn’t look like a crucifixion to me.

I am so happy that somebody already said it looks like a quintesson. If you see the jesus, it looks like he’s wearing a robe, so that’s biblically inaccurate. He was stripped before crucifixion.

looks like he’s screaming which is a surprisingly natural response to being nailed to a cross.
Also looks like he’s being bitten in the head by a LION just for good measure!

This man has an interesting story. Thanks for linking to his site. I was struck by the fact that he trusts “science” (his doctors) and since they kept telling him he would never walk, but then he did, it had to be a miracle. Perhaps because I have no religious beliefs whatsoever, it seems to me a crucifix in a fish skull is as legitimate as the ones churned out by a factory somewhere. Also, as an aside, I know his site looks hokey, but he obviously built it himself from scratch. Admirable.

Impressive, but nothing beats Angus, in my opinion:

Jesus must be broken.

Your Jesus has encountered an unexpected error. [Error type: crucifixion]

Would you like to reboot your Jesus?
