Vote up the memes that make you laugh in spite of the irreverence.
Every year, typically around Easter, there's at least one viral Jesus meme that makes the rounds. Usually irreverent, these pictures take classic Christian images or concepts and turn them into clever socialĀ commentaries or ridiculous caricatures of religious ideologies. For example, there are memes of JesusĀ in raptor form, andĀ he preys on the lost sheep that the holy figureĀ typically shepherds. There are also memes that portray Jesus as the typical bro; he tells quintessentialĀ stories like an obnoxious millennial, making viewersĀ laugh and scoff.
Of course, some of these online viral images are incredibly offensive, but many people find them cathartic. These Jesus memes lend a bit of brevity to an occasionally strict religion. AndĀ whileĀ not always appropriate, they are almost always hilarious.
