Jesus sandals send Danes into frenzy!
I just thought this was funny.
A Danish supermarket chain decided Wednesday to remove plastic sandals with images of Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary on them from store shelves amid heavy criticism from religious groups.The sandals, available in children's and adult sizes, featured drawings of Jesus Christ or the Virgin Mary on the upper sole with light blue or pink backgrounds...
Hours after the flip-flops went on sale Monday at $6.25, a group of protesters destroyed several pairs at a Kvickly in Aarhus, 124 miles northwest of the capital, Copenhagen. The company didn't file a police complaint.
Went to check and see if any enterprising Danes put them up for sale on eBay. I wonder what the protestors would have to say about these.
