: So you may or may not know but the National Catholic Reporter, an small weekly newspaper, was running a competition to design a Jesus for the Year 2000, or JC2K. Apparently they received over 1500 entries. As far as I know, no Buddy Jesus image was given though. Well, I bring this up now, other than the obvious Catholism WOW! relationship is the NCR decided their winner today, a Black Jesus no less. Influence of Rufus, or is God once again working in the most mysterious ways as I haven't heard a single shread of protest over this, while we all know about the Dogma debacle.
