Mary, I know it’s hard to let go, originally uploaded by mind on fire.

But little Jesus died in that accident with the silver smelter.

I took these pictures on the grounds of the Crystal Cathedral in Orange. They are just screaming for caption. You can see the fear in Joseph’s face:

I challenge you–go forth and caption!

    Damn it Mary, I know he’s not my biological son but to make Jesus silver just to prove a point, is just mean!

    “You did what? With who? Can you even do that? That is just wrong.”

    Or, in the case that it is Jesus and not Mary Joseph is talking to (I just noticed the silver):

    “Hey, you. Don’t go pulling rank on me. God might be your biological father, but I did all the hard work raising you.”

    Queen Midasary rethinks her decision to have her touch turn everything she touches to stainless steel…

    Joseph: Behold! An inn! A great big, shiny, glass, cement, … That’s not an inn, is it?

    also, Cobwebs: I have to give you props for that one. For a computer system that killed off most of mankind, it’s not real smart is it?

    “Ummmm uhhhhhh this isn’t what it looks like son…the donkey and I were just ummm…damn…just don’t tell mom about this, ok?!”

    Cobwebs! Because Terminator + Jesus = Fun. (and explains the metal child.) Cobwebs will get to choose a title from a small stack of secondhand books. Congrats!

    Thanks to everyone who contributed. I got a great laugh out of your captions. Look forward to another contest soon!
