I do appreciate the constructive feedback about how to block avatars so I don't see this image as well as the explaination of intent. I know the intent was not intentional, but it still is offensive. I was offended at the Michael Jordon Black Jesus references too by the way....I never said anything then...but to up the ante and throw a crown of thorns on it was a bit too much for me....especially if someone is suggesting making a profit by it by selling t-shirts too.
I don't expect anyone to neccessarily agree with me, I was expecting a more respectful response...not for my sake, for I know how some of you feel about me now...but for the name of Jesus itself.

I think you are entitled to your opinion, however you did come here guns blazing demanding that the entire world be changed just for you, without even thinking about the context in which this joke was made. As a Christian, I don't think this joke was made with the intent to offend those of us who believe in Jesus, nor was it made with the intent to offend or attack anyone's beliefs.
I do believe some people here got way out of hand in responding to you, and should have been a bit more respectful. But then again, we have to remember how serious things are not taken over the internet. I hope this is a learning moment for everyone and we can move on to talk about our team.
