What the fuck is an 'image' of Jesus supposed to look like?

I'm guessing that, contrary to popular belief, it doesn't look like Robin Gibb.

Someone needs to start a line of Judas Jeans, to put Jesus Jeans out of business!

Oh wait, they'll only come back in three days.

@2
But wouldn't Judas Jeans self-destruct the same day that Jesus Jeans declares bankruptcy? So then in three days, you end up with just a single company and no competition.

What about Jesu's (Hey-Soohs) jeans? I mean, can't latinos use their own name?

Jesus condoms would be more to the point. Ad slogan, "When someone says, Jesus, you know someone is gonna get fucked".

I can't wait for all mainstream religions to Scientology-like patent their "business methods" and "trade secrets".

Can you imagine if they'd tried this stunt with "Muhammad?" It would either be 24 hour security a la Rushdie or some seriously dead fashionistas.

It's hard to smirk with your throat slit.

Does that mean that Jesus is now a corporate "people"? IT'S THE SECOND COMING!

Given the absurdity of some of the patents the PTO has approved over the last decade, I'm not surprised this kind of idiocy has extended to the trademark side of the house.

Why doesn't a company try to trademark "USA" ? It's just a word, after all. If "Jesus" can be trademarked, "USA" should, too.

I like @11's angle. Who says the coming of Jesus has to be in human form? There's a great short story there...
