6-story Jesus statue in Ohio struck by lightning
• APA six-story-tall statue of Jesus Christ with his arms raised along a highway was struck by lightning in a thunderstorm Monday night and burned to the ground, police said.
The "King of Kings" statue, one of southwest Ohio's most familiar landmarks, had stood since 2004 at the evangelical Solid Rock Church along Interstate 75 in Monroe, just north of Cincinnati.

If I'm not the one true religion above all others, then may I be struck down by,...oh,...um...never mind.
How fast can we get a 6 story high Obama bobblehead in there?
What is G.Bushs' alibi?
I have a hunch they will build it back bigger and more God resistant than ever!?!?
Pretty sure God doesn't like idolatry, wasn't that one of his commandments? You'd think a church would know that... LOL!
@Oyate- So youre saying the jews did this........
yeah but Noah built the arc. I mean ark.
Way to use common sense LoTek. Long distance high five!
Either that or a 6 story tall statue in a thunderstorm is a natural place for lightning to arc and make a ground connection.
God reminding us once again to quit bothering worshipping physical representations of His son while murdering women and children in far off lands.
It's an indicator He may be lifing His veil of protection from this land.
Past subjunctive prayers that "God Bless America" have turned into demands. I don't think He views agressive demands placed on Him by His subjects highly.
What about MC 900 Foot Jesus?
