Hey...I resemble that remark...
and I am the furthest from christianity I can be..

That's pretty cool... damn.
Making it over and over again and let the sea sweep it away... I guess it's like meditating. Well somewhere between meditation and being Sisyphus.

He is talented, and I love that his depictions of jesus are ones where jesus is hot.
Yeah, the cut body does help my mind to deal with the religious pushings of these sand sculptures.
So if you wanna go religious, make damn the people are beautiful. That's basic marketing.

It would be similar to some rabid Israeli coming to the beach everyday and carving out a Star of David. In your face-- it may be nourishing to their soul, but I don't want religion/politics at the beach.
It wouldn't matter to me. I could the appreciate the beauty in either. As long as it wasn't something like child pornography or a disaster or killing - something most reasonable people would deem offensive.
Sure looks like a depiction of killing to me and by torture to boot. This is not a manger scene or healing the sick. It is pure gore and not something that I think is fitting for young children to view.
The artistry however is superb.
