Modern art, unironically. Not in a disparaging "ugh modern art" (that movement is decades old btw, I think we're at post-contemporary now?) but as in art that's fitting the zeitgeist

Went through the trouble of getting up on the crosses in costume but didn't take off the glasses? Come on!
It’s trite, but it’s amazing how strongly American conservatives identify with Christianity when it is completely antithetical to their ideology. Like there’s no way a modern American conservative can honestly say they value personal sacrifice for the salvation of humanity.
"Jesus is King" seems to be their mantra. Jesus was good not because he did good, but because he's the avatar of authority
That sorta what I had been taught. God created the universe, therefore he gets to decide what's good and evil. Demanding his people commit a genocide? Good. Stripping Pharaoh of his free will to have him persecute his people more? Good. Because if God did it, it's inherently good.
No no no, you see it's the sacrifice of others
Nothing more American conservative than Sunday mass, ignoring the homeless person outside the brunch place you visit afterwards, and then capping it off by tipping the server 2.3 percent
Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are ordering
And one of them ran and took a big gulp cup, filled it with diet coke, and put in it a PLASTIC straw
, and gave him to drink.
For God so loved the Earth he begat his only son for a McGriddle and hashed browns.
Whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting borgar
It's a violation of consent to do your scene where the general public can see you
Cowards won't even nail their hands to the cross.
I mean...did they have to wear their glasses lmao?! There is just truly no sacrifice too small for these folks to refuse
They need to be able to see all the burgerpeople gawking at them gormlessly
Really couldn't say it better (really lol). Says so much about what they're doin up there, just delicious
Filipino Catholics: hold my beer.
Crucifixion Ruben is an outlier adn should not have been counted
They keep pulling this poor guy out of retirement to nail him to wood ever year
Ruben time to die on the cross again! 
Just thought: Jesus didn't have it so easy!

Punishment There were various methods of performing the execution. Usually, the condemned man, after being whipped, or “scourged,” dragged the crossbeam of his cross to the place of punishment, where the upright shaft was already fixed in the ground. Stripped of his clothing either then or earlier at his scourging, he was bound fast with outstretched arms to the crossbeam or nailed firmly to it through the wrists. The crossbeam was then raised high against the upright shaft and made fast to it about 9 to 12 feet (approximately 3 metres) from the ground. Next, the feet were tightly bound or nailed to the upright shaft. A ledge inserted about halfway up the upright shaft gave some support to the body; evidence for a similar ledge for the feet is rare and late. Over the criminal’s head was placed a notice stating his name and his crime. Death ultimately occurred through a combination of constrained blood circulation, organ failure, and asphyxiation as the body strained under its own weight. It could be hastened by shattering the legs (crurifragium) with an iron club, which prevented them from supporting the body’s weight and made inhalation more difficult, accelerating both asphyxiation and shock. Crucifixion was most frequently used to punish political or religious agitators, pirates, slaves, or those who had no civil rights. In 519 bce Darius I, king of Persia, crucified 3,000 political opponents in Babylon; in 88 bce Alexander Jannaeus, the Judaean king and high priest, crucified 800 Pharisaic opponents; and about 32 ce Pontius Pilate had Jesus of Nazareth put to death by crucifixion.

"USA" was the only context needed.
This might be the most American thing I have ever seen outside of manmade horrors beyond my comprehension. They even have a parking lot filled entirely with inefficient vehicles. Is that a 1970s lead guzzler behind the Second Christ of Texas?
Christ died for your Big Macs 
This is heretical.
Christians been doing this for millennia
Just usually not in the McDonald's parking lot
Progress!
What's heretical is the people grilling when there's a McDonalds right there
Just down the hill from the insane asylum from In The Mouth of Madness.
This looks like what the way in to work in my nightmares looks like
Tag yourself I'm grill jesus
Meanwhile in Amerikkka
