Why Not The Best in Bad Taste?



Is it just another example of consumerism to the max, or is it religious art? Maybe even an opportunity for evangelization?

Thanks to the folks at funeraldepot, you can be buried in your choice of Last-Supper-motif caskets. You even get to pick whether your Jesus is European or African.

You can also go to your eternal reward under the patronage of La Guadalupana or the Virgen de la Caridad.

Of course there are bad taste possibilities here far beyond the two I've presented here, such as one for NASCAR fans ("the race is over" -- no doubt intended as a reference to the words of St. Paul) and this hommage to The Big Apple, complete with Twin Towers.

Thanks to Eric Ewanco for the link.

What? Who?

On life and living in communion with the Catholic Church.
