Jesus burns in ohio

We had just driven by this ungodly large statue of Jesus on our way home from vacation Sunday (along I-75), and apparently the very next day it was destroyed by fire after being struck by lightning (I swear I had nothing to do with it). While I think it's an odd looking thing myself, what I found especially interesting was that the people there are actually excited about the publicity the fire has generated. And they are absolutely planning on replacing it. I would think the church might want to be known more for being "Christ-like," rather than for their Christ "likeness"... but maybe that's just me.
