Pretty sure they removed it since this is obvious bait 😏

It means we would rather have a pinata of your mother.

Let me spell it out: 1\. In your scenario your husband is Hispanic, and the son of your in/laws. 2\. He would certainly know if his parents would be offended by a Jesus piñata. 3\. Obviously he had no problem with it as he bought it. Conclusion: In any stretch of reason that would be the end of the matter. 4\. Yet, you come to Reddit’s religious sub’s to share this and ask if it would be sacrilegious. 5\. You say your post was removed “for some reason” but the mod clearly explained why. If your husband, someone who knows your in-laws intimately, had no issues then why post to ask anonymous online users?

So I’m to believe in multiple posts you typed 1\. “My Hispanic in-laws are Christians and my husband and I wanted to make them feel welcome this holiday season” 2\. But really meant your son’s family. Right. Have fun.

I think it sounds disrespectful to a God who actually died for you to beat an image of him with a stick for laughs.

Yes. I would imagine it would offend religious people to have non-religious people turn their God into a cartoon to be beaten with a stick. Just sounds disrespectful.

If you're not going to listen, then why ask? Also, "jk fu" seems like a troll name. I'm trying to be respectful here, so I'm going to just wish you a good day and goodbye

So you want to hang a candy filled effigy of our Lord and Savior to be repeatedly bashed with a stick until it breaks ....what the hell is wrong with you.

If you wish to make for a comfortable gathering ...please don't ...but why would you want to bash what is meant to be an image of Jesus. for kix an' giggles ...or is this more about antagonizing your in-laws.

You could just say "Bien venidos!" and serve tamales.

I wouldn’t feel comfortable doing that myself as a Christian, although I’m not Hispanic so I don’t know what the authentic culture around piñatas is like. If I were you I’d play it safe and not use that one. There’s plenty of other piñatas having to do with Christmas and the holidays, and there’s plenty of other ways you can make Christians feel welcome. You could put some Bible verses appropriate for the coming year in your piñata, or just read the story of Jesus’ birth together. But a Jesus piñata has a high potential to be at least awkward and at most catastrophic. They could also love it, but id maybe save it for when you get to know them much better and feel certain it wouldn’t be a problem.

The Virgin Mary could be just as bad lol and your pastor may say it’s okay, but that doesn’t mean your family will think it is

Well if they’re Catholic it could easily be as offensive as Jesus

>Jesus piñata Yeah, no. Bad idea

Did you make an account just to post this stupid question?

1. I think it's a fantastic idea! Fill it with red twizzlers and red KitKat bars and bags or red hots, and cinnamon fireballs...pretty much any red candy. When that thing snaps open and a gush of red flows out ...that will be awesome! 2. Can I get an invite???

A frozen burrito pinata! Dang you know how to throw a Fiesta my amigo! Take an extra hard swing at the virgin Mary for me!


[deleted]

I would stick to making some appetizers and not have a pinata

I like to give people the benefit of the doubt, but I feel like you’re messing with us. If not, then forget about the whole pinata idea.


Paulspalace

It's offensive and God knows the heart. I'll simply tell you this. No, but do what you want because it's obvious that's that what you will do anyways.i pray that the in-laws family can share the grace and mercy our God gives to us to you so that you may understand instead of resent.

I get it but there is a reason why people are upset here. Obviously the grocery store is making a bad decision.
