'A new religious statue in the town of Davidson, N.C., is unlike anything you might see in church. The statue depicts Jesus as a vagrant sleeping on a park bench. St. Alban's Episcopal Church installed the homeless Jesus statue on its property in the middle of an upscale neighborhood filled with well-kept townhomes. Jesus is huddled under a blanket with his face and hands obscured; only the crucifixion wounds on his uncovered feet give him away. Some loved it; some didn't.'
Lots of people were crucified, it could be any one of them. That's why Jesus is always portrayed with a crown of thorns when showing his crucifixion wounds, so you can tell him apart from just another person with holes in his hands and feet.
