I can't imagine what is so funny about this, but everyone seems to think this was hilarious?? Not that I don't have a funny bone, but THIS would first seem embarassing.
I would think that the pastor, at least, would be mortified., [ assuming its the type of thong worn by mens club "dancers"(?) ] and what a horrific image of the church that mom might now have., those in charge of this 'store' should have checked everything; it seems I read in the Bible, that JESUS did not approve of selling things in the temple. He wasn't kidding.

This would have been a thong for a woman, not one worn by male dancers.......LOL!
Besides, I'm sure it was horrifying at the time, but now, all there is to do is laugh. It's after the fact.......Hahaha!
As for Jesus not approving of the sale of items in church, that's nowhere in the Bible. He was against people cheating others, and that's what was happening when He tipped over their tables, thus the reason why He accused them of making the church a den of thieves. They were stealing from the people by cheating them, not merely selling things. In addition, they weren't selling things in Sunday School. It was fake money the kids won and were 'spending'.
It appears from the first post that someone thought it was a chocolate rose wrapped in foil. It was an innocent oversight. The Dollar Store isn't known for going all out in being specific about their products anyway.....LOL!

Exactly! The money changers were cheating them. That's what it was about. They were coming to pray and worship with their offerings only to have their currency exchanged for exorbitant prices and fees.
As to the "rose" - how could you tell until you opened it? Could have fooled anyone. And yes, shocking at first, but funny - after the fact.
