A quick note of thanks to the UCF chapter of the Campus Freethought Alliance for the pleasant time in Florida (especially pleasant now that I’ve come home to the prospect of several inches of snow today). We did get a nice photo of our last supper together: pizza and beer, of course.

Nice shot.
For some reason that picture reminds me of a painting….. :)
I bet Jesus never got anything as interesting as a pizza for his last supper.
PZ amongst the younglings….:-)
Who, PZ? I don’t know any PZ.
Who, PZ? I don’t know any PZ.
Who, PZ? I don’t know any PZ.
Reminds me of this classic:
Last Supper, with dogs, by Ron Burns
Uh-oh. PZ/Jesus looks pissed.
That guy really pulled off Judas.
Or this one posted on this blog before.
You forgot to spill the salt.
My god, that Tom Hanks movie was right! She is a woman! And there’s another one! This goes deeper than we thought! Exclamation!
Eyeoffaith, if you ever attend a traditional seder prepared by a good cook, you’ll never call pizza “interesting” again.
I’m sure that Jesus–had he ever existed–would have enjoyed every bite. Except maybe the horseradish.
Eyeoffaith @ #3:
Bread and wine? We had calamari and beer!

PS: I was the one that made the offhand, smartass comment that led to this photo: “You know, for ironic effect, we should all be sitting on one side of the table.”
That’s classic. Wish we’d thought of that at the FFRF meet last year!
I think this should start a tradition at all future meetups. If we keep it going long enough, we might be able to get the more gullible fundies to belive PZed is Jeebus! =)
I’m disappointed that you didn’t do Big Arms. You are always supposed to do Big Arms in any Last Supper recreation.
OMG that’s too funny!
You totally need to print it to a postcard and send it to Ken Ham for Solstice.
Maybe include a chocolate covered Eucharist for good measure.
Aw, this was after my hubbie and I left. I suppose we’d just have ruined the photo though with our numbers though. I had a blast and wish I could enjoy a conversation with PZ over a beer once a week (well, a beer for me, a girly margarita for him).
A rational repast that began with the best of discussion and ended without a prayer. It’s a wonder one of the rosary beaders didn’t come in and say grace so you could be able to eat without a worry of divine intervention to poison the godless heathen.
I did not realize that PZ was such a huge fan of the movie M*A*S*H.
Awesome.
I always knew you were some sort of savior.
Re Zeekster @18:
Yeah Benjamin,
Why didn’t you think of this earlier before we all left?
This was a great time and made me wish I had chosen the professorship route. Watching all those young minds sparkling with ideas is awesome.
ha! That is one awesome picture. Beer and pizza: probably what Jesus really wanted.
RBDC @ #8. Way to bring that one back. Classic. Somehow I don’t think this new pic is going to cause quite as much heat as that one did though.
Ack! I left too early and missed the photo shoot as well!
Anyway, thanks again PZ for stopping here in Orlando.
So who dipped their bread in the bowl with you? Obviously Scooter called Peter up there.
Just in case anyone wants to compare PZ’s last supper to the other last supper, here it is.
PZed,
Unless it was just poor lighting- you left out Rufus, the 13th apostle.
Did anyone approach PZ in order to kiss him on the cheek?
I only count eleven in that painting.
The pictures from Saturday’s dinner aren’t nearly as dramatic, blame the random guy from the next table who took them… It was fun, though, thanks for the people from Rollins for organising the second talk and dealing with the local ‘drama’!
ps. Here’s another Last Supper interpretation (scroll down), from the Swedish ’90s exhibition Ecce Homo
Heh heh… he said “full service”. No wonder everybody left happy!
LOL! The reflection of the flash was particularly helpful.
The Zombie Last supper?

@33: Yeah, the hallo’ed coathanger.
Harmless implement for contrast.
Only 10 apostles? Oh, well.
Wouldn’t calamari fall into the list of things that are an abomination to eat??
Doubly delicious. ^_^
I’m disappointed because this happened right after I left.
Hah, but then again there are like a dozen people who share this same story.
Hahaha…
Oh, man that photo is awesome.
If only you would have thought of this earlier. I’m a photographer. I’m sure I could have improved the image quality just a tad….
Where’s the nimbus of light?
The Meme Last Supper
Brilliant!! You should make this your “seasons greetings” card.
Been there…

Done that…

I can has sacrilege? NOM NOM NOM
“look more closelier…”
Question: was anyone else from “here” (besides PZ) at the Saturday event?
The only thing missing is Mel Brooks holding pizza pan behind Professor Myers’ head!
That is awesome.
Yeah, I’ve definately seen this scene before … in a agalaxy far far away
*definitely* ..pardon my typo.
And @ #27 BobC
I belive this is the original, you intended to refer to.
Now all we need is someone to betray you to Bill Donohue for thirty silver pieces.
I find myself saying “Jesus Christ” to the State Rep.’s comment…then giggling at the irony. :)
Are the empty chairs (not present in the painting) for conservative evangelists?
OMG!!!! That looks like a big bag of assholes with all of the good ones picked out.
Tell Us PeeZee, how did the wrasslin’ match to puck up the check come out?
Tell us, please….did you tossers have a “wafer” toss?
Hahahahah!
