Religious statue is mocked for ‘looking like something from Minecraft’

A 100-foot statue of Jude the Apostle has been unveiled in Esperanza, Puebla State, Mexico, but has faced mockery for its design, which some compare to video game aesthetics. The statue features the saint's traditional green and white attire, with plans to add a wooden staff. Construction began in 2024 but was delayed due to weather and ecological concerns, and it was inaugurated last week. Local authorities hope it will attract pilgrims during Saint Jude Thaddeus's feast day celebrations. The backlash parallels a previous controversy in Seville regarding the restoration of a Virgin Mary statue, which led to protests and adjustments after criticism of its altered appearance.
