New Jesus Calendar

I have this new calendar from the insurance agency, with Jesus on the front of it. He's holding a Shepard staff and he's standing next to, you guessed it, a bunch of sheep.

This sort of bothers me, because it's purely metaphorical. Jesus represents himself, the sheep represent us.

Jesus was never a Shepard. He was a carpenter. He probably got work from the Romans crafting the same crosses he was crucified on. That's what I'd like to see on the front of a calendar. A happy Jesus, content in his work, merrily nailed two large pieces of lumber together.
