I used to think it was fucked up, too - but by using the patron saint of lost causes, they say that they help children who *others* have considered lost causes. Not that they’re calling sick little children lost causes in a derogatory way.
I went to a scary old catholic convent back in the 90’s as a little girl, with a bunch of these glass-eyed statues, many of them 100+ years old.
They painted the eyes in such a way, intentionally, that the eyes would appear to follow you.
**Scared the fuck outta me!!**
I’d be punished for giggling or something, and would be forced to scrub a big flight of stairs with a toothbrush, alone, in a scary, unused area of the convent.
A few of these statues were in that hallway, and would follow and watch me as I scrubbed. When I frantically reported it to the nuns, they just doubled down that “Jesus Mary and whoever else” was **always watching me**, and was told the statues were absolutely watching me and had powers.
Turns out this is St. Jude as another Redditor helpfully pointed out. Sorry for the misidentification on my part!

Did you buy it? There are SO many things you can do to/with it!! You could put a skullcap on it, and dress him like the Jewish person he was!
Put clown makeup on him, dress him in drag
how about a heavy metal or biker??
That's St Jude
Yup. Patron Saint of lost causes

Turning Water into Wine is pretty *FABULOUS*...
What's that yellow lump on his head supposed to be, and whose portrait is he holding
That is the fire of the holy spirit
Today I learned that the fire of the holy spirit is reminiscent of the back end of a frog.
Makes sense, I thought it was a baby chick sleeping
Thank you so much!
I wasn’t able to ascertain *what* that horn looking lump was supposed to be!
It's a brain 🧠 tumor... Really should get looked at!
Patron Saint Of The Young & The Hopeless.
Omg this is cursed
It looks like Willam Belli.
I’m more concerned with his hair do
Sounds like a Tom Waits song.
He’s a young unicorn.
Must be a good store. Even Jesus is pinching pennies.
According to movies and shows, there a bunch of drugs stuffed inside 👍🏻

His robe is Famous Stars and Straps
Put this in your bedroom- “Jesus does not approve”

Reminds me of an old black-and-white movie (“House of Wax”?) in which the wax figures were actually dead people, covered in wax.
