A two-panel comic. Main panel: a gleeful red-haired boy holds up a bottle and points at a close-up of a long-haired figure (implied to be Jesus) seen in profile on the right. The boy crows, 'HA! GOT YOU! YOU'RE DRINKING YOUR OWN BLOOD!' The figure spits out the drink with a 'PFFFF!' The caption beneath reads, 'Jesus no longer loves the little children.' The joke plays on the Christian communion idea that wine is the blood of Christ. Votey (a small black-and-white follow-up): a grinning person leans in and asks, 'HEY, YOU WANT A CRACKER?' and a voice off-panel replies, 'SURE!' — a setup for the same prank using communion wafers as the body of Christ.
