A three-panel comic. A woman with her hands clasped in prayer speaks toward a green void where a disembodied voice replies. Panel 1 — Woman: "Dear Jesus, when will you return?" Voice: "When it is on Earth as it is in Heaven." Panel 2 — Woman: "When's that?" Voice: "About 30 years." Panel 3 (the woman seen from behind) — Woman: "Really? Why then?" Voice: "I like the thermostat wayyyy up." The joke is that Jesus will return only once climate change has heated the Earth to his preferred (Heaven-like) warmth. Votey (aftercomic): a simple line-drawn face of Jesus says, "You think I showed up in the Middle East for FUN?" — implying he chose a hot region on purpose.
