Christians are divided on their views of a controversial ad campaign in Australia showing  Jesus becoming an organ donor while nailed to the cross. Over 16,000 have signed an online petition in protest.

The ad, published online on Oct. 14 by the Dying to Live organ donor campaign, features two Roman soldiers speaking with Jesus about becoming an organ donor in Australia.

The exchange ends with Christ agreeing to help others by donating His organs. The guards explain some of the rules and procedures when it comes to registering to be an organ donor, including the need for a person's parents to be informed.
