About

God Has Given Us X is an exploitable image macro used in a series of memes in which users photoshop a graphic explaining why God gave people eyes, mouths, ears and hands, recaptioning or changing the original reasons to more comedic ones. The graphic was originally posted to Facebook in mid-2019 and became the subject of edits on Instagram and Tumblr in 2021, becoming further popularized in the following months.
