Jesus Hernandez, I mean. The guy who delivers pizza. He’s coming here in less than 30 minutes with my Domino’s.

Uniball, this forum is for minor debates and polls. Could you _please_ post threads like these in MPSIMS. I’m moving this one now.

Thank you.

Do you think you could have the real jesus in a fight? I think I could as long as he didn’t do all those miracle things he was supposed to be able to do. He looks quite skinny and weak. Who’s your money on and what are the odds?

Wouldn’t it be funny if it turned out that he was quite, well, dim, too. Bit on the slow side, you know, a 20 watt light bulb:D

Why do you think he did the Sermon on the Mount, instead of the Sermon in a Ravine? You betcha…he wanted to look taller. Impress the babes.

Probably wore elevator sandals, too.

I suppose the situation arising from getting where you are because of your father despite your own inadequacies is quite pertinent at the moment;)

You are all going to hell.

Could one of you hold the door for me on my way in?

My favortive thought of Jesus - I forget who said it - was what if he performed the miracles like a magic act?  
“I have one fish . . . I have two fish! Ta-daa!”  
Of course Mary Magdelene would be standing next to him doing flourishes with her hands.

{b]Crunchy\*\*, that is fucking great! I’m now picturing Jesus on the cross wearing a top hat and tails.

Maybe the whole crucifixion thing was a Houdini stunt gone wrong?

What are you talking about? He got out of the tomb, didn’t he? Rather Houdini-esque in my book.

Yeah, well. They told you 30 minutes but he could turn out to be about as prompt as that other Jesus guy. So, you must know by now- did he show up? Did he turn the Pepsi into wine? How’s the pizza? We must know.

Pizza was fine. I ordered a Seven-Up, so if it tasted like wine, I would know.

Yeah, Guin, I can see it now…

Jesus: No, you guys! It’s the _crust_ that is the flesh of my flesh! Not the pepperoni! And you dip it in the wine, _not_ the marinara! Man! What’s a Messiah got to do to get good help these days?

He took the bread, gave it to his disciples and said, "Take this and eat it. This is my body, with a ring of mozzarella in the crust, which I have given up for you. Scarf this in memory of me.

Actually, Michael Moorcock wrote a book called “Behold the Man” in which this was precisely the case. A guy used a time machine to go back and witness the crucifixion/resurrection only to find that the real Jesus was a drooling idiot and Mary was a wanton harlot. It got weirder from there.
