People say a lot of things for Jesus. You'd think the guy was mute or something. Everyone's always putting words in his mouth. I take a grain of salt with everything I hear about Jesus--unless a beam of light rips through the clouds and a booming voice addresses me by name, I won't take anything I hear as being 100% true.
I mean, as reliable as 2000-year-old text that has been translated from Aramaic into Latin and then into English and tons of other languages, was written from a third person perspective 40 years after the actual events is...I still have trouble taking everything in the bible literally. Something tells me that, when Jesus said, "This bread and wine is my body and blood," he was speaking in metaphor. But that's just my interpretation.
Something also tells me that Jesus wasn't a white, blue-eyed, chiseled hunk. I mean--I'm sure, being god's son and all, he wasn't bad looking. But, for crying out loud, he lived in Israel. I don't know many Caucasians from Israel. In fact, I don't know many people from Israel at all...The image society has of Jesus was probably created sometime in the 14th century when artists had a very linear, close-minded approach to how they depicted their subjects. I just wish they had embelished his outfit more--I mean, tunics are so plain. This is the son of god we're talking about--where's the bling? Jesus needs some color. He could take some fashion tips from that Joseph guy.
I wonder who the third anti-christ is. Scholars believe the first two were Napoleon and Hitler. Some people say that George W. Bush is the third anti-christ. But, in the future, society has decided that Dubbya isn't evil. He's just stupid. As of 2027, no one knows who the third anti-christ is. My personal guess is Yoko Ono. Think about it........see what I mean?
You know, Hitler was an artist. After he didn't make it into art school, things sort of went down hill. I wish he'd gone to a psychiatrist instead of killing millions of people. Of course, the psychology of the day wasn't exactly the greatest. Had he gone to Freud, Freud probably would have said, "You dislike Jewish people because, subconciously, you want to fornicate with your mother." That was Freud's answer to everything. Oh, that Siggy. He had an oral fixation AND an oedipal complex. I wonder if his wife ever figured that out...
I forgot what I was talking about.
Have a good night, my pretties! I'll see you next time.
