I. Was Jesus a gigolo? Luke 8:1-3
When He was thirty-three, it was a very good year. A year when
women of substance provided for Him and His followers.
II. Was Jesus an elitist? Matthew 13:10-13; Luke 8:10
No full disclosure here to the common flock. Maybe that is why
the faithful are called sheep. In Church Latin: "Fidem Scit."
III. Was Jesus influenced by evil spirits? Mark 5:12-13
Like Father, like Son. Satan manipulated Yahweh into messing
Job up. And here Jesus takes the suggestion of unclean spirits.
Perhaps, even evil spirits have good ideas once in a while?
IV. Was Jesus grandstanding? John 11:4-42
Jesus puts a family through profound grief, not to mention
His dying friend Lazarus calling for Jesus. Why? Just to
show off a new stunt--or what is politely called a miracle?
There is another parlor trick in Matthew 17:27. "Hoc est
corpus." Or is that "hocus pocus"?
V. Was Jesus into kinky sex and homosexuality?
Luke 7:44-47; Mark 14:51-52
Jesus tells Peter that He is into using a woman's tears to
wash feet, having the woman to dry the man's feet with her
hair, and enjoying the woman's constant kissing of the feet.
Can you say "fetish"?
And under what circumstances would a group of mature
men have a certain naked young man among them in a
public park? Tongues surely would have wagged if
Osama bin Laden had had a naked young man in
his bedroom.
VI. Was Jesus a con-artist? Mark 1:9
In Christendum, the purpose of baptism is to wash away
Original Sin. Roman Catholics believe that the Virgin Mary
was born without Original Sin. When did Jesus get Original
Sin? Was John the Baptist just a shill for con-godman Jesus?
VII. Was Jesus insane? Mark 3:20-21
At this point, Jesus seems to have gone over the edge. His
friends and family want to take Him into protective custody.
If your next door neighbor or a co-worker were acting like
Jesus is, wouldn't you want to do the same? Can you
say "going Pentecostal"?
Read the word of God, I pray you, as I have cited it for you
in the Holey Bible www.kingjamesbibleonline.org But if you
gerrymander the verses, as many of your clergy do, you best
eat the Jesus Fish Flesh with a side of honeycomb.
Let your own reading be your tutor whose end is to hold, as
it were, the mirror up to the paracosm of religion to show a
scam that is as old as the pyramids.
