Heh. That's the most amusing read I've had in a while. I look forward to the responses...

I am pleased that people get some entertainment from this. Personally I found it nearly as boring as Peter Sellick's 'Liturgy of the Church' article.

It was very funny but it did make the serious point that Christ was considered a 'do-gooder' and a 'chardonnay socialist' (or is that 'water-into-chardonnay socialist'?) for his time and authorities in Judaea turned popular opinion against him. And the fact that he associated with prostitutes and tax collectors made him a pariah with the holier-than-though religious establishment. A lesson still relevant today.

Interesting take on recent events. We haven't learned much in 2000 years, have we?

So David Hicks is Jesus is he?

This article typifies what is so wrong with the left. First, they can't tell a joke.

Second, they find moral relativism in everything, seemingly without thinking about whether the parallels they draw are even valid. Comparing the treatment of Islamic fascist David Hicks, who went to fight with a group that glories in the deliberate slaughter of people who don't share their religion, to the treatment of Jesus Christ is completely and utterly bogus.

Actually, this article is staggeringly funny, but not in the way the author intended.
