I really must work out how to upload pictures.

For what it's worth, number four looks like the best bet. I assume that, because we have no idea what Jesus looked like, every culture simply pictures him more or less as their ideal of what a man should look like or as a visual expression of their beliefs about him.

Been watching a few documentaries about Jesus.

There seems to be consensus amongst historians about 3 things.

1. He existed.
2. He was baptized by John.
3. He was tried and crucified.

Pretty much everything else is a bit sketchy to say the least, although his significantly political side seems to have been downplayed.

4. He will save you from himself sending you to hell for eternal suffering because you didn't believe in his highly improbable story.

Got away lightly for a first offence.


Good news though - He is risen. Some legend that chap.
It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.

I had my hot cross bun toasted with butter and raspberry jam. Also then bagels with bacon medallions and cream cheese.

Oh and coffee and pure orange juice.
