People are aghast when I tell these jokes but I figure he has to have a sense of humor.
After all, look at the world today
Sam Kinnison - "Yeah, I'll come back.......just as soon as I can play the piano again! Pretty tough with these holes in my hands!!"
Yeah, Sammy had a lot of Jesus jokes. Saying how he knew he wasn't married. What wife would let him go to the big city with 12 of his "loser" friends for the weekend.

As a former preacher, I'm guessing there were very few Jesus jokes the man hadn't heard

Always wonder if Jesus didn't get the last laugh. Sam was perpetually drunk. He cleans himself up, quits the booze. And gets killed by a drunk driver

I'm just hoping the homosexual necrophiliacs didn't get to him afterwards. ![[raspberry]](http://storage.proboards.com/6870873/images/URfbnorGJoHZMsqWxsFb.gif) |

Well, there is zero archaeological evidence for his existence but then that would not be a surprise, he is mentioned by non biased accounts later on, but certainly it would appear that he was just another prophet of those times who were ten a penny and who's exploits were bigged up by a Pauline PR team. There was probably a prophet on every corner, like in Life of Brian. But one that survived crucifixion? Not so far fetched. The Gospels say we was up for three hours. He was beaten, forced to drag a heavy piece of lumber through the streets. Then had nails driven through him. Three hours was not a lot of time on the cross, it took days to die. The Romans stab him in the side, he looks dead and a big storm is coming. They take his body and put it in a cool, dry cave. Perfect for someone in shock with blood loss. Him popping out of his tomb after three days would put him ahead of the other off the rack prophets. Wasn't the whole "resurrection" thing invented at a later date merely to push a false "divinity" upon him. |

Did it look that way the the common Tom, Dick and Jeremiah in Jerusalem, it just might have

The Gospel of Mark which is thought to be first one to be written originally ends with the empty tomb and everything else with Jesus ressurected is a later addition. That being said, I think Paul mentions the Resurrection and it was written decades before Mark. |

You people are going to believe whatever you want to believe, and make up whatever you want to make up, no matter how stupid your rationalization comes out to be. Survive a crucifixion from people who don't even consider you a human being? Yeah, right. Don't try this at home, folks. Fishermen on the sea of Galilee and tax collectors who have suicidal and masochistic desires to be flayed alive, burned alive, and stoned to death? Which is why they were so afraid when they saw Jesus alive again. You already know he had at least four brothers who were descendants of David to look for a Messiah from their bloodlines, and you create a scenario in which they want to bring this one we call Jesus back to life so they can suffer those tortures? Come up with another one. Your desire to make it anything but what is reported is as obvious as it gets. But therein lies the real clue to the supernatural reality. The fact that over half the people who post on the web have this insane desire to rewrite this one bit of History. Why? When you ask that question, you come up with the answer if you're not totally out of control to the demons. |

Maybe the resurrection refers to the spirit of Jesus's life and teachings living on after his death, figuratively rather than literally.

No, it was one about a Roman Centurion (played by Joseph Fiennes if I remember correctly) who comes to believe in Jesus' resurrection and divinity. Jesus doesn't actually appear much in the movie. Do you recommend it? For my part, I will recommend Jesus of Montreal... and Black Robe; now I'm simply free associating from one awesome Lothaire Bluteau performance to another. Sorry, meant to reply to this but then it slipped my mind. “Risen” is the name of the movie where Maori Cliff Curtis plays Jesus. I gave it a 7 on IMDb, which means I didn’t dislike it but didn’t love it either. Jesus of Montreal is an all-time favourite of mine. Black Robe is great too. I wonder whatever happened to Lothaire Bluteau. I watch a lot of Quebec movies and TV and rarely ever see him in anything. |

Thank you for the rating; perhaps if the timing is right (like it's free 😁) I'll check it out. Oh, yay. It's an exceptional film, indeed, glad you agree; I'll know to take your recommendations as being from someone with similar or overlapping tastes. Hmm, not even active up there? I hope he's doing okay. Perhaps he could afford to retire and that's where his heart is. |
