If I were Him, there would be no odd man out.

I would ask all the neo-conservative, gay-bashing, holier-than-thou, finger waving, judmental hate-mongers out there who claim to follow my teachings to shut up once and for all. I would explain to them that their blind hatred for mankind is totally against anything I ever said and for them to claim they follow my teachings is an abomination. I would ask all the televangelists in the world to step down and stop making God look like He's got a cash-flow problem. I would ask every hate-filled hypocrate with a picket-sign outside an abortion clinic to lovingly offer to adopt the child in quesiton rather than beat the mother over the head with their religion. I would ask Bush to stop claiming he was a Christian since he's nothing more than a warmonger who drops Christ's name for votes and support.
Then I would ask U2 to play a concern in my honor and try to score Yankee tickets.

If I was Jesus, I would NOT have let myself become as angry and enraged as he became when he lost his temper and flipped over the tables of the church moneychangers. I would have behaved much more tactful by offering wise suggestions of why church moneychanging is the wrong thing to do, in a forgiving, loving and peaceful manner. You know the saying "You can catch more flies with honey than vinegar"? That's what I'm talking about.
I would have also defended myself in court with words of undeniable truth rather than giving up and keeping silent, with the consequence of allowing people to condemn themselves with the actions they did against him. He's supposed to save people, right? His silence was like a form of suicide as well as condemning those who he didn't express his reasons to.
When anyone who's charged with a crime keeps silent when questioned, what do you expect of peoples' reactions? I think he brought it all on himself by doing that - maybe as a way to self-fulfill prophesies from the Old Testament and seal his name in history as a Saint.

Here's what my church says about Jesus:
Jesus Christ
AKA Jesus of Nazareth, The Fightin' Jesus, Joshua ben Joseph, Steven Bevilacqua, Jesus Christ Devilacqua, Steve
Humanoid son of Jehovah-1. In his first incarnation, he preached a naive "peace and love" gospel, which quickly got distorted by his followers into a mammoth multibillion-dollar tool of the Conspiracy commonly known as Christianity. However, in his second incarnation, he is a pleasant guy named Steve who is making up for his past wrongs by working diligently for the SubGenius Church. Reportedly, he is dangerous when angered.

Stop the war and resurrect all the Americans and Iraqis killed.
Then I would convert an entire lake into wine to celebrate.

If I were Jesus? I'd slap anyone that doesnt believe (I personally dont but in this scenario I'm Jesus) and then run across the pool so they would. Sound good?

No you are thinking like man who is not perfect; God is perfect. He has revealed Himself to mankind and we all have a responsibility to not suppress the truth. If we do, and reject Him - that man would be OUT...as you say.
Besides, if everybody was IN......automatically.....people would live like HELL because they're in anyway! That's why salvation is a GIFT and we can't take any glory for saving ourselves.....we love HIM and are eternally grateful for being given this gift.....and therefore live for HIM.

Educate everyone on the hidden meanings in the Bible, point out the mistranslations, and explain how the church altered and distorted my original teachings.

If I were him, I would command an end to all religion and encourage people to follow a spiritual path. Oh, he did want that didn't he - never mind!

Treat everyone with respect and dignity no matter what walk of life the come from, or what they believe in, or what color their skin is, or who they sleep with; unlike many of the so- called people that seem to claim they are 'good' Christians.
