Thus Spake The Man For Whom Christianity Was Named

________________________________________________________________________________________________

According to

The Institute Of Inane Research,

Jesus Christ 

responded to 

the following question:

 

WOULD YOU RATHER BE

WORSHIPED OR UNDERSTOOD

 

If I were understood,

the same would be true

for my siblings,

Allah and Buddha.

 

 Then

—and only then—

would there be peace in 

this world.

 

Churches, temples,

and mosques

would become

redundant.

 

BUT

vanity is not limited

to humans.

 

If I were worshiped,

collection plates

would work overtime.

 

Yet

the fact is 

that humans need jobs.

 

Nothing 

provides more jobs

than military defense

of a country,

tribe or culture

!!!
