""The Rt Rev Gene Robinson, the Bishop of New Hampshire in
the Episcopal Church of the United States, said that Jesus
was an unmarried, "non-traditional man" who did not uphold
family values, "traveled with a bunch of men" and enjoyed
an especially close relationship with one of his
disciples."


This theory will have to compete with the other prevalent theory now extant on the internet that Jesus was, in fact Irish. After all, He was over 30, had no job, hung around with the guys drinking wine and talking about impractical things, still lived at home with his mother, and believed that she was a virgin.

(TIC/off)

He must also have been a liberal (all except the virgin mother bit)

re: Jesus as a Celt

Gee, this e-coli/Cathar-Essene-neo-Gnostic-Albigensian-Merovingian Christology gets confusing. I seem to recall reading somewhere (R.F. Delderfield?) that "God is an Englishman." If God the Father was Anglo-Saxon or, more likely, Anglo-Norman (irony), how could his "son" Jesus be Irish? He travelled with Joseph of Arimathea looking for tin in Ireland, right? Those flaxen-haired Cork babes are hard to resist.

LOL!
