The trouble with missiahs is they have to do so much before anybody pays the slightest attention to them, then if it's attention they need and they are what they claim, why not grant totaly happiness to everybody?

I don't buy the NT story simply because the main character spoke in riddles and never actualy - as reported - owned up to being anything other than a slightly fringy Jew, and here I must remind myself he wasn't that bad of a Jew to deserve execution, but ... hey, still ain't enough reason to call him 'the' Messiah.
