I think more than anything else, Christ was seen by his peers and the establishment in his days as anti-status quo. I am looking fwd to Bevan breaking into a Texas correction facility and stopping an impending execution; or flipping the finger to the IRS; or breaking and entering the NYSE and with his own hands trashing the place.. This instances of insolence would of course be interspersed with healings and street-sermons in downtown Los Angeles, as well as walking on water at Long Island.. To the best of my recollections, this would be a contemporary equivalent of what Christ did in his time. ------------------------ Yahoo!
