I think it would be great if Jesus didn't have a face at all. He should look like the back of Jesus whichever way round he stands. That would freak the fuck out of everyone good and proper. Two bums. No feet though. He'd topple over as soon as he stopped moving about.

I thought Jesus was hiding out inside a chocolate egg, hence the great hunt each Easter to find him.

That's how it's supposed to work. Jesus was eaten by the Romans, but they didn't know they couldn't consume his Holy Spirit (the other half of the cookie. Since his living flesh was dead, you only need to hit the "Return" key to get him back for Easter.

Sorry for the early technical glitches, for a while I thought there were some higher force at work...
Then I realised, I posted the image on a free site, so what should I expect?
Still, it's good to see the ol' cookie has got a bit of mileage.

Oxymoron?

"umm, Caesar was talked about throughout his life, documented in his OWN letters and buildings and shit he dun, talked about by cultures and nations outside Rome. From birth till after death. As well as all the characters surrounding him, cleopatra, Brutus, Pompei etc. All documented.
Jesus isn't mentioned until LONG after his death, by really sketchy cultists. Very little else is known outside what these "Christian's" wrote in their new testament when St Paul was out creating his new religion.
No mention in the histories of the Romans, the court records of Pontious Pilot, or any other documents."-------------------
Jesus' ministry did not begin until he was 30, and lasted until his death at the age of 33. Caesar had a much longer day in the sun, and thus the chances of him being able to write and be written about during his lifetime were much higher.
The life of Jesus and those around him was well catalogued by first-hand witnesses (ignoring your ad hominem, baseless claim about 'really sketchy cultists'). Besides the 2 apostles and two later converts who wrote the four canonical Gospels, there are widely accepted historical accounts written by Flavius Josephus, Tacitus, Suetonius, and Pliny the Younger:

(scroll down to read about Greco/Roman sources)
http://www.religionfacts.com/chr…So yes, Jesus was in fact mentioned and described in Roman histories that were most definitely not written by anyone who could have been described as "a cultist".

So, what we have learned so far is that if Jesus did exist, he was a white monkey, but we can't know anything for sure because the best evidence we have is 21,000 xeroxed manuscripts and one dream from about four billions of years ago.

Josephus, a non-believing Jewish historian, also wrote about Jesus' life and death.
There are more written records of Jesus' life (most of them outside the canon of Scripture as they are more historical than redemptive) than there are of the life and doings of Julius Caesar.
Nobody questions whether Caesar lived, because he didn't claim to be the Son of God, nor was he raised from the dead. People don't want to believe in the unprovable metaphysical because to them it is not safe, it is not quantifiable. Faith can only be given by God, it can't be found in a historical record, even though an understanding of history can strengthen one's faith.
