4. As an Obama supporter, I don't think it's a good thing to present
imagery associating him with the Messiah.

6. Unless you can get people to buy into his message "This is about You."
What we are doing and who we are to one another. He's said on more than one occasion that what's happening isn't about him.

5. If something is real it is real now. "Jesus " isn't coming back, because he never left.
Either whatever it is that people are referring to when they use the name "Jesus" is some characteristic of what is called "Reality" or it is not. If it is not Real, how/why would it suddenly become Real. Do we really think presto-chango everyone is suddenly fundamentally Different? Suddenly, when conditions are "right", we're all going to live our lives according to the teachings of Jesus? Guess what, conditions are NEVER EVER right.

If it WAS Real, it left its mark on the phenomenological world, ergo, it IS Real and if it is Real there is no future tense, no "will be" to it. "Will be" never gets here, because it already IS.

Get a clue folks, there's no one in the tomb.

10. Didn't the Righties try to paint that color scheme as
being tied in with Communism? I mean, they really jumped on it when Obama used the tones ... tried to tie it to communism ... but now, the Righties are saying it's Jesus???
