coug,
I can tell you what jesus thinks, jesus is pissed.
I ran into jesus on the street awhile back, he was black, homeless and pushing a shopping cart with his belongings in it. He was really pissed off, yelling angrily in my direction but kinda at the air, and I couldn't understand what he was saying, so I walked over to him, and said, what are you yelling about, are you OK? He seemed surprised that I would ask, as if he does this all the time and no one ever bothers to listen. When I asked what's bothering him, it startled him it seemed. This is when he explained to me he was jesus. I looked him in the eye and thought, heck, you may well be. I asked him what was wrong. He said he was really mad at the president, for greed, oppression, he spouted off a multitude of reasons. He had sadness and a kind of pleading in his eyes, as if to say "can't you see my pain?" I did see it. I told jesus that this whole world would be brighter if people listened to him, and I wished they would. I asked him if he needed any money, and he gave me this HUGE smile and almost laughingly said.... noooo, I don't need any money, I am "rich". I said, well then, I've enjoyed talking to you jesus and if I had the power to make things right I would, but all I can offer is to wish you well on your journey. He smiled another HUGE smile and, dang if the entire sky didn't get a little brighter along with that amazing smile.
(he coulda been jesus, cause I know no one is listening to Jesus much these days, obviously even when he's screaming and yelling on a street corner <g>)
True story, happened on 25th and Geary in SF,CA.
