Good for you. ?Problem is, ?the majority of the world only see him as a very nice prophet. ?Are they all wrong?

Tell me, ?where was jesus during those 16 years that he was missing?[/b]

Hope this clears it up a little Starlord :D

With apologies and all copyright respect to John Prine.......

Jesus the Missing Years

It was raining it was cold
West Bethlehem was no place for a twelve year old
So he packed his bags and he headed out
To find out what the world's about
He went to France he went to Spain
He found love he found pain
He found stores so he started to shop
But he had no money so he got in trouble with a cop

Kids in trouble wiht the cops from Israel didn't have no home
So he cut his hair and moved to Rome
It was there he met his Irish bride
And they rented a flat on the lower east side
Of Rome
Italy that is
Music publishers, book binders, bible belters,
Swimming pools, orgies and lots of pretty Italian chicks

Charley bought some popcorn
Billy bought a car
Someone almost bought the farm
But they didn't go that far
Things shut down at midnight
At least around here they do
Cause we all reside down the block inside
At 23 skidoo

Wine was flowing so were beers
So Jesus found his missing years
He went to a dance and said "This don't move me"
So he hiked up his pants and he went to a movie
On his thirteenth birthday he saw "Rebel Without a Cause"
He went straight on home and invented Santa Claus
Who gave him a gift
And he responded in kind
He gave the gift of love and went out of his mind

You see him and the wife wasn't getting along
So he took out his guitar and he wrote a song
Called "The Dove of Love Fell off the Perch"
But he couldn't get divorced in the Catholic Church
At least not back then anyhow
Jesus was a good guy he didn't need this ****
So he took a pill with a Coca-Cola and he swallowed it
He discovered the Beatles
He recorded with the Stones
Once he even opened up a three way package
For old George Jones

The years passed by like sweet little days
With babies crying pork chops and Beaujolais
When he woke up he was seventeen
The world was angry the world was mean
Why the man down the street and the kid on the stoop
All agreed that life stank all the world smelled like poop
Baby poop that is the worst kind

So he grew his hair long and threw away his comb
And headed back to Jerusalem to find mom, dad and home
But when he got there the cupboard was bare
Except for an old black man with a fishing rod
He said, "Whatcha gonna be when you grow up?"
Jesus said "God"
Oh my God what have I gotten myself into?
I'm a human corkscrew and all my wine is blood
They're gonna kill me Mama they don't like me Bud

So Jesus went to heaven and he went there awful quick
All them people killed him and He wasn't even sick
So come and gather around me my contemporary peers
And I'll tell you all the story
Of Jesus ... the missing years

those 16 yrs aren't recorded because they aren't important compared to the last years of His life where the teaching really began, and the world rejects Him as God cause sin has a strong hold on them.

i hope your not to mad at the truth:)

Jesus was in India and Tibet learning from other Masters those 16 years.

Sorry, I hope this truth does not upset you either.

Damn Star, you mean Prine got it wrong? Oh well, catchy tune anyways.

When and where exactly did Jesus claim to be God? Son of maybe. For a man rejected by the world, he certainly has pretty good name recognition.

Re: Ask away...

Jesus is no more the 'son of God' than we are. Each one of us is on the exact same spiritual path and it makes absolutely no difference where on that path you are. The moment you accept that there is a Supreme Being, it matters very little what 'religion' you chose to observe.

However, do fall into the trap that any one religion is the 'True' one. No one path has a patent on salvation. Each of us is our own judge, jury and penal system with the assistance of Karma and a few measley million incarnations.

Re: Ask away...

First off, Go Google "Jesus In Tibet" you will see I did not make this up. There is pretty good evidence he was there preserved in Sanscrit. Second It matters little to me what you believe, that's your karma not mine.

Blindly believing in a book that has been rewritten more times that you can guess is up to you. Jesus was a jew and had nothing to do with Christanity for that came years after he was murdered.

Tell me, how do you explain Buddah, Mohammad and Quetzalquatl? Were they merely party crashers???

Star,

Nah, if I recall John Prine sorta Travis picks a background melody and talks the song through. Love the guy, real clever song writer.

God,

Where exactly in the Bible does Jesus refer to himself as God. This is not a matter of spirituality. I'm just asking for the content.
