Do you wonder about the guy who plays Jesus in your local Easter play?


I am so looking forward to this movie cause I always wonder about the real life of the person playing Jesus (I have been a Christian since I was little. I know the story.).

Do they always overindulge in chocolate? Do they have a rebellious past? What does the role do to their personal life?

I have respect for them. I really do. However, I just wonder about the guy who plays Jesus.

"over indulge in chocolate"???
What?

There's a massive pageant at the Mormon Temple in Mesa, AZ, and back when there were newspapers, they'd always interview the person playing Jesus. I don't remember any details because I don't happen to be as fascinated with it -- though I think being into it sounds cool.

Films like this should be screened privately in local churches, not in mainstream theaters. Bollocks.

If you don't want to see it, don't see it.

Unfortunately, this is still a free country and the Bill of Rights applies even to those awful Christians.

I read the plot and saw that the main character has to pretend to be Christian to play Jesus, but Jesus was a Jew so wtf the movie already makes zero sense.

Judaism is a religion
Jewish is a nationality

There are Jewish Christians

Just like they're Chinese Christians
