So you are saying Jesus was a tax agent?
Did he get a kick-back from Tiberius (or was
it in fact Constantine, the brigand?)


Yeah but why would a representative of god
let the dude in the sky ride in the back seat of
the cadilac?


Surely, he knew he was to be executed by the might
and glory of the (to become holy) Empire of the Romans
at another future and pre-ordained Golgathic time?

The only problem with this guess is that, the way the
book (first publication c.331 CE) reads, it lends an
absolutely enormous authenticity, over and above
the powers of any divinities, to the authenticity
of the imperial Roman taxation regimes.


This is the most likely of all you have written,
possibly the most cogent response to-date on
this thread.

The message is plain and clear.
Number One priority: pay your taxes.
Next ... etc
