The founder of Christianity was the eponymous Christ, Jesus, whose personality, manic and magnetic in equal proportions, served a radical agenda that sought to overthrow the worlds hierarchical social orders. His radicalism, which manifested itself most prominently in the guise of mystic uttering, can best be encapsulated by the following indirect quote: 'Be not content with this state of things.' He was possessed of a sharp tongue that aimed its barbs at priests, the rich, politicians, usurpers, Jews, Gentiles, foes and friends. Some say his special gift was ondiscriminate truth telling. Others say it was his curse. He was born of Mary, virgin wife and mother, who was blessed with a lovely pear shaped face and whose devotees address her in the following manner: Hail Mary mother of god pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, amen!
Jesus was, among other things an unlicensed medical practitioner who could cure the sick with nothing more than a single touch of his right index finger. Whether this ability was of divine provenance or simply a matter of being adept in the use of herbs and plants is open to conjecture. What cannot be disputed is the miraculous effect he had on the sick and dying, this is why diseased people became Christians, and the poor too; in other words, the lowest of the low converted to Christianity because they found in it a balm to counteract the caste ridden ways of the world.
Jesus was crucified in a very cruel way, but he died smilingly. His happy face had a great effect on his disciples and so did the miracles he performed. In fact, he was a consummate performer; no matter what the circumstances he managed several performances a week. He once fed five thousand people with five loaves of bread and two fish only.
