I forgot about this article.  I scan overseas news all the time since they are not owned by our media.  LOL

 You guys may get a rise out of it.

From Europe:  POLITIKEN News.

FULL ARTICLE:
http://politiken.dk/newsinenglish/article868683.ece

A few blurbs:

The idea was naturally that the comparison between Jesus and Obama – which is something that the critics developed themselves – would be comical, blasphemous, or both.

If such a comparison were to be made, it would, of course, inevitably be to Obama’s advantage.


It ends with this:

On the other hand, we have Jesus’ miracles that everyone still remembers, but which only benefitted a few. At the same time, we have the wonderful parables about his life and deeds that we know from the New Testament, but which have been interpreted so differently over the past 2000 years that it is impossible to give an unequivocal result of his work.

Obama is, of course, greater than Jesus – if we have to play that absurd Christmas game. But it is probably more meaningful to insist that with today’s domestic triumph, that he has already assured himself a place in the history books – a space he has good chances of expanding considerably in coming years.

Without, however, ever attaining the heavens....


In all fairness, Obama had nothing to do with this article.  LOL

Oh, wow--it's things like that ridiculous article that keep making me just cringe whenever I think of just how much Danish blood courses through my veins--what a bunch of silly rubbish! Roll Eyes--

--the other day I read a post by some guy who has written a mystery book[novel] in which he claimed to have said some things about God, and Christ, that 'might' appear to some of us as being blasphemous, or heretical--after I said something to him concerning my own faith in God and Christ, in his reply note back to me he demonstrated exactly how little respect he really has for the God who created him, along with this entire universe--so, I said something to him in my reply about his obviously total lack of any genuine "fear of the LORD", due to the things he said about God that were so downright insulting--but, oh-so typical of things said by many people who have that sort of arrogant attitude--

--I had hoped he would respond back to me, because I felt we needed to have a chat about it all--but, he never did even return to the message board I was posting on--oh, well--but, so far as I can tell, the things claimed in that outrageous, Danish paper's article are actually becoming "mainstream", and to me, it's downright frightening--people really are demonstrating just how totally 'braindead' they genuine are becoming these days--they never bother to read, nor do any in depth research into any ideas they adhere to these days--if they like what they hear, they simply jump on board with it, and to blazes with everyone, or everything else that contradicts what they wish to believe--

--they simply do not believe anything is all that serious, nor any beliefs are the 'right' ones to have--all truth is 'relevant'--it's like saying "All truth is local", the way they now claim politics is all local--it's absurd!--but, try telling them that!  So, if anyone claims that obama is somehow greater than Jesus Christ, I think we can be pretty sure that they know next to nothing about Christ, and probably about that much about Obama, too--and, are simply jumping on board the party wagon of their current desires--and, will not be willing to discuss any of it with anyone who might try to offer them at least some 'clue' as to the lives and works of either Jesus Christ, or the guy who now appears to be His current 'chief rival' in this half-crazed, cukoo-nut-filled world!

Well, the editor does not speak for everyone.  And if he knew Jesus he would not have said that.
