..... the BBC have yet another crazy hypothesis about Jesus. This time, it seems Jesus maybe was a ..... wait for it ..... Buddhist monk. You've got to feel sorry for these program producers. Imagine sitting around a programming meeting in the middle of the year discussing what they can do to raise their Christmas ratings. "We should do the shocking story that Jesus never existed." "Nah! Old hat! Been done to death." "Let's focus on his sex life with Mary Magdalene." "Not this year I don't think. We only do that on even numbered years." "Maybe he was the invention of the Romans to pacify the Jews .... wait, has that been done before, I can't remember?" "What about a sacred mushroom?" "You'd need to have smoked one to take THAT seriously!" "So what can we do?" "I know, maybe he was an ISIS jihadi." "Not sure that would get past our public interest requirements." "There must be something .... " "Yeah, we need something really crazy to keep people interested." "I've got it, maybe he was a Buddhist monk. Maybe he didn't wear white, but orange." "Great idea. let's run with it."

My apologies. The BBC documentary is apparently old, it is just the article in "Ideapod" that was new. Nothing to see here, move right along. My mistake!

"I've got it, maybe he was a Buddhist monk. Maybe he didn't wear white, but orange." Not very stealthy, I reckon.
