It's a fun question and probably depends on how you choose to look at it. Jesus, despite being a bit of a vandal was pretty much a hippy so one could say chances are he'd just turn the other cheek (makes sense considering he coined the phrase). Mohammed on the other hand conqured whole tribes, towns, regions so on pure aggression one has to say Mohammed has the advantage. That said, the childhood gospel of Thomas (or is it Philip.. fuck, can't remember) has a story of Jesus killing a kid with a touch just to watch him die and then bringing him back to life for the lulz... that sort of power and callousness is kind of hard to compete with. Add to this the whole "Jesus the destroyer of evil" thing breaking off in the book of Revelation and the muslim belief that Jesus ain't dead but just chilling with Allah waiting to lead (and win) the epic battle against evil and you gotta go with Jesus. So it's a tough choice... Mohammed has experience in fuckin' shit up hard-core but The Big JC is the one God taps to really kick some ass... which has got to count for something. Do you go with experience or potential? |
