He is a great illusionist for sure......................i know this is an old one....but i never saw it before.....just passing it along for those who never saw it.....

Copperfield had his time, but I was never very impressed with him.....He was too much 'flash' for way too much 'cash' (and only those watching on TV saw the Statue of Liberty disappear )
Compare him to Dave Blaine or Chriss Angel and it's not even close.

Jesus had some good magic going for a while, but needed a better agent to promote his act.
Not sure what ever happened to him.
The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness. John Kenneth Galbraith
The government executed him - legally - the will of the people.
His religion condemned Jesus... but didn't have the authority to carry out the death sentence. They relied on their foreign oppressors to do the killing... it was all a deal worked out to suppress a religious uprising.

Ahhh...Kinda like the foreign oppressor United States working out a deal to suppress the religious uprisings in Pakistan, Yemen, and other parts of the Middle East? We call them religious "extremist" or "fundamentalists" or "radicals". And instead of the religion of gods condemning it is the religion of the state.

2 different styles, Blaine and Angel are street performers, not to say they aren't great at what they do but when they try to go outside their expertise they fail badly. Blaine for example does a couple large stunts every year and they are not impressive at all, in fact they're boring. Copperfield could pull it off because he gets the crowd and audience into it with music and lights etc.
"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."
magic is all about the show and slight of hand....the one with the best show gets elected as a politician
Yup you got that right

Fixed this mess for you.
It's obvious (again) that you have no idea what your talking about.
Again....Christianity is a philosophy and not a religion.....Jesus wasn't killed because he broke Jewish law (protip: He was a Jew), nor was he killed because he broke Roman law. He was killed because the philosophy he was spreading was perceived as a threat against the Pharisees and carried out by the Romans to quell the posibility of some sort of uprising.
Kthxbai.

"HE WAS A JEW"?... well not exactly.... he was only a Jew on his mother's side. His dad was supposed to be the Big Guy upstairs... who was never a Jew.
