How would you react to someone who claimed to be the second coming of Christ. I would suspect that he(or she) would be ridiculed a blasphemer(sic), and if we had a religious State which held blasphemy as a crime, he(or she) would most likely be exicuted for his offense against the State(sound familiar). Just think about it when you are condeming the exacutioners of Jesus. What would you do in the same situation. Next time you pick up the National Inquirer and see a story about _Man_Claims_to_be_Christ_ maybe you shouldn't just laugh it off. There is nothing in the Bible that claims that miracles can not happen in 1991. So don't be so narrow minded to believe all of the miracles in the Bible, but ingore all the miracles in the National Inquirer and Sun. Be open-minded -db
