It depends where he was born.

Not really, even in 3rd world countries they would come up with a logical explanation for why this kid was claiming to be the son of God.
Insanity is it...

Well, if Jesus was born into a third world country and there was no asshole like Saul of Taursus to develop and change the dogma of the early church to something other than the intended vision, then maybe people wouldn't be so suspicious. But then again...

I'm also going to go out on a limb and guess that Jesus MkII would probably be born in Israel. That would be an interesting place to be, definitely.

Haha, I wonder if he was REBORN in Israel...
Probably wouldn't survive the first few years there with the "I am Jesus" thing.

This is funny, because someone I know was just bringing up the topic about how if Jesus had been reincarnated into the modern world, people probably would call him crazy. Jesus was like a hippie back in the Bible times, and chances are he'd be considered a hippie now.

Love everyone, mang.

I actually think that there is a medical condition or type of insanity(is there more than one type?) where you think you are the son of god, returned or first apperance.

Ever see that episode of South Park with the superfriends.

"Now I will turn water to wine, turn around."

Anyway, it's almost certain he would be called insane. People have claimed they were jesus in the past years and they all end up in prison.

This subject also reminds me of K-Pax.
