Get in the Christmas spirit with this modern-day version of the birth and life of Jesus the Christ born 20 years ago instead of 2000 years past. We have something innovative here. Not just the story, but having songs to enjoy while reading. There''s 30 +/- YouTube song links to classic rock songs that go well with the section of story where the links are located. They really help set the mood of the story line. We begin prior to the beginning. Satan gets the boot and takes a posse of angels with him. He''s urinated, of course and plans on defeating God to take His throne. After God does some creating, we fast forward to the 1990s where Mary meets Joseph in grade school. It''s a storybook romance for these two virgins until she mysteriously gets pregnant. There are three young amateur astronomers following a star from the Mid-East. They inadvertently cross paths with some powerful proponents of n.w.o who had a spine tingling vision of their own. They want the competition dead, no matter how many children they have to kill to get the future King of Kings. As an adult, Jesus now has two sets of enemies. The globalists and the Sanhedrin. These Jewish leaders also don''t want their good thing ruined by some miracle man who makes monkeys out of them at every turn. Christianity doesn''t exist and these Jews have major league clout with the Government, which is loaded with Muslims. Social media makes Jesus both famous and notorious right quick like. People want to be healed. They also want someone who will stop their treacherous government. Although Jesus uses 60''s-90''s slang to deliver His crystal clear messages with modernized parables and preaching, the people hear only, No! I will not be your king on earth. Conditions heat up, snowflakes melt. Jesus has quite the time meeting with crowds of nearly 100,000 per gig without being killed. Eventually, there''s gonna be a showdown and it ain''t gonna be pretty. There is a nasty detail about crucifixions you may not know about. It explains why they sometimes broke the victims legs up on a cross. I learned this one on the History channel. People tell me when I write stories they can envision what is taking place as if they are there. This scene won''t disappoint. Consider this fair warning to both young folks and those who may get offended by reading this work of literature. If words such as, snowflake, progressive, nwo, two genders, dumb-ass offend you, go take your thumb out of your mouth and get a job, cause people are gonna learn from this story how God and freedom loving Americans deal with you globalist pawns. This book is based on actual people. But they''ve all been dead for over 2000 years, so I''m not going to lose sleep over a lawsuit from any one of them. But, cereally, this book is highly controversial. A gaggle of people who think they are going to Heaven aren''t going to be happy when they learn some TV or hometown preacher they''ve been giving money to has been shooting sunshine up their posteriors. Jesus tell it like it is. People always wanna take it out on the messenger. They won''t be alone. Socialists, Muslims, telemarketers, used car salesmen, Jehovah''s and my uncle Guido. He''s about the only one who actually worries me. Okay. Kidding aside. There are two ways to enjoy this book. The first is to just read it and enjoy a cool story. If that''s why you''re here, you made the right choice. The other is to read commentary # one and understand the political and religious ramifications of today''s society and why we need what Jesus has to offer. Everything Jesus says in the four gospel books has been translated into today''s English. Listen to Pink Floyd''s, The Wall, Us and Them, and The Dark Side of the Moon to set the tone for the commentary. Each chapter has at least one classic rock song, as well. Rolling Stones, Simon and Garfunkel, Cream, BTO, Alice Cooper, Donny Osmond, Motley Crue, and more to enhance the action. Enjoy!
