“As a side note⟳, around the year 4 B.C. in Israel, were there lots of people running around with the name⟳ "Jesus", or was it fairly uncommon/unheard of?”
“[>>> Jesus [Jesús Sánchez] was born on Friday, October 11, 1974, in Nizao, Peravia, / >>> Dominican Republic. Jesus was 23 years old when he broke into the big / >>> leagues on March⟳ 31, 1998, with the Florida Marlins. /] >> No, no: he's my doorman. Nice try⟳, though. / > / > Your doorman played for the Marlins? / > / > Kewl! / > / > / Oh, sorry. Different Jesus. Who knew there were so many Jesi?”
“>>> WHO IS JESÚS? / > / > / > Don't you know⟳? He's the bloke down the road that sells firewood. He also / > drinks too much and gets into fights. / Yeah, but you live⟳ in Spain, don't you. Not a lot of Jesuses (Jesi?) around here.”
“I explained it above ... he obviously only appears every 4000 - 5500 years, so the fools still have⟳ another 2000+ years to wait⟳ for him to appear⟳ again. ;-) / Of course, there's probably hundreds of Jesuses (Jesi??) born every year in Spanish speaking countries, so even if the fictional fool did come⟳ back he'd need⟳ to use⟳ a different name⟳ ... maybe Zingnut-weeblebuster. ;-)”

Broadside (NYC), from whom this version comes, reports that it apparently originated from a commercial jingle put⟳ on the radio in Georgia by a firm manufacturing plastic 'Jesi'." There are many versions with many verses, but it is a cool concept, and can't be THAT old, so I'm surprised the origins are difficult to trace.”
“The understudy took the place⟳ of the 1st Jesus so the play⟳ could continue⟳. However -- the weight differential between the two Christs was not taken into account and, when the cross was supposed to rise⟳ up. Well. It went flying up into the flies. Members of the audience probably got whiplashed... The play⟳ did not go on that night because two Jesi were hospitalized.”
“The song [Plastic Jesus] is printed in Volume 8 SING⟳ OUT (1965). The version is attributed to Ernie Marrs, although the notes indicate⟳ that no one really knows the origins of the song. Speculation is that it may have⟳ been an advertising jingle for someone selling plastic "Jesi"(?!).”

(Free of charge of course) / Thanks... nice offer⟳, truly, though I wasn't really interested in proof. I pretty much take⟳ all of this at face⟳ value... my main problem with 20 Jesi (plural of Jesus) posting, would be trying to figure⟳ out who is talking...”
“>They also believe⟳ that Jesus isn't a Jew. Totally unBiblical. / No, that's the Nazis. The KKK'ers believe⟳ Jesus started out a Jew-boy, but overcame it. They don't like⟳ pictures of swarthy Jesi with Leventine noses, though.”

“I knew Kim Milford who played Jesus in the road tour of JCS (he died in Chicago of heart problems later) and still know⟳ Dean Pitchford who played him in the road tour of GODSPELL. When both plays were in DC, I took them both to dinner -- two Jesi.”

“> It's more than a matter⟳ of degree. There were - maybe even STILL / > ARE - a lot of Jesuses if you need⟳ only 10 or 15%. /[…] / The 15% Automort said was enough is also with respect⟳ to the important parts of the story. Nobody's counting whether potential Jesi were born in mangers.”
“Now this is just stupid. He claims there is a difference between the historical Jesus and the biblical Jesus....... but we don't know⟳ anything about the historical Jesus.

Whattya doin' later on this evenin'? / > / >Wanna get⟳ together for some *worship⟳*? ;-) / Mutual admiration society for the Jesi?”
“Hey, come⟳ to think⟳ of it, maybe I'm not the Lord Jesus Christ after all. He was a wimp!! I challenge⟳ the bastard to fight⟳ me in a steel cage, in a "Battle of the Jesi"”
“>> please⟳ die⟳ now. / > / >you can't kill⟳ jesus, you cant kill⟳ something that doesn't exist⟳ in / >the first place⟳.... / Doesn't exist⟳? There's 50,000 Jesi, just in L.A., alone.”

Your choice to surrender⟳ to him should be one no-brainer. / How about if He created other planets in OUR universe that DID fall⟳ from grace? / Then there would have⟳ had to be multiple Jesi to save⟳ each Race⟳ from sin! / Making the Human Jesus not the ONLY son of God”

“> I often ask⟳ my holyroller friends where Jesus would appear⟳ if he came / > back -- that is, would he show⟳ up: /[…] / I wonder⟳ if they would ever recognise⟳ him at all. Has anyone considered a guy like⟳ Jiddu Krishnamurti to be like⟳ Jesus? Or maybe there are plenty Jesi walking around...”
“I don't think⟳ the Vatican would have⟳ enjoyed my Sacred & Profane Polyween party this last⟳ October. We had a few Jesi, including my boyfriend, who posed with a big can of beer, thus answering the eternal question⟳ "What Would Jesus Drink⟳?"

“Lou and I walked around, examining the prayer cards for various saints—the trading cards of Catholicism. I wasn’t sure about their value, but how could you put⟳ a price tag on salvation? Did people trade⟳ these? Did you collect⟳ them? Was it a sin to trade⟳ three saints for a Jesus if you already had two Jesi? Or was it more like⟳ poker? Did Mary and four apostles make⟳ a full house of worship⟳?”
