The New Testament, by Warren Ellis

THE DAYS OF CATHCART ZEN:
"I have just noticed that Christmas approaches again. The time of buying stuff. To celebrate the birth of a fine Jewish politician and revolutionary of the First Century who faked his own death and had it away on his toes when the hammer of the occupational forces in the Middle East came down. If that all happened today, churches would feature stained glass windows depicting Jesus with a hood over his head and electrodes attached to his testicles.

And then Donald Rumsfeld could have an epileptic fit on the road to Damascus, declare it a revelatory vision, and start wearing a dress.

Who wouldn't pay money for that?

Love me now."
