Apparently Jesus was a surfer…

…the evidence is out there – you just have to look for it.

The long flowing locks and irreverant attitude…

The love of seafood and a drop of vinho tinto or two…

I’m thinking the whole Joseph/carpentry thing was slightly misleading – dovetails shmovetails – he was shaping custom longboards for the Galilee massive.

Don’t even get me started on the whole walking on water nonsense – he was quite obviously a noseriding genius.

I didn’t surf today. I was too busy building a lightning rod…

…not sure I want to know what your mother would have said. Mouth like a sewer that woman!

Maybe I should call on a higher power next time I go for a surf – might help my cutbacks…

I’m not sure ‘dude’ is an appropriate moniker for the son of God. I’ll just go check…

Can, could, will? Not my position in life to answer such questions so boldly – I just put forward the evidence and let other people make irrational judgements…

HalleluJah!

I never made the connections, but now that you put it that way I see the light… the one “at the end of the tunnel” that is.

Ofcourse he was a carpenter as he had to make his boards from wood back then. The word “shaper” hadn’t been thought up yet.

He must have been using a SUP for the water-walking ting, and its a simple mistake to mistranslate carving through the water as parting the sea.
