The Messiah ConPlex

The Moonie Times spins, nay, orbits, around the Moon:

In his speech, Rev. Moon proclaimed himself to be "humanity's Savior, Messiah, Returning Lord and True Parent."

Archbishop Stallings offered his explanation of those remarks yesterday.

"He does not mean 'Messiah' in the context that a traditional Christian means Messiah," he said. "He is not God. He is the Messiah, namely, the one who has been given the mission by Jesus to bring the world to restoration, to return it to God's original ideals for men and women."

In other words: I don't call myself the Messiah, Jesus Christ calls me the Messiah. But not in a Christian sense.

Holy smoke up your ass! Wes Pruden won't know who to pray to anymore.
