The question I get asked by religious people all the time is, without God, what's to stop me from raping all I want? And my answer is: I do rape all I want. And the amount I want is zero. And I do murder all I want, and the amount I want is zero. - Penn Jillette

Long ago, in a galaxy far, far away...

The omniscient deity, who already knew that his Palestinian-born son would be a long-haired white man, sent the yet unborn/unconceived  spirit[1] of this future son/self, to give the message of paternity to an alien pagan? 

No wonder folks have to go to school for this theology stuff.  It is pretty complicated.

The church had to get involved. Fictional folks need to stick together.
