His name is David Icke. And Bea Arthur could whip him good 
(She looks a bit like a lizard, and he is mortally afraid of lizards. No joke.)

He was a very manly goalie for Coventry City. And then a sports commentator. And then the Son of God.

I thought that picture of Icke (who I don't know from Adam) was that weird faith healer who's on Mexican TV. Don't know his/her name but she/he has the same androgynous look as the guy in the photo.Went out to the Internet to look up Icke. That's a really old picture, isn't it? I saw one in which he looked like an old and consumptive white-headed Spock. Man, he's really looney tunes!

Indeed he is, ruf. Indeed he is.
The pic I posted was from around the time he 'came out' on national tv as the son of God. Late 80's I think.

In my experience, many believers have thought about their beliefs a great deal. I know I have. I'm not sure if you're implying otherwise, but most people don't believe just because they've never bothered to ask themselves such a simple question.
I simply wonder what makes you believe in the divinity of Christ and the everlasting soul. You believe what you read in the Gospels. But what empowers the truth of the Gospel? It is my firmly held belief the existence of religion depends on the circular logic of:
Scripture confirms the existence X, so I believe X.
I know Scripture is true because X inspired Scripture.
This line of thinking is where I became an atheist. It made me realize these are just strories. Sometimes with great morals, sometimes not.
I admire Biblical Christ, and try to live by some of his Gospel:
"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the sons of God"
"Whatever you did for the least of my brothers, you have done so for Me."
