Letters: Osama

I see where some people are mad because terrorist supporters affixed Osama bin Laden's head as an association with Jesus.

It makes me think of all the TV shows, where people go back in time; thinking they can change the world by preventing Abraham Lincoln from being assasinated, or something like that.

Hey, if I could go back in time and catch a couple of primitive Roman soldiers taking Jesus to the cross; and knock them out and replace Jesus with Osama, so he would get crucified and Jesus could escape to anonymously continue to do great things in the world, and still get credit for dying for our sins, I'd do it!

And of Osama; say: "Good Riddance!" And I don't know about you, but I'll bet a week's pay that Osama will not rise three days later.

As long as they don't replace Jesus before he healed the sick, restored sight to the blind and brought Lazarus back from the dead, I'm not worried about it; because I'd bet a year's pay that after being crucified; Osama is not going to rise from the dead in three days.
