The Jesus Christ Show

California's largest radio talk show, KFI-AM 640, features a Sunday morning program that just happens to be titled, "The Jesus Christ Show" where host, Neil Saavedra, takes on the role of "Jesus Christ." No, I'm not kidding. Before buzz words like "falst prophet" begin popping in your brain - read on. Saavedra was approached to do the show about 8 years ago by KFI's program director and at first thought, "'Well, why not?' I couldn't figure out a reason why it was blasphemous or theologically wrong." A new call-in show was born and today it boasts No. 1 in its time slot. A full article taken from "The Dude Abides -An Existential Crossing Guard at the Intersection of Spirituality and Pop Culture blog" can be viewed here.

What do you think? Blasphemous or theologically wrong? Or perhaps an intelligent and creative way to take Jesus to people who might otherwise not be interested?
