“I have friends who have read it, and I’ve read reviews of it,” Aslan stated. “I understand basically he’s turned Jesus into a member of the Tea Party. Because it’s all about taxes as far as he’s concerned. That Jesus was upset about the high cost of taxes, which actually is true, and government interference, and that’s why he rebelled, and that’s why he was killed. That’s fine.” “I will say this, though,” Aslan continues. “What fascinates me is the way that the political right in this country has sort of absorbed Jesus and made Jesus their own icon.” “The Jesus of history is a Middle Eastern Jew who advocated free healthcare and fed the poor. That’s the nightmare of Bill O’Reilly! That’s about the exact opposite of everything Bill O’Reilly thinks.” https://youtube/watch?v=n5bHDbMl54E
