people would call Jesus a slacker, by today's standards.
Long hair
wearing sandals
spotty work history.
No disrespect intended, just goofing around, I don't want to offend any Christians.

Once he hit 30 he kinda started the slacker bit. But he was a carpenter by trade.

Yeah, the old joke about how you know he was Jewish - lived at home until he was 30-something and his mother thought he was a saint.

When I watched the Passion of Christ, it was pretty brutal.
I remember being pretty much horrified.

Never saw it, but I'll stick it on my list now.
