it may sound derogatory but for all i can see Jesus may have been an ancient version of Derren, just why would he ponder about gaining the world but losing ones own soul?
also he may have seen the priests for what they were while even themselves couldnt.. said some explicit things about them most likely softened or lost in translation over time.. and just how he became the non non conformist of today is equally mysterious..
and what about eternal life? is that completely kooky or some sort of dna coded meta id passed on in a far more spiritually advanced way than the primitive breeder can imagine ;-)

I think not! Derren would no doubt have the most probable suduko answer or the quickest checkmate result in the pixelated face rather than eyes, nose and mouth.

I'm sure there must be millions all waiting to flood the comments section. (But I still respect the man or the myth that was Jesus, fable or reality), I like the idea of a tougher than tough hard working fellow who wants to look after everyone and help them see a way forward, maybe god was added afterwards, maybe I am being naive.

Let's have ya. I'll take you all on! Christians: Sorry, we're the ones who don't actually give a shit. Try muslims or scientologists. They're always game. Banksy: Aw... alright. *Banksy walks off all depressed, with his face-model under his arm* Banksy: Come on, Christians. Let’s have ya. I’ll take you all on!

The true meaning of Christianity (and Christmas) is love, charitable works, forgiveness, hope etc - all the good stuff. The gross perversion of Christianity and its message by some of humankind is what Banksy's talking about.. What a wally.

Sorry Banksy, that is NOT the true meaning of Christianity. Awful things have happened by awful people throughout Christianity's history, but that is because people are fallible in general. If Banksy had said something more along the lines of, "At this time of year it’s easy to forget the horrible acts committed by awful people that call themselves 'Christians' " - I would have had more respect for him. Christians that correctly follow the example of Jesus all find these acts deplorable, just like all non-Christians do.
