Reply #4: I saw a picture of Charley Manson once, but

[signmike]

as it turned out -- it was supposed to be a picture of Christ. I see some parallels.

I dreamed I stood upon a hill, and, lo!
The godly multitudes walked to and fro
Beneath, in Sabbath garments fitly clad,
With pious mien, appropriately sad,
While all the church bells made a solemn din -
A fire-alarm to those who lived in sin.

Then saw I gazing thoughtfully below,
With tranquil face, upon that holy show
A tall, spare figure in a robe of white,
Whose eyes diffused a melancholy light.

“God keep you, stranger,” I exclaimed,”You are
No doubt (your habit shows it) from afar;
And yet I entertain the hope that you,
Like these good people, are a Christian, too.”

He raised his eyes and with a look so stern
It made me with a thousand blushes burn
Replied - his manner with disdain was spiced:
“What! I a Christian? No, indeed! I’m Christ.”
