A Thread About Jesus.

UnderpantsGnome

How come no-one can call their child Jesus? Is it an unwritten rule or is it law? I'm confused because the latinos are allowed to call their children Jesús. Are they closer to God? How come they can do it but no-one else can? What's going on? Well?

That would be a lot of pressure to put on the young fella. Imagine the pressure on him as he was growing up. No, a better idea is to call your kid after somebody who's life has been a complete and utter failure.

Pigheads first born shall be called: Degsy.

Puddleduck

Whod want to name their kid after a 2000 year old zombie beegee?

Stercus Accidit

My real name is Jesus, but I'm not named after Jesus, I am Jesus, my later reincarnations though are over shadowed in the media by jade goody etc.

So, it's not ilegal?

EDIT: Someone did name their child Hitler and the child was taken off them. Hitler even had a little sister called Aryan Nation. I love how, with that story, it took them ordering a birthday cake for little Hitler to get noticed. Means the birth certificate must have gone through no probs.

They do it all the time in Spanish-speakin countries. Christen your kid Mohammed - now that could cause trouble.

Ikky Poo2's first child is already called Pighead. When he's bold.

Mingey

There are a lot of dudes called Hey-Zeus in Spain.

Hrududu

I heard he kicks the backs of chairs in the cinema.

What? Why would it be illegal?

There are a lot of dudes called Mohammed too. Mohammed Al-Fayad for example. Allah might be more controversial. But you can cal them Al, if you have a bodyguard or a long lost pal.

UnderpantsGnome

Well, there are a lot of Jesúses (hey-zeus) but I can't think of any Jesuses (like the dude from Israel). Is it just a culture thing?

Mohommed was was a prophet, not a deity himself. While he is revered by Muslims (they would usually add "Praise be unto him" after saying his name), he is not worshiped or deified as Allah, as that would be blasphemy.

Hence why it's ok for Muslims to call their kids Mohommed.

''Why the **** would it be between that and Mohammad!?''


Well it has been hard being named Jesus...In fact its been so hard im going to change my name by deed poll to The Citizen in the hope that it stops all this hassle.

Toots

My brother in law gave their first born Iosa as a middle name. They didn't tell anyone this before they christened the kid, so we were all there in the church when the priest called out the name, and I'm not kidding, my OH's entire family were in convulsions of silent laughter.

Think it's a popular name in Spain.

karen3212

I think it's cultural.

Mary wasn't used here either, but look what happened there.

Rhyme

Zeus: Why you keep calling me Jésus? I look Puerto Rican to you?
John McClane: Guy back there called you Jésus.
Zeus: He didn't say Jésus. He said, "Hey, Zeus!" My name is Zeus.
John McClane: Zeus?
Zeus: Yeah, Zeus! As in, father of Apollo? Mt. Olympus? Don't f*ck with me or I'll shove a lightning bolt up your ass? Zeus! You got a problem with that?

People are too involved with calling their kids Rihanna and Brad anyway.

Singer73

I think I'll stick with Superman for my first born (son) - it's copyrighted? - oh sorry...(gets coat..)

jill_valentine

Nicolas Cage has a kid called Kal-El, Singer, maybe try that.

Noopti

Just go one step further and call your first born "God".

Gran Hermano

As already said above plenty of blokes called Jesus in Spanish speaking countries. Last I heard Mohammed was one of the top names for new born males in the UK last year.

Turd Ferguson

I know Big Brother, I said that even in the Original Post. I must not be saying this properly, I'm wondering why latinos are the only race to call their children Jesús.
Sorry for the confusion.
