Is Johnny Cash the closest thing to Jesus we'll ever see?

never cared for Johnny Cash much, never liked his music, don't know anything about his life

I'd say that Gandhi and Florence Nightingale come to mind.

Really, you think the racist Gandhi was like Jesus. 


Despite the image many try to sell of Mahatma Gandhi (Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi), he was a racist. A racist is a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another. Gandhi’s writings prove just that. More recently, his writings have created more debate about the man because Professors at the University of Ghana have filed a petition to protest the statue of Mahatma Gandhi on their campus. This petition has also revealed how racist Mahatma Gandhi was towards Africans. His writings clearly show he felt Indian people were superior to Africans and often used the derogatory term ‘kaffir’ to describe Africans to strengthen his case against racism perpetrated towards Indians particularly in South Africa. Gandhi has been described by his critics as an accomplice of colonial subjugation in South Africa. He favored racial segregation that was perpetuated by the colonial government. He even went as far as to support more taxes on impoverished African people and turned a blind eye to the brutality of the Empire on Africans.

The Racism of Mahatma Gandhi


No wait i am sorry i forgot only white people can be racist my bad.

The closest to Jesus Christ your going to get in terms of humans... His mother Mary

what do they both have in common, you ask... both are sinless.

I like Johnny Cash a lot, but in my musical pantheon, Igor Stravinsky is God, Frank Zappa is the Messiah, and Todd Rundgren is the Holy Spirit.

You may throw your rock, hide your hand, working in the dark against your fellow man, but as sure as God made black and white what’s done in the dark will be brought to the light...
