Cyrus the Great was the messiah, as was Sabbatai Zevi, as was the Lubavitcher Rebbe (despite his claims to the contrary). The qualifications for the messiah label are very loose (despite the strict specifications laid out in the law), I live in Jerusalem and my own personal messiah is the bartender who gives out free chasers.

    Dec 2019 What I love about all the 9 & 10 year old comments is that people think they are replying to each other, but they are actually making new comments. So we have no idea what they were responding to. YT was a baby, Nigahiga was the best of the best, people mostly navigated themselves rather than being sent in herds by the algorithm.

      When I first saw the Office those kind of documentaries were so common I thought I was watching a real one, until I thought "this guy can't be for real" it was brilliant. Same with The Day To Day, there was a moment when I thought I was watching a genuine news programme. I think it was the explosive dogs news item I tuned in on and it was just on the edge of credible. I suppose now we have streaming channels those magic moments when we land on a channel mid-programme and take a moment to orientate to what it is you are watching will never happen again.
