I just read this over at MSN News (what a reputable source I hear you cry!) about Jesus. I’m not a religious man but I thought I’d re-post this story because it says Jesus may have come to the UK and visited…Glastonbury! That’s a T-Shirt in itself right there surely?

A new film suggests Jesus may have come to Britain, as described in the hymn Jerusalem, its director said.

The legend claims Jesus visited several places in the West Country, such as the Roseland peninsula and Glastonbury, with his uncle, Joseph of Arimathaea.

“If somebody was wanting to learn about the spirituality and thinking not just of the Jews but also the classical and Greek world he would have to come to Britain, which was the centre of learning at the time. But there is nothing specific by way of archaeological finds; Jesus’s shoe has not turned up.”
