Klaus Kinski, the mad and brilliant german actor famously went on a tour in the 70s to deconstruct his own image, and accuse his fans of objectifying him. Make of this what you will, but I dont think you really need to know what he is saying. This is raw stuff.
From a you tube post: "He talks about the 'true nature' of jesus. - That it is hard and complicated to be a real truthful and good person. -
The people who try to disturb him are christians trying to deny his words and say that jesus is gentle and merciful.
Most important quote:
"I'm not the official Church-Christ, who is accepted by policemen, bankers, judges, executioneers, officers, chruch-heads, politicians and other representatives of the powers that be. - I'm not your super-star!"

rougysays...I think Nietzsche is the first writer who pointed out to me that Christianity is a religion of weakness, not strength...of servitude, not leadership...of intolerance and conformity, not love.
It's a very wicked little scam when you really think about it: the promise of a better world after you die, if only you shut your mouth and do as your told while you're alive.
I stumbled upon a Danish woman's blog once, and she wrote about how she didn't want to worship a dead man, broken and hanging from a cross. She wanted to worship the gods of her heritage, the warriors and victors.
In a lot of ways, I think she's right.
kulpimssays...you can also see this clip in Werner Herzog's "My Best Fiend", a 1999 docu on Kinsky http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0200849/
gwiz665says...I can't understand it at all, even if Germany is a stone's throw away. Still it is intense.
