This dude is crazy.
Some highlights...??? Jose Luis de Jesus Miranda, a minister, says he is God??? De Jesus preaches that there is no devil and no sin??? Followers have protested Christian churches in Miami and Latin America, disrupting services and smashing crosses and statues of Jesus.??? De Jesus preaches there is no devil and no sin. His followers, he says, literally can do no wrong in God's eyes.??? The church calls itself the "Government of God on Earth" and uses a seal similar to the United States....and what about the tattoo of 666 on his arm?Although it's a number usually associated with Satan, not the son of God, de Jesus says that 666 and the Antichrist are, like him, misunderstood.The Antichrist is not the devil, de Jesus tells his congregation; he's the being who replaces Jesus on Earth."Antichrist is the best person in the world," he says. "Antichrist means don't put your eyes on Jesus because Jesus of Nazareth wasn't a Christian. Antichrist means do not put your eyes on Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Put it on Jesus after the cross."And de Jesus says that means him.http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/02/16/miami.preacher/index.html
People will believe some crazy shit. I'm not too surprised considering people like Jim Jones have done all this before. This dude is pretty bold though.

I remember when cult leaders actually had to be well-spoken and persuasive. Shit - I could personally preach circles around this guy. I actually resemble Jesus, too. Folks are settling.
Just saying: some of those women in the video are actually pretty good looking.
