You may believe in reincarnation, if you like. Just don't believe you were ever anyone famous. And why
not? If reincarnation is, indeed, possible — and with God, ANYTHING is possible, according to a
certain martyred Jew — then anyone who was anyone in the past might be walking around on this Earth
today. And if they were famous, or somehow found their way into some historical account — well?
At any rate, I've got the right to my opinions, don't I? I am an American, after all!
Speaking of opinions: For most of the last two thousand years, roughly speaking, there have been
two generally identified groups of people who have been the most despised, and unjustly persecuted on
this Earth — used as literal sacrificial lambs for the sins of this small blue planet. One of these groups
has had a national identity to unite it — to salve its wounds and give it hope. The other has had no such
hope, and no common voice, but only the derision, hatred and paranoia of so called "proper" society. I
belong to both of these groups simultaneously. I am a Jew. I am homosexual. This book is MY
testament. If you want to know what machinations I had to go through to get the signed Israeli
government letterhead endorsement of the man who is now Prime Minister of Israel as — MESSIAH —
then you're just going to have to read the book. I promise to entertain.
Finally this: Love me, or hate me — I'm definitely not what people expected. Nonetheless, just as
promised, here I am, the one and only — Elijah. Ironically, as they might have said once:
ECCE HOMO
