    The Magic of Jesus

    Utter crap?

    Its just its obviously staged as its by far the most likely option.

    I mean is this just to anoy the overally religous don't realise ur ment to learn from the stories rather than treat them as gospal (if you excuse the ignorant pun)?

    I know there was some media attention, which i duely ignored, but bored house sitting saving money until tommorow, i thought what the heck.

    at 24min in, i'm really just bored.

    Anyone else seen/seing this?

    Just finished now.

    It was ok but it's very puzzling how they do some things, it does seem like one big setup.

    What's on next looks good though (Barry and Stuart again, but it's about mistakes magications have made)

    Jesus could do magic. Cards, Cup and Ball, you name it.

    God taught him.

    He made Paul Daniels in his image, and of course the lovely Debbie Magee in the image of a woman.

    It was like ant and dec after they got hold of a magic set.

    You can't properly watch magic programs like this as they do whatever dodgy things they need to while the camera is focused on the dopey audience.

    Yes, it was utter crap. Even worse was that the two presenters were then on two subsequent programs!!

    I'd like to pose two questions:

    If she'd been blind all her life, how would she know what the letters looked like?

    Also, if you'd been blind all your life then some tit waved his hands in front of your eyes and you could suddenly see again, would you not be a bit shocked? Perhaps joyous?

    Don't even get me started on the pregnancy bit

    Very disapointing. I imagine some Chinese immigrants were standing behind the refridgerators in the morgue, ready to push fake corpses into the appropriate slot.

    It's pretty much Channel 4's mandate to poke fun at all religions and goverments now.

    EXACTLY what I was thinking.. I was there like.. It's obvious she can't see otherwise, she would be overwhelmed with her 'new' sight.. Being able to see her family/friends infront of her.. and surely she would of liked to use that ability in a much better way.. rather than staring at some random letters.. !?..

    The program tried TOO hard to try and make their magic look good.. but it was done to a point where it's just toooo farfetched..!

    I too found it to be boring after awhile..

    Actually she was blind since she was 11. And most 11 year olds can read and write by that age.
