Worshippers Flock To Face
'Resembling Jesus'
Thousands of devout Christians have
descended on a small town in England
after an office cleaner discovered
'the face of Jesus' on a man.
"At first he just looked like any
other bloke in the office," said Rose Calley,
who has been cleaning offices for
5 years. "But then I looked more closely and I
could make out what looked like
an image of Christ. It was the man's face."
The man in question, an IT support
engineer known only as Trevor, as been
with the company for just 3 months
but has in that time apparently performed
numerous 'miracles'.
"It's true," said colleague Paul
Roberts. "I remember one day when I couldn't
get onto the internet. He just sat
in front of the computer, waved his hands,
and the next thing I knew I was
surfing again. There's something special about
him, definitely. He also knows some
unusual porn sites, but I probably
shouldn't say that."
--TREVOR:
Messiah?
Other workers at the company have
described Trevor as being "other worldly"
and "God like." Several have described
his uncanny ability to get the office
printer working when all normal
methods had failed.
However, some experts have dismissed
the claims. "It is quite a leap of faith to
say Jesus's face is on that man's
head," said one expert in religious hoaxes. "It's
just a random combination of long,
unkempt hair, gaunt features and a beard.
People are just seeing what they
want to see."
Trevor's employer, Simon Jeffries,
was also skeptical: "Jesus was in fact a
Palestinian Jew," he told urbanreflex.com,
" so if he was going to resemble anyone
at this company it would probably
be Hamid in accounts."
