Jesus the Traffic Cop


A Russian Man, Sergei Torop (pictured...thanks wiki), says he is Jesus Christ. Torop is 46 years old, and is a former traffic cop. He has approximately 5,000 followers. Torop lives on a mountaintop, and occasionally descends so his followers can worship him.

Luba Derbina, a former translator for the Red Cross, said "This is him. This is the one, the teacher I have been waiting for all my life. Yes, I believe he is Jesus Christ. I know it, like I know I'm breathing, and that's it." See the story here.

Needless to say, JC is not on board. "That guy is not me. Perhaps I'm stating the obvious. I look a lot more like Barry Gibb, and my eyes are green not blue."

At the present time, Christ says he has no plans to visit Torop. "Such a long journey. Who needs it? Plus, I've got people for that sort of thing."
