My friend brought this question up recently. Ranging from when MJ became famous to now, who was more liked/popular? I thought the easy answer was Jesus and called the ? was stupid for even asking me, but I was surprised on how many people think MJ is more liked and popular than Jesus. Thoughts?

    Dejavu...

    Me and my homie had this discussion at work....

    Everybody has more than likely heard of both of these men.....

    But i honestly think that mike jax is the most famous person of all time...simply because there are lots of people that dont believe in jesus

    2000 yrs from now Mike will be the new Messiah..
    we jus gotta wait 400 yrs after death to start up so cant nobody present evidence to the contrare..

    I'm actually not a first time poster. Just had to change my name cause I forgot my password. Anyway, MJ loss a lot of fans when he starting sleeping in bed with kids. It's close, but the answer is Jesus in my opinion.

    Yeah one glaring difference though, there is evidence MJ existed as a human being, and not scant evidence, hoards of it. So while there are millions of more jesus fans, they don't count cuz they worship imaginary things.

    but since you guys think everybody back then was black, the standup comedy was pretty simple

    "three days? ? you dead, you cant be gettin up after no three days!"

    *cue uproarious ? laughter*

    MJ by a long shot. It's really not close. There's a whole bunch of people who don't believe in/ don't like (the theory of) Jesus. Especially white Jesus lol.

    Always wondered,... and this is the crowd that should know,..... did the Presley girl marry MJ for love or money ?

    Get back to me when you see MILLIIONS [for centuries] [world wide,... all races]

    going at least weekly to gatherings in the name of MJ

    to hear about the life and teachings of MJ. Or John Lennon.
