If you were God and you were all-powerful, you wouldn’t select Bethlehem as a suitable birthplace for your only child, because it’s a horrible place. And you certainly wouldn’t let him grow up anywhere in the Holy Land. What you’d actually do is choose New Zealand.
New Zealand causes anyone to question the wisdom of God. Because if he really were all-knowing, children at Christmas time today would be singing “O little town of Wellington” and people would not cease from mental fight until Jerusalem had been built in Auckland’s green and pleasant land. Jesus would have been from Palmerston
The whole article is subscription only, so I can't post it, but I am happy to agree with Jeremy (for once). New Zealand is a wonderful place, and a fantastic place to be born.
I wish him much luck in persuading the world's Christians and Muslims to move to New Zealand and leave Israel alone for the poor old Jews who haven't yet seen the light.
