..............................
CHRIST: More than technology and information, we need humanity. More than intelligence, we need kindness and compassion. Without these things, life will be violent and success will be scarce. Your Internet and your information networks have brought you closer. You made these things with your God-given cleverness, and even that cries out to the need for unity, for universal brotherhood and sisterhood, for the unity of all people.
MATTHEWS: (looking frantically offstage)
CHRIST: Millions of people throughout the world can hear my voice, and millions of men, women and children are despairing. For those who can hear, and for those to whom this message will be later heard and understood, I say, do not despair. The misery that is now upon you will pass, and will become something better.
MATTHEWS: (shrugging shoulders, mouthing words)
CHRIST: My Apostle Luke recorded my words as this... The Kingdom of God is within men, not one group or one nation, but in all men! In you! You, the people, have the power to heal yourselves and heal others! You, the people, have the power to reach across your neighborhoods, your communities, your cities and countries! You, the people, have the power to make others' lives easier and happier, if you would only help them when they need you.
MATTHEWS: (leaning into another microphone) Listen, nobody cuts into my show and cuts my mike!
CHRIST: (waves hand, cuts off other microphone) Wherever you are, look up. The clouds will soon lift. The sun will break through. Let us unite, and get one another through this. And the soul of man will be given wings and at last begin to fly. There is no more beautiful act than to help another.
MATTHEWS: (motions for security)
CHRIST: Help one another, as you would want help for yourself.
(Christ disappears, Matthews finds his microphone works again)
MATTHEWS: Well, uh, I'd like to, ah... apologize for losing control of the show there. Next up on "Hardball," Jesus' second coming and abrupt departure: How could this impact evangelical turnout in 2010? We'll talk to Bill Kristol of the The Weekly Standard and the Wall Street Journal's Peggy Noonan, coming up next.
