Sean Murphy has a lot to say about the intersection of corporations, government, and religion. By turning a clone of Jesus into an anarchist punk he represents a Christian spirit that has long been forgotten because of organized religion. Murphy channels a Jesus that stood against the oligarchs of the Roman Empire and accosted the Temple for stealing meat (one of the most expensive commodities then) from the poor. This isn't just a rail against religion it's also a touching story. A moment that will stick with me forever is when the clone thinks he can walk on water because he's brainwashed by only learning the Christian Bible and almost drowns to death.
