Actually, the Bin Laden idea isn't too bad. Consider this:
1) Nobody really know if he's dead or alive, and if he's alive, where he is.
2) Despite his hidden location, his proclamations still reach everyone.
3) He reached out with almost omnipotent power and smote his enemies, remaining impervious to their counterattack (only some of the minions died).
4) Like any succesful prophet, he is being violently persecuted, as are his followers. So much so that they have taken to living in secret congregations called "cells".
And the final thing that puts him over the top: He's got a beard dammit!
Enough talk, drop to your knees and recognize your savior. |
