word 'Yeshu' and then further became the word 'Jesu' and finally the name
'Jesus Christ'."

on the contrary: quotations from 20th century reincarnations of Isidore of
Saville are well within the scope of this list's interests, i should think.
and, a little comic relief now and then is always welcome.
best from here,
