Re: Chapter 14.3: A Long Ride To Hell
"Jesus is God when He has bones in, and a mother," the clank explains, wandering after Jake and incidentally providing a supreme distraction from anything said huckster and Danny might wish to do.
"He came to talk to people where they could see Him - and His mother - a long time ago so that they all would understand better and live closer to the Way, which helps them get to Heaven. He had to go Home after everyone killed Him a lot because otherwise He would upset how Life works and people wouldn't believe He was real if He let Himself get old and slow, because Jesus done came back really alive when he was killed lots, the same way, not differently. Jesus isn't all of God because all of God is Everything, but he is approximately because Everything is mortal things too, so Jesus is sort of the bit that Does - He showed people by turning water into wine for real and not by witchcraft, and standing on it also, and turning fishes into more fishes..."
