Take a lesson from the biggest fraudster of them all – Jesus. I can walk on water. My mum was a virgin and my dad’s God.
Jeremy Clarkson has provocatively hailed Jesus as the “biggest fraudster of them all” while offering tongue-in-cheek advice to aspiring wheeler-dealers. The Clarkson’s Farm star, 65, suggested budding “Del Boys” could learn from biblical miracles, quipping: “I can walk on water. My mum was a virgin and my dad’s God. And I’m going to start an industry selling this guff that will last for 2,000 years. Top man.” His remarks, made in his Sun column, blend sacrilegious humor with his trademark contrarian style.
The former Top Gear host admitted he’d fail as an art fraudster (“Every time I try to draw something it ends up looking like a dog”), but doubled down on his satire of religious entrepreneurship. The comments are likely to spark backlash, though Clarkson’s history of inflammatory remarks suggests he’ll relish the controversy.
