.. because Christ is Great. Since I was there it was voted as one of the best 10 NEW WONDERS of the world. Christ was a traveller far beyond Bethlehem, some say he reached Britania in the west and india in the east, Ethiopia in the south and Greece in the north...

His mesage is to the entire population of the Earth and he is followed by TWO BILLION Christians and recognised as a prophet by most other religions.
