From Foxnews.com:
In his upcoming biography of Jesus, “Basic Instinct” director Paul Verhoeven will make the shocking claim that Christ probably was the son of Mary and a Roman soldier who raped her during the Jewish uprising in Galilee, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Verhoeven also writes that Christ was not betrayed by Judas Iscariot, one of the 12 original apostles of Jesus, as the New Testament states.
The 69-year-old Dutch-born director, best known for directing the famous Sharon Stone crotch scene in “Basic Instinct” and who also directed “Showgirls,” starring Elizabeth Berkley in one of the most panned films of the ’90s, claims he and co-biographer Rob van Scheers have written the most realistic portrayal of Jesus ever published.

scooped him in 1979!
I probably better not spend the rest of the day digging through You
Tube for the clip…
