Wonders shall never end. How many Jesus do we have now? The other day, an Australian claimed to be Jesus reborn and now he has a Brazilian counterpart. Let them just call a meeting of all Jesus-es and have them battle it out for who's going to be the main Jesus reincarnate.

This time, Inri Christo, a 66-year-old Brazilian man who believes he is the reincarnation of the son of God. His Jesus-like dressing (the Australian dude was just a regular guy in shirt and jeans) and unorthodox views on capitalism, abortion, and even Christmas has seen him detained by police more than 40 times in the 35 years that he's spent preaching.

Inri Christo has 'hundreds of followers' from around the world, including folks from the UK and France. Some of these folks live with him at his 'church' compound outside Brasilia in Brazil.

Most of his followers who live his church - mostly women - have followed Inri for quite a long time. The eldest disciple, Abevere, 86, has followed him for 32 years and the youngest disciple is now 24. She first met Inri when she was just 2 years old.

As ‘Jesus reborn’, he gave himself the name Inri which means - Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews' and Christo which means - Christ.

His view on Christmas is ironic. Inri refuses to celebrate Christmas, saying it's just a day where 'the rich humiliate the poor.'

It is a day when the little sons of the rich can show the gifts they received while the poor children only get a crumb,’ he said. ‘So it is a very sad day for anyone who sees things with the eyes that I see.

Inri says he first experienced the 'revelation' that he was Christ during a religious fast in Santiago, Chile, in 1979.

Since childhood he had been following a powerful voice that 'speaks in his head' but it was only on this occasion that it told him: "I am your Father. The God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob."

His church, the 'Soust' (Suprema Ordem Universal da Santmssima Trindade) is located on a lush farmland outside of Brasilia, the capital of Brazil, which he calls the 'New Jerusalem'. Him and his followers survive on fruits and vegetables.

Critics have said Inri is mentally ill - an accusation he vehemently denies.

I can be crazy but not dumb. Madness is different from dementia. It is the mother of philosophers, prophets and inventors.

I'm sure there are several other 'Jesus-es' out there.

For now, see more pics of the Brazilian Jesus.
