Am I Jesus Christ, Messiah, Krishna, Maitreya Buddha?
I am a scientist who has applied for the position of Jesus Christ. Why? Jesus Christ is supposed to make heaven on earth, and I have outlined how to achieve this in my book, Humanism.
I have created a new social system, which provides security, stability, and a good life for all. The most important aspect of the new system is establishing equal rights for all people. Equal rights have actually never existed because individuals have always taken power over others. Privileged power is why the history of humankind has been so evil. Therefore, privileges must end. Now I will explain how to do it.
We must participate in making all decisions affecting our interests. For example, we can decide what percentage of our salaries we pay in taxes and how best to spend them. Today, country leaders allocate most tax money to armies. Once people decide about the allocation of tax money, armies will cease to exist and waging wars will be impossible.
I have invented democratic anarchy. What is this? This is a system where each person has an equal right to evaluate others. A positive evaluation should result in a grant of, say, one dollar to the assessed person, and a negative assessment should incur a one-dollar penalty. In that simple way, each person will gain real power in society and, therefore, will be respected. This measure will encourage people to provide the greatest possible convenience for others and to avoid creating inconvenience. That means bullies will no longer harass children at school, bosses will not abuse employees, and politicians will not lie to the people. If a country's president fails to address the people’s needs, they may receive millions of unfavourable evaluations, which could cost them millions of dollars. Everyone will be responsible to all, and that will eliminate the evil of privilege. In such a system, human beings will be valued, and that will build a good society.
My system offers more market than capitalism could afford. The market for public work posts will be specially developed. A worker who provides more profit, produces goods better, cleaner, or cheaper at any time for any job in public companies would get the job. I have developed this idea over almost 30 years, and I am confident it will work as intended. No economy can be more productive than one where the best available worker is assigned to each job. Such an economy will quickly become more profitable than the capitalist one, forcing capitalism to recede. Private enterprises will join the public companies, and the owners will be adequately compensated. The new economy will bring security and abundance to all.
So, if I am so smart, why hasn’t anybody recognized me so far? Two years ago, Google launched a competition seeking innovative ideas to change the world. I participated with my project alongside more than 150.000 others. Google has not declared a winner after more than a year. Why? Google has difficulty accepting my idea because it presents the end of capitalism, the very system on which Google is built. Google also has problems rejecting my idea because my system will one day completely change the world, making it a beautiful place to live. I think Google has dropped the competition, and my project is the reason.
I wrote thousands of letters to social scientists, but they didn’t respond. Why? The social sciences are so ineffective today in proposing a good society that nothing can prevent them from being relegated to the history books. Everything will change. The economy I have proposed will be so simple that people can master it without attending school. All people will become good economists, psychologists, judges, and philosophers just because they live in the system I have proposed.
I wrote the screenplay Heaven, which presents a bright future for humankind, but I couldn’t get the support to make the movie. Also, I do not have access to the media. Why? Antichrist is here. He secretly rules the world by using wealth his family has accumulated for centuries. His name is Jacob Rothschild. He controls banks, corporations, governments, NATO, media, and all of us. We depend on him everywhere. He takes our freedom by using the power that should belong to us. But my idea will prevail. Six years ago, I offered him the chance to give up ruling the world and save his wealth. If he refuses it, he will lose everything. Once people accept the system I have proposed, they will gain the power to live without him, but he will not be able to live without people.
My system is the only reasonable solution for humankind, but it is still not recognized. We are approaching December 21, 2012, and I will try to make it a day of recognition for my work. I question whether I am Jesus, mainly to bring attention to my work. I can do the same by asking whether I am the Messiah, Krishna or Buddha. I might be recognized as all of these saviours, but I feel pretty good as Aleksandar. My teaching will save the world from all human evil and improve it beyond today's wildest dreams.

Seven years ago, I wrote:
Am I Jesus Christ?
Christians await the return of Jesus Christ, who, according to the Bible, resides in Heaven next to God the Father. I must say that I didn’t hear or see God the Father, and this suggests that I am most likely not Jesus Christ. However, when Jesus Christ returns to Earth, He should create paradise on Earth. I have defined the only way to achieve it unconditionally. This fact suggests that I may still be Jesus Christ.
***
Twenty years ago, I was very disappointed with the world around me and therefore decided to find a way to create a good society. It took me ten years to define a new socio-economic system that would make a good society, and another ten years to gain a clear vision of humanity’s future. I have presented the results of my research in the book Humanism. The system I propose is entirely different and far better than all known models. Over time, it will replace them all.
Three professors of philosophy, sociology, and economics from Belgrade University kindly read my book at my request. Their reviews of my book basically say that I am not crazy, that I did not write stupid things and that I offer a significant change and improvement to society. They were either unable or unwilling to analyze my work deeply because my book turns everything they knew upside down.
The system I have proposed is much simpler than the one used today; however, it still requires a lot of time to understand because it is entirely new. To get used to the new way of thinking and form a clear picture of the new system, it is necessary to spend a lot of time analyzing the book in addition to reading it, which I have not been able to convince anyone of so far. Someone might guess that scientists receive many new systems daily, so that they do not have time to study my work. That is not the case. Besides, there is only one irrefutable study in the history of humankind that promises Paradise on Earth and that one is mine.
In the last ten years, I have sent thousands of letters to University professors, social scientists and researchers; presidents of countries, corporations and various societies; editors of journals, newspapers, publishing houses; online magazines and newsgroups; political parties, foundations; to ordinary people all over the world and got some responses, but actually, I have not made any progress.
Authorities have been mentally oppressing people from ancient times, so they have not developed the ability to find the truth within themselves without their influence. To build a better world, I do not use “rocket science” in my book, but rather straightforward and logical conclusions that may seem strange to people. That is why I need to build my own authority so that people will consider accepting my ideas. Unexpectedly, it seems that the Christian religion might help me in that.

At the beginning of this year (2003), I discovered significant similarities between what I wrote and what Jesus Christ is supposed to do online. I will discuss the main points I found in the Holy Bible that religious people accept as absolute truth. I quote here essential verses from the Bible and from religious articles from the Internet:
When Jesus came the first time, it was to settle the problem of sin. He did not come to resolve the issues of government nor the social dilemmas that harass our world. When He comes again,n He will solve all government problems and political and social ills. Source.
Jesus Christ will return to earth to spiritually transform its people and establish utopia, a paradise on earth. The combination of removing Satan’s influence, giving humanity God’s Spirit and teaching the world the laws and ways of God will produce 1,000 years of peace and a society blessed beyond its wildest dreams. Source.
The ideals of happiness, peace, freedom, justice, and prosperity, all of which have been merely dreams of most of the world’s people throughout the ages, will actually be realized during the Millennium. The millennial reign of Jesus Christ will be a transition government from the inept, corrupt rule of mankind to the orderly, perfect rule of God the Father (1 Cor. 15:24-28). As impossible as it may seem now, all evil will be permanently detached and disunited from all good after this period of 1,000 years, the Millennium, has concluded. Source.
The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, the lion shall eat straw like the ox. (Isaiah 65:21-25)
And He shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid; (Micah 1-4).
“I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them” (Ezekiel 36:22-27).
Jesus’ reign will bring: Abundance, prosperity, stability, restoration and security (Amos 9:13 -15).
My book describes the system that will fulfill the achievements of these quotes. Please find out what it is about in these short articles: Humanism Shortly and Essential Thoughts.
In the new system I have proposed, evil will no longer exist in society. Paradise will be established on Earth, and as the Bible says, everyone will go from here to Heaven. However, I doubt those quotes are meant to be taken entirely literally. For example, if I were Jesus Christ, I would not want to be the President or the King of the World. I value my freedom. However, my absence from power will not be missed because I have made a better solution. I have created a system that will allow people to take control over themselves, following the will of God.
I am sure the realization of the system I have proposed is inevitable. The system will work because it follows society's nature. The nature of society is, in essence, straightforward, but so far it has not been defined accurately, and the history of humankind has proven it through social instabilities. I am also sure that there is no other reasonable choice for society because it does not have multiple natures. If Jesus Christ were to come after me, He would not be able to find a better solution for humankind in the existing nature. The system I have proposed may be tested in a small community in a few years, which would answer whether I am right or wrong. If the system I have proposed proves that it may make Paradise on Earth, where “lions and antelopes will eat together,” and state laws will not be needed anymore, while the people will live in perfect harmony, am I then Jesus Christ?
Another essential fact in the Bible is Judgment Day.
Quote: Romans 14:10-12 – We shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. Every knee shall bow, and every tongue shall confess. Every one of us shall give an account of himself to God. In this life, people often miss appointments, but no one will miss this appointment, and no one will be tardy. No excuses will be accepted. No amount of wealth, influence, or power can prevent your appearance.
That cannot be taken literally; otherwise, I would pity Jesus Christ. Every second, about five people die around the world. Jesus Christ would have to work non-stop on it and judge each person in 1/5th of a second. That seems to me unlikely. For that purpose, God must have some information technology that collects information about each person. I have simulated a similar process in my system. Such a process might show people what to expect when they die while they are still alive. Please consider the value of man's productive power in the article Humanism Extensively, for example. If a man, at the end of his life, has a positive value of his productive power, he would probably go to Paradise; and vice versa, if, at the end of his life, he has a negative productive value, he would probably go to hell. A person with a negative productive value will certainly not have a pleasant life in this world. That will force people to be very responsible for everything they do, contributing to building Paradise on Earth.
I’ve found some similarities between Jesus Christ and me in the Holy Bible, but I will not discuss them further because many people can meet these criteria. Besides, the Bible offers too many choices for interpretation. Also, I question the total accuracy of the verses in the Bible because men wrote them over two thousand years. A person is very inclined to imagine, invent and add to things and events, and that is a reason there might be exaggerations and controversies in the Bible. That is why I would rather talk about simple facts that might support the claim that I am Jesus Christ.
I was born in Zagreb, Croatia (then Yugoslavia), on April 30, 1955, at 7:30 PM. Immediately after my birth, the salute roar of cannon fire thundered throughout Zagreb and all major cities in Yugoslavia, together with fireworks in honour of May 1, the socialist Labour Day. In the socialist countries, the 1st of May was as important a public holiday as Easter or Christmas in the Western world. The doctor who helped deliver me then said to my mother that a prince was born. Isn’t this an interesting sign? Can this sign indicate the birth of Jesus Christ?
In socialist Yugoslavia, religion was not very popular. I was baptized and used to go to church once a year. Until this year, I was barely religious; better said I was neither a believer nor an atheist. If I were an intensely religious man, I would have developed sensitivity to the signs that God has probably sent to me and would be much more aware of who I am. But I am still new to religion, do not know much and do not want to make a mistake. However, I think there is a chance that I am Jesus Christ, and it surprised me. I know Jesus Christ is supposed to be the highest authority in the Christian religion, but unfortunately I missed all the courses on that, or I don't remember anything. Take my excuses, and I will do my best to make up for the missing knowledge.
When I decided to find a good solution to change the world, I grasped the basis of the vision (see Humanism for Dummies) about the future of mankind almost instantly, and that vision has given me the strength to persist. Might it have come straight from God? Or must it? It is not rare for a young person to want to change the world. I am probably a unique person because I have been persistent in developing my system for the last twenty years. Although the work has been mostly hard, I have not received any recognition for it. However, I did get some support from people. This support is presented here: Comments.
I was proclaimed as one of the best architects in Yugoslavia even before I graduated from the faculty (see The Republic Square). Soon after graduating, I gave up a successful career as an architect to make time to develop a solution to change the world. Whoever knew me suggested I give up on changing the world, saying it was impossible and a waste of time. But I knew I was on the right track right from the beginning of my work. On the other hand, you people have the fully defined system in my book now, and you still don't know what to think about it. Isn’t it strange?
I delivered two lectures about my work in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, in 1992 and 1993, during the war. Ten years later, on November 1, 2003, I had my first public appearance at a conference of the Society for Utopian Studies in San Diego, California. At the time, massive, furious wildfires were raging there. Before I left for California, I joked to my wife Dušica: “If an earthquake occurs in California while I am there, I must be Jesus Christ.” I spent only one night in San Diego. When I woke up the next day (November 2) in my hotel room and turned on the TV, the first message I received was: “San Bernardino Mountains (close to San Diego) was shaken this night by two earthquakes with a magnitude of 3.5”. Coincidence?
Jesus Christ is expected to perform miracles so He can be recognized. For example, Jesus Christ should be able to walk on water. I saw the magician Criss Angel walk on water on television. So why has nobody considered him Jesus Christ? If I learned how to make such an illusion, would I then have a chance to be accepted as Jesus Christ? However, I think that I have made a far greater miracle than walking on water. I have defined how to make the world a beautiful place to be, how to create heaven on earth. Nobody has ever done this. Now, one could argue that my theory has not yet been proven in practice and might be wrong. Also, one could suggest that Jesus Christ would create a paradise on earth, which would lead to His recognition. I would respond that even the Lord Jesus Christ is not expected to force people down the correct path; rather, people are expected to embrace the way of Jesus Christ. People will eventually accept my path because they will have no other choice. My path is the only right path.
Dear people, the terrible situation in the world pressures me to act vigorously. I believe the problem is worse than you think, and it must change. Besides, crime, rape, and killings have come to my neighbourhood. Evil has never been closer to me than now, and that must end. On top of everything, I think that the Antichrist is here among us. He must be stopped, and the system I have proposed will do it.
All my life, I’ve wanted to do something good and essential. Still, I hesitated to announce the possibility that I could be Jesus Christ because I cannot even imagine what kind of trouble I would be getting into. If I am not Jesus Christ, you will tease me, but I would not care much about that. If I were Jesus Christ, I might be in danger from anyone who would not like it. The only thing I can do in that case is hope the Bible is right about my destiny and that God will protect me. Unfortunately, I cannot rely on it entirely because I do not know which parts of the Bible carry God's authentic words and which parts reflect the creative imagination of writers through generations.
In the end, I have decided to take the risk and stand firmly behind my book as much as I can. If I successfully advocate for my book, you will accept the system I have proposed much sooner. In fact, it is only a matter of whether the system will be implemented before or after a series of catastrophes. When you accept the system I have proposed, it will undoubtedly save you from all the social evils, regardless of what race, nation, religion, class, age, or gender you belong to.

My book “Humanism” has been available free of charge worldwide since 2000, when I published the Serbo-Croatian version on my website www.sarovic.com. I released the English translation the following year. In the last three years, about 200 people have downloaded my book, but I have received almost no responses. The silence follows me everywhere, all the time, and I don't know why! So far, I have exchanged opinions with individuals who have read my articles, but I have found it to be a pretty big waste of time. The system I have proposed could not be understood without reading the book. Therefore, I will avoid discussing my book further with anyone who has not read it.
Dear reader, if you believe in Jesus Christ and consider the possibility that I might be Him, I would like you to read my book. I wrote it so that anyone who makes a small effort can understand it. (Don’t worry about technicalities; it’s the job for scientists and me.) I want to distribute at least 200,000 copies of the book in the next three years. When you consider whether this book is good enough to change the world, listen to no one but yourself. Millions of authorities around you prevent you from finding the truth within you. You may and should discuss the book with others, but in the end, form your own final opinion. When you form your opinion, I would be grateful if you could write to me in up to 50 words about whether you like the book and why. That would tell me a lot. If you don’t want the system, it just means you need more time to start loving it. “I guess you guys aren’t ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it.” (Back to the Future – Part I:-)
The book is actually not religious, so I feel like I need to conclude with my view of religion. No theory has ever convincingly explained how to make something from nothing. This is the biggest jump and the greatest enigma for philosophers and scientists. The Bible says that God did precisely this when He created our world. The Bible does not elaborate on the technical details, or we are too imperfect to understand them. Maybe our ignorance is why the Bible presents God so simply. The Bible probably presents God's will, but I doubt it does so accurately because men certainly have difficulty receiving and understanding God's words.
The theory of evolution states that natural selection develops life from simpler forms to more complex ones. The stronger being survives, and this underpins development. But is it enough? A profound logic and miraculous harmony exist among atoms, molecules, genes, nature, and space, without which we would not exist. Does something protect us? Most likely, some supernatural power-up contributes to the development of nature and, of course, us people. I accept it as supernatural because I cannot imagine it any other way. I have recognized its name as God. I have not seen nor heard God, nor am I aware of it. I also accept the existence of God because the Bible predicted 2000 years ago the coming of the Messiah, who should lead people in the right way and establish harmony in society. My book fulfills it completely, and that is why I am applying for Jesus Christ’s position. One may claim that the result of my work has been just a millennial aspiration of people who lived in injustice and evil. Well, if that were the case, then the prophecies written in the Bible are really fantastic coincidences. I firmly believe that one day, far from now, science will come to understand God, whatever He is, and then we, on Earth, will truly discover something about Him.
God might have had complete control over the “Big Bang,” or He might have left some independent influences in the natural laws He created. We do not know. God might have created the entire evolutionary process, or His natural laws might have acted independently. Or maybe, in both cases, something completely different happened that we could not even contemplate. We should accept that we do not know it. We do not need to argue about who is right or wrong when we cannot prove anything. Finding solutions to these dilemmas is far more difficult than solving other questions that bother us today, so we will find complete answers much later than we do for other issues. I believe God influences us, but we also have our choices, and He encourages them. He is good.
I would gladly discuss the issue with decent people as much as I can through the discussion forum on this website. Also, I will write more about religion as soon as I find something new. But do not expect much more from me, even though I would like to find answers to many questions. God will not put the answers into “my dish.“ It never happens that easily, and that is good. What would we do if we already had answers to all questions? Life would lose one of its most important senses. Discovery is actually the beauty of living.
