Why does it make sense to appoint a mythical man-god to honorary king? Why not appoint Hercules to honorary king and appoint JC to honorary Archbishop. Besides there is the rumor of JC and Mary Magdalene you know. Since JC's mother has already been declared honorary queen appointing JC to honorary king has a creepy incestuous feeling to it. Hercules would be less expensive than JC. Perhaps you haven't noticed all the accoutrement's JC's followers lavish upon his shrines?
