8. Oh hell, no.
I doubt in today's climate even Christ Himself could emerge as a leader -- and the ones who would want to crucify him would bethose who claim to be his most devoted followers.

Anybody who makes people think -- who makes people perhaps consider looking down that road less traveled; who makes them question what the world (i.e., media, powers that be) in general is feeding them -- is immediately suspect. That is one of the main reasons why we are in such an ideological, political, and social wasteland. Anybody who dares to stray from the herd and challenge "popular" thought is a threat.
