This is a good example of humanity.  In The Reluctant Messiah a man named Micheal Flagg suddenly realizes that his head if glowing-or has a halo around it.  He doesn't know why, but soon he finds himself being billed as a saint by certain people, whom he allows to control him while he tries to milk his new found fame.  While giving a speech someone tries to kill him and though Michael survives he becomes prey to his own hoax. While touring the world pretending to be a saint Micheal endures more assassination attempts one of which kills a woman he is with.  That is when he realizes what he has been doing.I liked this book.  IT is a great example of how people can fall victim to fame and fortune and get tied up in the material things of life.  I also think it points out how easily people fall for false messiahs or prophets, or anyone promising salvation and who dresses like a holy man.If you want a good read give this one a try.
