replaced 7x "be crucified" with "stoned out of his mind"
replaced 4x "they crucified" with "they never quite understood what this crucifixion business was about - why kill your own son? -, they told"
replaced 6x "was crucified" with "was the craziest guy in town"
replaced 5x "have crucified" with "have dry humped" - same thing! bit less nasty.

left some crucies in there as they were
