Unless he ends up in Guantanamo. He may look like bin Laden.
I once read an article over on the Thom Hartmann message boards, pretty much sums up what would happen if Jesus ever did come back.

Jesus Returns

Des Moines- In a stunning display of hubris, Jesus Christ himself has returned to earth. As usual things did not go quite as planned. Jesus's first stop was at a tea party rally in Des Moines. As the crowed gathered Jesus pushed his way to the speaking platform raised his hands and claimed with authority "I have returned my children, my father has sent me here to insure that all Christians are following my teachings".
Perhaps Jesus should have done his homework before he appeared in Des Moines today. You see with his "hair of white wool" and his skin "bronzed from the sun" Jesus looked like, well, he looked like he came from the Middle East. Before the shouts of "commie socialist" could even start he was tackled by two armed tea baggers and dragged off the platform. Onlookers claim he could be heard muttering.. "oh s**t, not again".
But crucifixion was not in the cards for Jesus that day, something much worse was coming. He was thrown into a black van with tinted windows and hauled away to an undisclosed location... on "C" street. Some of the leaders of the Christianity movement Pat Robertson, The Pope, Bill Donahue, Rick Warren, Joel Osment, and Glen Beck (after looking at these guys Jesus could be heard muttering " you know dad, crucifixion would have been less cruel) gathered in a dank room with the "son of god" and started the questioning in earnest. "Why aren't you white?" "How can you be Jesus if we aren't raptured" "Can you prove who you are? Where is your birth certificate?". Glen Beck kept asking him if he was one of those "social justice scumbags". To his credit, Jesus calmly sat and gave nothing but his name: Jesus Christ.. rank: Son Of God and serial number.. 00000000000000000000000000001
After 15 minutes of getting nothing out of Jesus they called the CIA and had him sent out of the country for "enhanced" interrogation.
Now while I would like to report that Jesus, having had enough of the waterboarding, the torture and the incessant whining of one Glen Beck, got angry, and went to town, freeing himself from captivity and taking revenge on those who use his name to start wars, rape children, and get rich conning old ladies out of their social security checks. I would like to report that Jesus grabbed his staff and laid the smack down on the so called political and religious leaders who all seem to be committing horrible atrocities in his name, all over the world, and slapping down the people who defend these leaders and worship them as false idols.
But I can't. You see he's Jesus. The Prince of Peace. And he will sit idly by and watch as the people he came to save use his name to get rich, to protect the guilty and to wage wars. Somewhere in some undisclosed country, in some undisclosed prison, in some undisclosed cell...
JESUS WEPT.
