London
(ANI):
The
Beatles
have
surpassed
Jesus
in
terms
of
popularity
on
the
Google
search
engine.
An
analysis
of
search
terms
showed
more
people
searched
for
the
band
on
Google
than
the
son
of
God
during
September.
The
group"s
popularity
maybe
linked
to
the
re-release
of
all
of
their
digitally-remastered
albums,
along
with
the
release
of
the
video
game
The
Beatles
Rock
Band,
reports
the
Telegraph.
Interestingly,
late
Beatle
John
Lennon
may
be
said
to
be
having
the
last
laugh
more
than
forty
years
after
he
came
under
fire
for
alleging
that
the
rockers
were
bigger
than
Jesus.
The
musician
was
slammed
by
Christians
in
March
1966
when
he
told
the
Evening
Standard:
"I
do
not
know
what
will
go
first,
rock'n'roll
or
Christianity
…
we're
more
popular
than
Jesus
now".
