They want them put into history a Dustbin. For 300 years judges and lawyers have sported their ceremonial Horsehair wigs in courtrooms a Long after that once fashionable practice was abandoned by other professions. But the commercial bar association has suggested that wig wearing be banned in court. The idea has been referred to the judges Council a group that oversees activities of the higher judiciary. Lord Taylor the lord chief Justice who recommended that the Issue be taken up by the judges Council himself favors having Britain s Legal eagles go baldish. Lord Taylor said that the wearing of wigs in a courtroom creates an �?o18th-Century image that makes British judges and barristers seem a out of touch with contemporary society. He has made it Clear however that he expects the judges Council not to Rush to judgment but to give the Issue due deliberation. The wearing of wigs in court in Britain dates to the late 17th Century when Charles ii assumed the throne. While in exile Charles ii picked up from French aristocrats the habit of donning spare hair members of the Legal profession quickly followed fashion. But in the 19th Century wig wearing in general quickly declined in Britain except in the courts. The original wigs for judges and lawyers were made of Black Horsehair which needed fizzing Curling and powdering. But in 1822, Humphrey Ravens Croft of the wig making company that still bears the family name devised a Hairpiece fashioned from White Horsehair. Its curls also stayed in place a and needed no powder. Today the Ravenscroft company produces about 900 Hairpiece of history wigs a year at prices of up to $700 about a third of them Are exported to British Commonwealth countries in Africa the far East and Oceania where the courtroom practice of wearing hairpieces still persists. Wigs come in two forms the Short ones that simply cover the head and Are for workaday use and the longer models that reach below the shoulders and Are worn on More formal occasions. Wigs a and Robes a Are worn Only in open court by judges and lawyers. In More informal sessions business attire is the Norm. A judges at a stroke could disarm a Good Deal of Public misunderstanding of the Legal profession if we stopped wearing wigs and gowns in court Quot the lord chief Justice argued. Anthony Colman chairman of the commercial bar association said a wigs just make us appear pompous and out of  Britain a highest court of Appeal the Law lords already has effectively weighed in on the Issue its members Wear business suits while hearing cases. And the new speaker of the House of commons a a woman a has decided against wearing a parliamentary wig As her male predecessor  claims pharaoh inspired stories of Jesus London apr an egyptian writer claims in a new Book that the biblical Jesus Christ did not exist but was based on egyptian King tutankhamen. Ahmed Osman author of the House of the Messiah also argues that the Prophet Joshua was modelled on the pharaoh who lived about 1355 . A there is not a shred of historical evidence that Jesus lived at the time he is supposed to have done and i believe the writers of the gospels adapted a historical figure into their own time a Osman said in an interview. His Book was published in Britain by Harper Collins. It was scheduled for release on monday. No . Publication was planned he said. Reaction from religion scholars has been mixed. A this theory certainly sounds a Little original and i am waiting for the Book before i say anything More a said Ivor Eisenstein a retired professor of jewish studies in new York. James Crampsey lecturer in new testament and biblical studies at London University commented a it sounds a trifle far fetched to me. Could Jesus have been confucius for example a the Book is Osman a third in five years arguing that christianity originated in ancient Egypt where there were hebrew settlements. His first Book suggested that Joseph the patriarch who brought the tribe of Israel to Egypt from Canaan was an egyptian Nobleman whose Mummy is in the Cairo museum. Osman a second Book claimed Moses was the pharaoh Vikhna ton also known As Akhenaton who was the father of tutankhamen. A a Akhenaton imposed on the egyptians the idea of one god in place of their Many deities. Tutankhamen allowed the old deities Back but he held them to be saints and Angels in the kingdom of the lord a Osman said. A that was rejected by the israelite priests in Sinai. When tutankhamen went there to try to bring them Back to the fold i believe they killed him at the place where St. Catherine a monastery stands today at the foot of mount Sinai. His Mummy shows he met a violent death probably by  Osman said tutankhamen introduced belief in resurrection and life after death and that a painting on the Wall of his burial chamber shows him rising from the dead. A that is the beginning of christianity and the idea of lire after death is a Cornerstone of the Christian Faith a Osman said. A when the disciples claimed they had witnessed a living Jesus who died and Wai raised from the dead it was taken literally by the gospel writers about half a Century later. They told the truth As they thought it was but the time is  Osman 58, studied Law in Cairo and has lived in Britain since 1965, teaching arabic and studying ancient egyptian history and language and hebrew
