Another one for you guys: Was Jesus a lunatic, a good teacher, God, or something else? This should get interesting...

DDX asked me if I ever considered Jesus being just a human and I answered what else did you want me to do there?

What did you want him to cite? He's giving his opinion on Jesus and the Bible on this page.


Using the Bible as a citing source is okay in some circumstances, but mainly he's saying things like Christianity absolutely IS right-when it's only possible.

I've read in the bible that jesus was a lamb to be sacrificed to the masses in order to save them.

I watched an interesting film about the Roman Empire, and it mentioned that Jesus was so unstable in the Roman civilization, that he was sent to be crucified. If he was that bad, he must've been slightly chaotic. No disrespect to Christians or whatev, but that's what I think.

Jesus was to be crucified so taht we don't have to pay for our own sins. Jesus was teh ultimate sacrifice.

he was actually quite mellow, the Caesar at the time "king Herod" actually could not find fault with him.

The mob around King Herod wanted Jesus to be crucified, and scared of the mob mentality he also decided to crucify Jesus.

Like DDX said, they were using the "temple of his father" as a marketplace. Not very respectful, especially since they believed in God. Sometimes there are justified reasons to be angry.

He isn't a god, he is God. God the Father is one with God the Son. He simply lived as a human being first, but now he and God are one.

Actaully the reason he was crucified was because ponitous pilate wanted to save his own life. He found nothing wrong with jesus, and a while back, ceasar said "if one more riot breaks out, its your head."
Originally he was gonna let him go, But there would had of been a riot.

Also theres not one, but 3. Father, son and holy spirit. Think of a 3 leaf clover, not 3 leafs, but one altogether

Hmm.. what about 4 leaf clovers? Is there a 5th wheel to this trilogy? (lulz, 5th wheel = something out of place).

More like he was afraid of Mob mentality (this is directly from the bible) "and the crowds cried for the blood of Christ"

They did because Jews don't read the New Testament so they thought Jesus would be a fighter and a conquerer. They were angry at Jesus for saying he was God. The Jews thought he was a false profit. So they wanted to kill him.

Um, the New Testament was written after Jesus died. (I have heard it was written some 100 years after he died but i think its really 60+ ce)

OOps I got mixed up they don't now. They still thought the "Son of God" would be a conquerer so they thought he was a false profit.
