He seems like a nice guy. I don't believe he is the son of God, but I do believe he was a great philosophy, and a good chunk of his philosophy is pretty good, though other parts I have issues with. The overall message of the Bible, bad, but certain philosophical ideas in it, good.

I think Adam is hot. And looks the best in aviators. In fact, I bet he gets laid. A LOT. (by Jess. )

Clearly Jess either A) doesn't know what aviators are or B) is joking.

Well, I believe n one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds, Light of Light, very God of very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father; by whom all things were made; who for us men, and for our salvation, came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary, and was made man; he was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, and suffered, and was buried, and the third day he rose again, according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of the Father; from thence he shall come again, with glory, to judge the quick and the dead; whose kingdom shall have no end.

I agree with Nikias, but I wish to add that I don't think Jesus was black or European but an oriental-looking Inuit.

but really jesus is really made to look like what we want to look like. Pictures of him in england make him look white. People in Japan makes him look japanese.
Though technically he should be middle eastern seeing as that is where he's from.

I believe He is the Son of God, but am not sure He is equal regards to the one we know as God the Father. I find it almost all too likely that God is too prideful to create a being with the purpose of sharing the load of praise with. What? Is almighty God emotionally weak?

I think Jesus was and is in every way perfect, but....just not God-the-Father-like.

Besides, I don't know why being perfect necessarily makes you have to be God.
What is keeping me from believing He was JUST sent to leave us without excuse, but was given the Godly-powers to display God's powers, and to glorify God through his existance.

Makes a ton of sense to me.....

If such a man did live, he was obviously schitzofranic. He thought he was the son of God, which means he was a part of this big plan. Schitzofranic people always think they are. He also thought he had great abilities and people to follow him.

That's exactly what I think. Jesus was just someone who thought they were almighty. And back then, people would probably believe it.

Yeah, for sure. People didn't know what bipolarism or schitzofranina was, so they labeled it as demonic possessions or being a part of the prophecy.

That's great and all, but how do you explain the miracles performed?
Magic? Doesn't even exist....I mean, the stories in the Bible aren't factual, but at the same time they haven't been disputed, which is an impressive feat, considering the Bible has been around for a while.
