[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actually, OP, here is a slightly expanded argument:

I.  Jesus claimed divinity
    A.  He meant it literally
        1.  It is true......Lord
        2.  It is false
             a.  He knew it was false......Liar
             b.  He didn't know it was false.......Lunatic
    B.  He meant it nonliterally, mystically.......Guru
II.  Jesus never claimed divinity.......Myth

There is nothing "blind" about this faith.  "Smart, analytical" people around the world have worked their way through the evidence for centuries and concluded "Jesus is Lord."[/quote]

You know, the funny thing is, I can't figure out if this is an argument against Christian theism, a parody of an argument in favor, or an argument in favor "on the square".  I think this says a lot about the impoverished nature of theocratic argument.[/quote]

It's just an outline, my friend.  Each aspect of it has a full exposition, with centuries of thought behind it.  Beyond the scope of this board, but a good summation of the OP's question.[/quote]
