In regard to the religious disputes above, I will not deny Jesus is God. Yet I will not condemn someone who does not agree. To me, it is a reasonable scientific proposition like Newton's physics, although in a sociological and metaphysical area that is not really quite science. Jesus is the God who affirms _You and Your importance. However, a lot of stuff was said after his story which confuses the issue. If you knew what Ben Franklin did and what he said about Jesus, you would agree that Jesus' "topic area" deserves more respect than most of our pundits' analysis. Yet someone who denies Jesus' divinity does not have to be considered an enemy at all. It is a topic for conversation and I think few understand it. For example, how can an atheist deny someone is God unless that atheist is also an expert on who or what God is? So you would have a conversation either way, and with nice manners, it could be a very good conversation.. |

Calling someone atheist who believes God is a Supreme Being and not a man named Jesus. That's so wrong. |

Sorry, while making an interesting statement, you have jumped to a conclusion which is not accurate. Being an atheist does not limit one's beliefs to a narrow scope. An atheist could believe Jesus is not God. That is not the only kind of atheist, I realize, nor the only interest an atheist might have. Some of my heroes have been atheists. The question of Jesus' nature could lead to a respectful and mutually satisfying conversation for a believer and an atheist-- preferably both of them quite respectful and intelligent. |

They truly are a Luciferian front. |
