You know, I think Jesus was famous and also in a lot of trouble because he always chose people over sort of established procedures.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm sure that Jesus was an incredible person.
There just aren't that many Jesus roles around.
What strikes me about Jesus is that he is a remarkably true person; he never changes his personality to fit in with whatever crowd he finds himself. He is simply himself, and he never plays to his audience.
If only Jesus' followers shared his personality. That one shift alone would correct so many of the ridiculous and horrifying things that pass for popular Christianity.
I'm still down with Jesus. I like to think of him mostly as a social revolutionary who mixed with bad crowds and hated the rich.
I like Jesus, I mean, I think he was a good guy.
Jesus of Nazareth was the most famous human being who ever lived on this planet, and he had no infrastructure, and it's never been done. He had no government, no PR guy, no money, no structure. He had nothing, yet he became the most famous human being ever.
Jesus remains the most influential person in history, one who has inspired untold followers for millennia.
Everyone thinks they know Jesus because they've got a personal relationship with him.
When people say, you know, 'Good teacher,' 'Prophet,' 'Really nice guy'... this is not how Jesus thought of Himself. So you're left with a challenge in that, which is either Jesus was who he said he was or a complete and utter nut case. You have to make a choice on that.
