For about the millionth time, Obama demonstrates his complete disdain for the intelligence of the American people. His lame rationale for allegedly 'becoming a Christian' is weak. He makes Jesus sound like a philosopher, not a Savior. This is the game some atheists and agnostic like to play. The 'Jesus was a good man' meme intended to flatly deny Jesus His rightful divinity while giving him a secular, backhanded compliment.

Obama's position on abortion is incoherent and definitely incompatible with fundamental Christian tenets. Sorry, Barry but no sale.

Jesus didn’t leave the option of just being “a good man”.
He claimed to be God. If He is not (as “Jesus was a good man” implies), then He’s a liar and the worst kind of scoundrel.

You're absolutely correct. I tell people who believe Jesus was a "prophet" and a good man that, if they believe that, then they are giving goodness to a big fat liar because Jesus said that he is the Son of God and that NO ONE can get to the Father without going through Him (Jesus). They don't know what to say when I point that out. (Jews, Muslims, Unitarians, etc, etc, etc).

Likewise, I used to have a friend who was a "devout" Unitarian. She would repeat her pastor's (a woman) sermons and talk about stories in the bible that she believed. I told her if you don't believe everything in the bible, then you can believe nothing in the bible. You can't pick and chose what's convenient to believe in. She couldn't respond to that, either.
