“Jesus was a great teacher” is the classic, classic Muslim definition of Jesus. According to Muslims, he was not and cannot be the son of God and it is heresy to say that he was.
Obama really openly outed himself in this interview, but the MSM and John McCain (Obama's partner vs. opponent) quickly buried it and fanatically covered for him.
On several occasions, Obama has come right to the very edge of admitting he is a Muslim. I think he wants to come out of the closet, but, the MSN and the Democrats will not let him.
I hadn’t heard about the line “Jesus was a great teacher”. I’ll have to ask to find out if this student has ever said that line.
From what I heard of the class discussion, I do not believe this student was given the opportunity to make this claim. He was asked outright if he believed Jesus Christ was the son of God, and when he replied that he did not, the teacher had essentially won the argument.
