(Newton, for instance, believed in alchemy, but was still a great scientist.)

Well, I can see where Newton was still a good scientist, even if he was wrong on alchemy. Believing in alchemy, however, is a whole lot different that claiming to be God. One can be a good scientist, and be wrong on a few ideas, but I do not see how one can be called a good man, if he claims to be God, and is knowingly lying about it. Now, why didn't you just say all that in your first post? It would have made things a little more interesting. BTW, there is a story about Jesus on the History Channel right now, so I am going to watch it, and see what they have to say about it.

Don't forget the possibility (for discussion's sake only, I know you can't entertain it seriously) that he claimed to be Lord, and truly believed it, but was simply mistaken. :)
