So your unstated but obvious conclusion is that Jesus was a mad man

Thats what you got out of my post? That is a stretch.

Have you ever spent any time reading C.S. Lewis?

I have read the Screwtape letters and Mere Christianity.

Both good books but based, like all of Christianity, on mistranslantions and eisegetic renderings of the Hebrew.

Your conclusions stamp Jesus a mad man because of what Jesus said of Himself. You not only deny what He said of Himself, you pose your position as so refutational that only a mad man would not dump the pretense you assume for the founding of Christianity. If you were familiar with Lewis, you would know that he posed the issue as one reading of Him can make only one of two choices: He was Whom He said He was, or he was a mad man on the level of claiming he was a fried egg.
