Given the fact that it is Holy Week when this will be broadcast, this is yet another atheistic attack on Christianity. Easter and Christmas are the times the Lord Jesus haters attack because His Story is most easily and readily shared to larger numbers of 'seekers' at this time of year. I take the opposite view from the actors. This is aimed at convincing 'seekers' that no, Jesus is not God, merely a good man. Woe to them and all associated with this production, God does not suffer mocking readily.

C. S. Lewis counters it best when he writes, "A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic — on the level with the man who says he is a poached egg — or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut him up for a fool, you can spit at him and kill him as a demon or you can fall at his feet and call him Lord and God, but let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.”

I don’t understand. O’Reilly is a devout Catholic, not an atheist.

Every Easter & Christmas season we get a new spin on someone distorting Christianity; this is nothing new.
