I honestly don't believe he existed.

And, if he did, he was the first person in the Bible to introduce the concept of Hell. So I don't like him one bit.

I think too many people say "He was a good teacher" to pacify the Christians. ANY teacher who says he is the ONLY way to God is an egomaniac.

I think he may have been an ordinary guy that experienced something that changed his life. I believe that what he experienced was so uplifting that he would have wanted everyone to experience what he did. But I do not think he realized what he felt, may have caused a religious war, persecution and death of many innocent people; if so I doubt he would want to "share the love" so to speak. Any religion that causes pain and suffering even for a "good" reason is horrible indeed.
I am not Christian, or anything else, just an a person that is nature loving, and is finding thyself.

I think he was a spriritual master that had a divine calling but I beleive he was mortal. Long before the Christian era there were already pictured in pagan places of worship virgin mothers and their divine children, and that such pictures included scenes of an Annunciation, an Incarnation, and a Birth and Adoration, just as the Gospels written in the second century A.D. describe them, and that these events were in some way connected with the God. The same idea is found "in the histories of miraculous virgins that are so numerous in the mythologies of Asia. Such, for example, was the Chinese legend that tells how, when there was but one man with one woman upon earth, the woman refused to sacrifice her virginity even in order to people the globe; and the gods, honouring her purity, granted that she should conceive beneath the gaze of her lover's eyes, and a virgin-mother became the parent of humanity." Lot of plagarism with these virgin births.

The Islamic view of Jesus lies between two extremes. The Jews, who rejected Jesus as a Prophet of God, called him an impostor. The Christians on the other hand, consider him to be the son of God and worship him as such. Islam considers Jesus as one of the great Prophets of God and respects him as much as Abraham, Moses and Muhammad. This is in conformity with the Islamic point of view of the oneness of God, the oneness of Divine guidance, and the complimentary role of the subsequent messages of God’s messengers. The essence of Islam, which is the willing submission to the will of God, was revealed to Adam who passed it on to his children. All following revelations to Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and finally Muhammad were in conformity with that message in addition to some elaboration to define the relation between Man and God, man and man, man and his environment, and to live according to God’s instructions. Thus, any contradiction among revealed religions is viewed by Islam as a man-made element introduced into these religions. The position of Jesus in the three major religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam, should not be an exception.
Although the Qur’an does not present a detailed life-account of Jesus, it highlights the important aspects of his birth, his mission, his ascension to heaven and passes judgements on the Christian beliefs concerning him.

He was the Christ, the Messiah, one of God's mightiest and most honorable messengers (testified in Islam as he's one of the 5 God's chosen 'ulul azmi'), the second last messenger of God, and the prophet that Muslims love so dearly besides Muhammad (peace be upon him)

Peace and Love

Even though you asked nicely, those rude Fundies had to go against what you asked anyway. No respect. Why does that not surprise me. *eyeroll*

I am an atheist, and if Jesus ever did exist, he was one of many false prophets with a cult following. Some of his teachings were good, much of it was not.

I think he was a teacher and a decent magician. I've seriously heard of people today that think Criss Angel really can do magic, as opposed to creating illusions. So, I imagine Jesus's tricks would have been mind-blowing for people a couple of thousand years ago if people today are so captivated by Criss Angel. So yeah, Jesus was a teacher/magician. Oh, and carpenter.

A messenger of God who was sent to gather those ready to return to their home in Heaven. His mission was to deliver a message to the people of that time and show them the way to salvation. Sadly, his message has been misunderstood by most (even his own disciples).

A man with some good ideals and a good teacher. I don't think he was a personification of Deity, however.

only two answers exist. Either He was God in the flesh or He was a mad man.

You can't run around telling people you are God and not be Him unless you are insane

I am a believer and had to put my two cents in
