I have always wondered if that was the case!
In ancient societies crazy people were usually thought to be illuminated by the gods!

It's not even clear whether such a person ever existed, let alone what the details of his life were.
Most of the new testament was written decades after the fact by people who weren't there.
There's some good philosophy in the new testament but as an historical account it's a joke.

YES - I´m not mocking Him, He was really the Village FOOL. Check the symbolism for "Donkey" the animal He used to enter the city, and the medieval tale of the Holy Grail regarding PARSIFAL.

Not exactly. He was a carpenter's son.... and briefly a carpenter.
And later on he got his own gang and went about spreading outlandish wisdom that most folks didn't want to hear (though his idiot gang liked it so much because they completely misunderstood it, and Jesus was too trusting to realise that).

Beyond any reasonable doubt, a big idiot. Don't ask that question again!

No, because it didn't take a whole village to raise him. Just God.

Could be ,he was always talking to himself .
I think his mother was the one to say he was talking to "god ".
She was embarrassed that he did this ,so she started the rumor.

I guess he was God's town crier.

He was pretty good. He changed the world.
Only God can do that.
