Was he (a) clinically insane; (b) an egotistical, pathological liar; or (c) exactly who He said He was: the Son of God.

Everyone who answered C is right. Jesus is the Son of God and part of the Trinity.

Very good. You have just disproved the trinity doctrine. He cannot be both the Son of God and His Father, the Almighty God.
But there are more contradictions in Christendom than that. Such as:
If the Bible does not "contradict itself", then the earth is going to last forever and Christendom's doctrine it is going to be destroyed is false. Eccles 1:4, Ps. 78:69 and others.
However, if the earth is going to be destroyed, then those verses are false which means they are lies and contradictions....
Which means the Bible cannot be true and their religion is false anyway.
False religion is not logical at all.

So, why only three choices to chose from?
Maybe he was:
(1) Lost on the earth from another planet.
(2) A Time traveler from another dimension.
(3) The ghost of Xmas Past.
(4) Giving dictation to the secretaries of life.
(5) Drunk
(6) A drug addict
(7) A rock musician
(8) Suffering from amnesia
(9) L.Ron Hubbard

He is the Son of God, the Lamb of God, the divine Word incarnate, our Creator, God manifested in the flesh, our holy Messiah, the blessed Savior of all mankind. King of kings and Lord of lords of the house of David. The Alpha and the Omega.
Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

Are they all the choices?
I will say that he was the son of God, just as we all are children of the Divine. I will say that Jesus was a dynamic religious leader, who was then made the star of a book that was written 1-200 years after his death.
Peace!

I believe he is who he said he was. I don't see a pathological liar helping so many people and teaching the way of love. And a mentally ill person wouldn't be able to do all that he did. I know this from experience.

A person by the name Jesus did not exist. Jesus is a shotened form of Joshua (Hebrew-Yeshua). Roman records show nobody named Jesus was crucified, but there was a Joshua (Yeshua) a prophet of that time.

he was neither a liar, nor the son of God,,,,,,,,nothing from what you said. first of all, how can God who created us, have a son, and if we are sons of God as most Christians believe, how can a father let his son go to hell if he does something wrong????God has no son at all, we are all creatures, we are servants to Him...Jesus is God's prophet, he is God's word to Mary....you have to review your thoughts and beliefs....
