Socrates and Jesus

It's like every discussion I've had with a fundamentalist ever

I think jesus should have been presented in a better manner. I mean it's all very well and good, except that one, I have this feeling like it's a bunch of atheists sitting around a table going "haha, christians are stupid" and it's so very self congratulatory; and two, because jesus is portrayed so weakly I can't possibly give this to my theists friends because they will (probably rightfully) declare I am presenting a straw man of their position (namely that I am not properly engaging their position).

Excelllent demonstration of how the christian concept of God is in many ways self-contradictory. And yet most Christians fail to see any of the contradicitons. I wonder if it's because they're so stupid, or because they have been so efficiently brainwashed by their churches.

Socrates was gone.

Were I confronted to this Jesus, I would have reached that step far earlier.
