I opened up this topic to talk about the identity of Jesus. I dont think we need to debate his existence just the question of whether or not he is Christ.

My theory (and I could be wrong) is that Jesus was not Christ but a genius in human relations and whos life to preach gods word was greatly influence in the early years of his life. (Ive read that your brain is programed at the age of seven and can only be changed with deep thought and logical reasoning.) I believe Jesus was told numerous times during his childhood that he was the son of god and after the first couple of times he probably truely believed it. Who would truthfully want to reject a statement like that in later years if it was programed in your head while a child.

I would love to hear other thoughts on the idea.
