But Jesus claimed to be God. Einstein didn't

"Sh!t ton" is rather vague. Am a billionaire? No. Do I own a private jet? No. Do I own 8 houses? No. Does my main residence have it's own staff to cook, clean and transport me? No. Do I own Lamborghinis? No.
Am I comfortable? Yes.
Are you saying that poor people need an invisible savior to take care of them?

Lazy R Us ARISE! and make it Oily! ??
I was going to write a book once when I started seeing the words of Jesus as reflecting different wars and woes and apocalyptic Amageddons and then rewritten and or abridged-
with the Ratios of Samson one can "date" statements and events of the Bible by their numerical ratio- 30, 300 and 1000, is it? The numbers killed by Samson are a reflection of hidden history, all through the book.
so anyway, I envisioned a committee with charge over what to do since the last big war- what to leave in, what to leave out- and inclusive of the comittees own edict not to add or change anything-
you can sorta group the words of jesus into three or four distinct categories of eclectic significance- not the gospels themselves, but higher or lower concepts ranging from the edicts of Saul, the needs of David, the gold peace of Solomon and the Bad Times of Malachi.
oh well
never happened- nobody ever wants to talk of these things-
if they know them, they don't want it discussed
if they don't know they are not likely to understand

As has been mentioned this argument only works if we take the Gospels as fairly accurate (something Lewis conceded I believe). Even then, it's presuming liars lie about everything and lunatics are incoherent about everything, neither of which is the case.
