That's my point. Jesus was just a man. Most likely a con-man, a rebellious instigator, or just crazy

There's more logic to worshipping the sun. It's a physical object that can be observed. It gave warmth, food, and light. I can certainly understand how earlier humans would think it was a god

I decided to worship the sun. But . . . I don't pray to the sun. You know who I pray to? Joe Pesci.

I mean you're not wrong. Jesus existed in some form, as the leader of a doomsday cult. His insane followers went around and preached in other places because no one took them seriously in their homeland. Jesus was just your average doomsday preacher. Christianity is basically Mormonism if the Church of LDS was started a couple of thousand years ago.

However, Jesus is/was also considered God and the son of God. Obviously, Jesus was never a god.

I agree with you. However, just like John smith, L. Ron Hubbard, Buddha, (this is the edit) Muhammad, he was just a human with convincing words for the time he was in. He ultimately was no more or no less than you or me, but he did exist
