Some thoughts about Jesus

I was thinking about the Bush vs. Jesus link that I posted below. A lot of people say that human beings distort the message of Jesus. Which is undoubtedly true, but they usually mean that in a bad way. IMHO, a lot of what we think of as "Jesus's message", both good and bad, is only what other people have made of it. It says more about human nature than it does about the actual person of Jesus. As a good UU, I really believe in the positive aspects of human nature, so I like to give people credit for Jesus. :o)
