    "First of all, what I mean by the term "Atheist", is that I do not believe that any deity is probable, nor do I believe that any deity that I have ever heard of is possible. While I do not claim omniscience--and can, therefore, not absolutely rule out the existence of some sort of deity--I feel confident that my definition will identify me as an atheist to the vast majority of the populace (and thus avoid the confusion which often results from the use of term Agnostic).

    Secondly, when I say that I am "for Jesus", I do not mean to imply in any way that I have converted to Christianity or that I now believe Jesus to be a god. What I do mean is that I have come to have a great deal of respect for the teachings of Jesus. My respect for Jesus is not based on the Cross, but rather on the Mount--not on His death and supposed resurrection, but on His teachings as exemplified by the Sermon on the Mount."

    Interesting site. Cautions against throwing the baby (jesus' teachings) out with the bath water (organized paulist christianity)

    Maybe I'm missing the point here, but how is what Jesus has said something we cannot think of/about/up ourselves?
