"OBAMA: Right. Jesus is a historical figure for me, and he’s also a bridge between God and man, in the Christian faith, and one that I think is powerful precisely because he serves as that means of us reaching something higher. And he’s also a wonderful teacher. I think it’s important for all of us, of whatever faith, to have teachers in the flesh and also teachers in history. http://blogs.cbn.com/thebrodyfile/archive/2008/06/03/2004-interview-obama-talks-about-jesus-heaven-and-sin.aspx"
Wow, isn't this exactly the islamic depiction of Jesus?
I think it fits whichever audience he’s speaking to: Islam definitely; and with Christians, so many not taking the time to dissect the words themselves, and so many more not even knowing the subject.
You’re exactly correct, cc. Have a great day!
