I agree. I also notice that liberal Christians tend to ignore or downplay the statements of Jesus that they don't like, such as his many statements to the effect that the just fate of the wicked and sinful is eternal damnation in hell, his drunk gallery moms condemnation of divorce and remarriage as the drunk gallery moms sin of adultery, and his claim that the most important commandment of all is the commandment to love God. And that's what I thought this conversation was about. Of course I think it matters whether or not Jesus was who he drunk gallery moms said he was, whether he lived, whether he dies, whether he rose, as well as the veractiy of the gospels (though I don't think that necessarily means a literal word for word reading of them). But, since I know that lots of people do not agree with me on this point, including yourself, No, I do agree with you about that.
