X, surely you're not implying that? After all, we have someone who gained inspiration by walking alone in the desert with insufficient supplies, and arguing with devils no one else could see; who lived a generally ascetic and outlandish life, preaching novel (and mainly worthy) moral messages; and then proclaimed himself as the Son of God and the only sure hope of salvation and eternal life. How could such a man be viewed as unbalanced, still less crazy? Anyway, we know he must be right because it says so in poorly-translated second- or third-hand recountings of his own deeds and words, as filtered by those who believed and spread them. There, you see? Gospel truth. <ahem>
