The Christian Canon

[robvalue]

Was it the council that decided by vote that Jesus was God, as well as the son of God? I seem to remember hearing that a lot. That doesn't seem like the sort of thing that is subject to human opinion.

"Whoops, well... we've already said he's the son of God, how can he also be God? That makes him his own son, and his own father! No one's going to buy this crap!"

"On the contrary. They'll love it. The more convoluted and apparently impossible the religion sounds, the better."
