I'm not mad Gae, not even in the slightest, I enjoy our repartee. I believe there is an answer because I believe there was a man and that would reduce to something knowable and measurable. I think I understand and can appreciate your motivators, in this aspect at least. I don't think I've resolved much of anything, personally. In the case of Jesus Christ though, I'm unfortunately more of a doubting thomas than a faither. I believe, for the very fact we're discussing, that while I may not understand the 100% God motivations of Jesus or be able to fully emulate Him and His will, I believe I can come to know the 100% man personality personally.
