Oh, I love this kind of crap. If Jesus was truly divine, why would he confine himself to only one small area? Why wouldn't he travel throughout Europe, Scandanavia, Asia, the Pacific Islands, Australia, the Americas, etc, etc...? Why wouldn't he want his message to be heard everywhere? Why wouldn't he want everyone to know who he is?
ALTER2EGO -to- THOR:
This partial response is to the portion of your above quotation that I've printed in bold and red.

The pre-human Jesus was the most powerful of Jehovah's angels. Because the first man, Adam, sinned prior to having children, he passed on Adamic death to all of his offspring—all of humanity. Adam was perfect when he rebelled against Jehovah. God requires blood sacrifice to atone for sins. It therefore required a perfect man to equalize what Adam had lost. Because all of Adam's offspring were born in a sinful and dying condition, none of them could be offered up as the sacrificial lamb. So God transferred Jesus' life force into the womb of the virgin named Mary. The result was a sinless human. Jesus was literally a man at that point. He had all of the usual limitations of humans. That's why it was possible for him to literally die at the hands of humans. The miracles he performed were as a result of power from Jehovah. He himself was literally human.

I will respond to the other part of your post at another time.
