The whole point of Christianity is He paid a price no-one else can pay.
If Jesus was born from the bloodline of Adam- he would have the same load of goofed up-ness which we all have and would be impotent to save even himself.
That's the main stream Christian philosophy, and although I respect it, I completely disagree with it.
After you have removed the Christian embellishments, what is left over is the actual religious philosophy of Jesus the Nazarene; a philosophy that cannot be understood while maintaining the typical Christian point of view.
Unless you are willing to actually give Jesus a real chance at being understood, then all you are doing is adhering to Christian dogma, of which Jesus the Nazarene has nothing to do with.
