Welcome to philosophy :p
Quote:I would concede that is it possible the jesus idea could be based on a historical human. But to say "Christian Atheist" to me is a contradiction of terms. I'd say believing in jesus as a man but not in any god makes you simply an Atheist. But it has already been discussed that people are free to call themselves whatever.
I think the term "Christian" in there is necessary, because it's indicating that, for whatever reason, the person is placing *Christian thought* slightly higher than other ways of thinking.
