Jesus never claimed to be a "super-hero". As a matter of fact, he is quoted as having said, "Greater things than this shall YOU do". Among other things, his teachings were meant to give you "food for thought" that the world is not exactly what you think it to be.
Although the teachings are widely misinterpreted and poorly implemented by so-called "Christians", enough of the teachings have managed to survive the editing and mistranslations of the various "priesthoods" to indicate that the teachings are among the best anywhere. The implementation by the organized religions, however, is virtually an unmitigated disaster and this has been the cause of much pain, suffering, prejudice, and wars in the world.
Your post "Down with Jesus" is childish at best and ignorant at worst. The reported teachings of Lord Jesus are revered by all traditions with the notable exception of the Jews who stand virtually alone in their refusal to see the wisdom in his words.
If you are sincerely interested in a dialogue on this subject, then raise specific points for discussion. If you just want to rant angrily and incoherently like a maniac, then it's best that people just ignore you until you come to your senses and are willing (and capable) to participate in an intelligent dialogue.
Personally, I hope that you CHOOSE the dialogue approach with specific issues that are on your mind and which you want to discuss further.
Having said that, be aware that mystics, scientists (implicate order of reality, etc.), psychologists (collective unconscious), people who have had near-death-experiences (like myself), and many others can unequivocally state THROUGH DIRECT EXPERIENCE that there is undeniably an underlying level of reality. You may call it whatever you like, but the most common term for it is "God" though not necessariliy in the anthropomorphic context that most fundamentalist Christians preach. The teachings of Lord Jesus is ONE WAY that POINTS to the direct experience that you can realize if you would investigate further instead of just raving and ranting irrationally.
Yeah, I said it.

I can't believe that people are falling for Devidee. Fellas, he is very much like Dave. He likes to stir shit just to sit back and watch. He will continue to do it so stop responding. Let him make his thread saying something provocative and let it go. Don't respond to hi posts in threads where people are trying to debate.
Yeah, I said it.

Though often asked, God does not take sides in politics or college football.
