03/13/2007 | Yep, greatest teacher that lived, why? Because he knows everything.
Heck, if you time travelled back somehow, I bet he could tell what an Ipod is. : )

09/08/2005 |  Not by the wildest of longshots. Hardly a jovial chap (Matthew 10:34, Luke 19:27 and 22:36, Mark 3:5, John 2:15); not a big proponent of plants (Matthew 21:18-19) or animals (Matthew 8:32); held questionable family values (Luke 14:26, Matthew 8:22 and 10:35-36, John 2:4); didn't mind slavery (Luke 12:47); propagated poverty (Mark 14:3-7); had no sense of time (Matthew 16:28, Revelation 3:11); was far from humble (Matthew 12:6, 12:41, and 12:42); and occasionally ignored his own advice (Mark 2:23, Matthew 21). Most of his parabolic examples are shrouded in a fog that can range from intentionally mysterious to dangerous, and his more-lucid instructions (Matthew 5:13-16, 5:29-30, 5:32, 5:39, 5:41-42, 6:19-20, 6:34, and 19:12, Luke 6:30, 12:33, and 19:23-26, John 6:27) are routinely ignored by the overwhelming majority of his followers. His only ethical contribution was the concept of infinite punishment for finite crimes. He could have imparted some wisdom concerning science or medicine (being omnipotent and all), but seemed oblivious to it all. The Golden Rule was cute, but Confucius had already done it 600 years earlier. No, the inquiring mind has always been and will always be the greatest teacher known to human beings.

05/26/2005 |  Having God for a teacher, who could ask more! Since Jesus was God (the Son), and He was the creator of the universe, Jesus would have also made a great physics and maths teacher! Jesus was such a great teacher because when the religious teachers taught eg the teachers, Pharisees, Sadducees, there was no passion in what they taught. All as they taught was doctrine after doctrine. But it says of Jesus a few times in the Gospels that He taught not like the teachers of the law did and He taught with authority to the point that far more people were interested in His teachings then with the Pharisees. He not only taught with authority, but instead of preaching doctrine, Jesus not only taught us what the doctrine really meant but He taught it in a very practical way, taught us how to apply the doctrine. What was also so awesome about Jesus being a teacher was the fact that He did what He taught. He not only taught us with words, He also taught us with His own actions and example. Jesus is still teaching believers today.

12/29/2004 | I think not.His words have been appropriated by more than one maniac and twisted to fit their diabolical schemes.Besides,there have been countless teachers throughout history.It is the individual who is learning,the seeker,if you will,who must interpret and put to use anything he or she is taught.Don't tell me the Bible is the last word on spirituality if you haven't even bothered to read other literature from other paths such as the Dhammapada,Upanishads,Bhagvad Gita etc.That's like telling me Chocolate is the only worthwhile flavor of ice cream without ever tasting other flavors!

12/29/2004 | Certainly! He taught love, compassion, and morals. It is such a shame that there are so many who call themselves believers and don't do a very good job of applying His teachings -- a contributing factor in why there are so many in the world who do not believe. All Christians (and I speak for myself, as I have MANY weaknesses I need to work on) need to become increasingly better at following Jesus' example.

11/18/2004 | Undoubtedly the greatest influence this world has ever seen. A Historian/Secularist named Lecky once stated, The character of Jesus has not only been the highest pattern of virtue, but the strongest incentive in its practice and has exerted so deep an influence that it may be truly said that the simple record of 3 short years of active life has done more to regenerate and to soften mankind than all the disquositions of philosophy and all the exortations of moralists.

08/16/2004 | Even it you don't believe as I do, you must admit, he was always on the money and easy to understand. Plus everything we know about morality comes from him, whether the godless types like to admit it or not.

07/26/2004 | I'm not a church-goer or a Jesus freak, but if the guy was human he was a teacher centuries ahead of his time. (1) concepts of worship were visionary (not really needing a church) (2) concepts of social class (breaking them down) are very modern. (3) His treatment of women were two thousand years ahead of his contemporaries. (4) Strong sense of self identity (or insanity depending on who you ask) is very fascinating because of the emphasis on the self. If he wasn't the son of god, then he ranks up there with the giant teachers and philosophers of all time. This comment is way too serious. Someone tell a fart joke.

07/07/2004 | Oh yes, hands down, without question the greatest teacher that ever lived.Obviously he was not an ordinary man he had advantages over all others.He did not have sinful thoughts and never thought of himself first.I cannot do him justice with my limited mind.

07/05/2004 | Nah. I personally find Anton LaVey's teachings more practical, and Buddha said almost the same thing much earlier {as well as having a more well though out position on certain things, actually explaining WHY people should live his way}, so no.

05/07/2004 | Yes, because whether you believe in Jesus as the Son of God or not, there has been no individual that has walked the face of Earth who has had more influence on generations and generations of people throughout the world.

05/05/2004 | A great teacher, a hero. Some say he's insane, but he gave his life for what he believed in and you can't argue that. War hero's willingly go to war and put their lives on the line every day, fighting for what they believe in, and they are not considered to be insane.
