CS Lewis:
Either this man was, and is, the Son of God;
or else a madman or something worse. You can
shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him
and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His
feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not
come with any patronizing nonsense about His
being a great human teacher. He has not left
that open to us. He did not intend to.
