"Jesus is Lord who died for the sins of all mankind and then rose from the dead to ascend to paradise in the sky."
It IS a bit frustrating to read how the Council of Nicea translated it in 325, especially if one were to extrapolate the desire for control of man's soul thru Jesus' martyrdom by the Roman Catholic church. If I were to translate, it would be:
"Jesus was a highly advanced student (and eventual teacher) of metaphysics who demonstrated how simple it is to heal thru prayer, but he became so feared and misunderstood by the people in power around him (due to the masses gathering in his support), he was publicly crucified for his beliefs. He further proved thru his resurrection that Mind really can conquer matter, and his following grew as a result. His "ascension" might've happened (based on his understanding that the physical world is a dream), or it could just be a metaphor for the influence his philosophy (and practice) had on human beings which spread all over the planet."

Another one...
Would Jesus be able to uphold the separation of church and state, or would it be a conflict of interest?

Interesting question
If Jesus was here today, based on his practice and preaching, would he be conservative or liberal?
