DMB says:
Right on. There is a world of difference between Christ and the
church, or what has come to be called Christianity. Social level Christians
think he was God, while intellecual level Christians merely think he was
right. Interestingly, Ken Wilber points out that guys like Jesus and Buddha
highly advanced beings way ahead of their time who were not only
intellectual, but also more than that. And I quite agree. Thanks for
bringing up this topic. I hope it takes flight.
