What do you mean by that exactly? Is there a verse in the Gospels where Jesus says,"Don't worship me because that would be inappropriate"?

He sacrificed himself for God which is the greatest sacrifice of all.
. . .Jesus was Jewish, and the things that he said and did were the worst form of blasphemy.
I think Lewis is a crypto-theosophist and not a Christian, but someone who would want to shape Christianity into what he would like it to be, to fit better with the Theosophist philosophy. I am not an expert on the subject of Theosophy but I pay close attention whenever anyone mentions it. From certain things in that philosophy, I get a different sort of view on things like in the Narnia books. Oh I ran into that on IMDB yesterday, that they are coming out with another movie. Anyway, Aslan is not Jesus, but a mythical land that existed but had to die so that Man could evolve.

Back to what I was commenting on, Jesus went out of his way to demonstrate how he precisely fit all the requirements to be a Messiah, he was not blasphemous but they just did not want to change and be godly. They would rather have a genocidal agenda to where they kill all their opposition and inslave the rest, which is not God's way.

So, is this you saying I am hating on the Jews?
I don't know what you mean by oafish. Are you claiming that my description of God is as being oafish?
