"A man who was merely a man and said the things Jesus said wouldn't be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic on the level of a man who says he is a poached egg, or else he would be the devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this was and is the Son of God or else a mad man or something worse. You can shut Him up for a demon or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God but don't let us come up with any patronizing nonsense about Him being a great moral teacher – He hasn't left that alternative open."
