At worst, I think Jesus can be seen as a great philosopher.


I mean, if you don't think He was being truthful with His claims, then he is far worse than merely a "great philosopher."

I do not have the same opinions of Muhammad.


Muhammad was a truly terrible person who did some terrible things. I'm amazed that so many people put so much stock in his teachings. I can at least understand getting behind some of the other world religions that were founded by somewhat decent scholars and teachers, but Muhammad was not one of those.

To play devil's advocate, I would think the argument would be that He didn't actually make those claims. It was a fabrication by NT authors.

He could have been truthful regardless as he saw it. I don't think Jesus was a con man at all and truly meant what he preached. Just because he was possibly wrong about that doesn't make him a bad philosopher.
