I'm not insisting my own. I didn't go into details. There are messiahs for everyone who is spiritual. There is a messiah to everyone who is religious.
And there isn't to people who do not believe.
You asserting that there is is just as insulting to the atheists and agnostics as one of the latter group telling you that you're an idiot for talking to your imaginary friend.

Illogical. A building doesn't go up on it's own. humans are mini Gods. take that as you will. And I'll leave it at that.

Your analogy is inaccurate.
Anywho - back to your original assertion, there are plenty of spiritual or religious people that do not necessarily have to believe in any particular savior or messiah.
There are plenty of spiritual people that adhere to the watchmaker hypothesis....
Heh. I casually mention the Catholic Church's interest in me as a potential reincarnation of the Lord Jesus Christ, and it sparks an intense debate on spiritualism. I suppose the ability to move men spiritually is one thing the J-dog and I have in common. What if...?
I dunno.
I hesitate to even say it.
But what if there's something to this messiah business?
What if I really...
No.
It's too ludicrous to consider.

You take up the mantle of the reincarnated Christ...
Do you remember what happened to our Lord when last he walked as a mortal?
Now what if...?
You take up the mantle of the reincarnated Christ... and the Catholic Church... incredibly... unbelievably... is mistaken?
There you'd be, nailed to a tree and no resurrection in sight. 🙁
