Geoff:
Your information regarding heroes is very valuable. the only point to 
which a Christian would object would be your comparison of the life 
of Jesus with characters such as Harry whom you categorise as heroic 
or mythical.

On the subject of Christ figure versus Chrsit-like, I think, as I wrote a
 few days ago, that we have got stuck in an "agree to disagree" rut and 
are going round in circles. Perhaps we should stop before we get dizzy.
