Could you and Jesus be friends?

That is hard to say. I mean I get along with most people as have agreeable disposition, but not sure what Jesus (assuming he existed) would be like given all accounts came from secondary sources after his death. If he was a man of bronze age Palestine then we'd likely have very different zeitgeist on basis of cultural shifts and centuries of social upheaval. A very tolerant person even a hundred years ago could seem old fashioned or even hateful to us now.

So, I'd have to let a person speak and have a thoughtful discussion before making a judgment as asked in this thread. My answer is, I do not know and not really sure how anyone could claim to know such a thing.

Understandable, but I think you might be complicating things a bit. For example, if I said to you that we should kill all black people or kill all white people, could you be friends with me, would you need to have a discussion face to face with me to make up your mind of whether to befriend me or not? Jesus said love your enemies, do you agree with that, and based on such other teachings, could you be friends with Jesus?
