of course he wasn't the first to preach love and peace, do you know who was it, or does anyone know who was the first to teach love and peace? why did no other before him made an impact with ''love and peace'' teachings alone?
do you believe that the only Christian values Western atheists apply are ''love and piece''? maybe you are planning to marry 4 women all at once, 3 children each lol
there is a reason he is Jesus and not just someone who taught love and peace, which is where the ''separate the man from the deity'' point comes
the very reason Jesus was persecuted was because apart from his teachings, the masses also witnessed the miracles and became his followers, Roman kings felt threatened by his ''son of god'' claims and the overall trend he caused...
you think you make sense but you don't, unless you believe Jesus was the first to teach about love and peace

He made an impact because his later followers killed others in that name of love and peace to spread the 'good word'. His message was co-opted for political gain by those in power. Christians spread out, killing or forcibly converting whomever they came across. Prior proponents of love and peace tended to stay local and would have been appalled by their followers killing and enslaving others under the guise of their message.

seriously I don't get you, do you mean the crusades?
he made an impact because of the way he came to life and the way he left, and obviously because of what he did while he was on earth
don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^
