I think Jesus was just a very very wise person. He's the "son of god" in the sense that he's one of the best reflections of the truth of the universe, because he's so wise. Same with Buddha, Lao Tzu, etc.

Just simply by population growth, there's probably 10 people alive right now that are as wise as Jesus was. The problem is, can we find them, and can we recognize the depth of their wisdom if we do?

By religious beliefs, aren't we all sons and daughters of god?

Yes, but those who are wiser are more in-tune with reality, so their message resonates more with other beings. These people are said to be more "of God" than others, from what I see in world culture history. Jesus, Buddha, etc.

But yes, we're all "children of God" I guess both by what Christianity says and by what I said. Some people are just more in-tune with God (aka the universe) than others. Aka they're wiser.

What created the universe? We only see 1% of all things. The universe is matter. There is something much greater than the universe.
