The only difference between a liar and a lunatic, is that a liar doesn't believe his own bullshit. I have absolutely no idea, nor any historical evidence to presume to know what what happening inside Jesus' head 2000 years ago. It just can't be done. I can't tell what someone across the room might be thinking, let alone a potential deity incarnate. If Jesus was Lord, then I guess it wasn't bullshit after all - again, I'm certainly in no position to say either way.
On the question of bias (not that it matters), they ask the same question i.e. Was Jesus a fake? That's two options for fake, a third suggests a cult leader (Also, what's the difference between a cult-leader and a lunatic or a liar?) which I'd suggest is also suggests fake, as does myth, and finally, a combination of lunatic or liar - i.e. another fake.
So, when you add it all up and the poll boils down to:
Was Jesus?
a) Not fake
b) fake
c) fake
d) fake
e) fake
or
f) fake
That's why it smells a little of bias - not a problem, we're not about to proove anything either way, here, just guage a range of opinions.
The option I would have liked would have been something to do with Jesus' words and deeds being altered and exaggerated in various aspects down through the ages - I certainly wouldn't suggest he was either liar, lord or lunatic - Rather, a particularly wise and gentle man with extraordinary compassion and understanding of his fellow men. But that's just my opinion.
