asaris...we are to be pited among all people if Christ did not rise from the dead, not if Jesus was not God.

You're quoting off 1 Cor 15, correct?

Zen Tom is right to note that there are sayings that make Jesus sound like he claims divinity. Most occur in John. For instance, i one is reading Mark alone, there is really no sign that Jesus claims to be God, rather that he claims to have a mandate from God. If the Gospels don't agree, then I think this is a point on which Christians can disagree in good faith.
