Does this offend you?

I love it how Jesus never apologieses for who he is. I read John 6: something to something and its after Jesus tells everyone: I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE- EAT MY FLESH AND DRINK MY BLOOD.

and then he said; i tell you the aabsolute truth you can't argue with me; NO ONE can come to the father except when he comes through me- when he wills it.

And then the disciples are like; WHAT THE- and they figure; this isn't worth it; and they leave him. And only 12 are left.
and it sort of fulfils a prophesy in isaiah that there was nothing particularily special about him to draw people to him behind all the spectacular miracles and big comforting words like 'Come to me all you who are weary and i will give you rest'.

And Jesus; when the disciples were grumbling about these hard words asked plainly; Does this offend you?

And i guess now day- you can sort of understnad what Jesus means when he said my flesh and my blood (cos he died on the cross) but some of us feel that hey; its not fair to say that YOU"RE the only way to God, to Heaven, to Salvation. Shouldn't all religions lead to God? Shouldn't a good life be the way? I havent thought a bad thought, i live for others and not myself, Goodness is goodness so it should be ok. Why would my religion be wrong? its basically the same right?
whats it called- stoicism? or something. Its quite a noble philosophy; live life noblely because.

NO!

haha.
ok maybe Jesus didnt laugh gleefully- but he sure didnt apologise for his hard words that turned people off.
He did it becuase it weeded out all the people who followed him becasue he was Cool Jesus. He was miracle man. Its rather surpriseng just how popular Jesus was; and that this popularity even at that time was so shallow and meaningless for most of the crowd.
That Jesus when he was alive was so misunderstood, and still is, and he knew it too.
