Here let me ask another question for you

Was he devinly inspired by a God?

(such as a prophet?)
I'm not sure why you're asking me such a question. Have the links in my signature escaped your notice? :)
No, if he existed and if he was as good a man as he is depicted being, I do not believe he was divinely inspired, as I don't accept the supernatural concept of divinity. Perhaps he was inspired by the faith of his people. I don't know what his motivations may have been. But I do believe they were his motivations, not his Dad's somehow beamed into his head.
Before you ask, I also don't believe the other theists I mentioned were inspired, just unusually decent people.
