Famous Quote from Benjamin Franklin 

"As to Jesus of Nazareth, my opinion of whom you particularly desire,
I think the system of Morals and his Religion, as he left them to us,
the best the World ever saw or is likely to see; but I apprehend it has
received various corrupting Changes; and I have, with most of the
present Dissenters in England, some doubts as to his divinity."
