"Liar, Lunatic or Lord" arguement: leaves out possibilities. Fiction? Myth? What if Jesus never lied but the Gospel writers did? As I told one annoying person, "I'm not saying Jesus is a liar, I'm saying the guy claiming to be Mathew a liar. After all, we already know it wasn't Mathew, and if he lied about his own name what else did he lie about?" In societies where Christianity is a major force, there is also a nasty, manipulative undertone of, "The President, most major elected officials, many of your friends, your boss and the next cop to stop you for speeding would probably all say, 'Lord,' so think verrrrrry carefully before you answer."
