The same old question

John 7:14-36

Recently I received notification of a book called "How God became Jesus". I was intrigued by the title but irritated by what I read upon investigation.
The points raised seem reminiscent of the questions discussed by Jesus' listeners in today's reading.  However much we think we have progressed with our laptops and gsms or our cars and planes the fundamental questions of life and faith remain the same.
Where do I stand? Listening to Jesus and following his teaching.
