If Jesus Christ Himself Became a Member of Red Hot Pawn...
1) What would He choose for a Site Nickname, Location and Self Proclaimed Forum Title? 2) What would we see as His first three thread topics? 3) What tone and atmosphere would His presence create? 4) Would He treat all posters respectfully? 5) What if any questions would you ask Him in public or in Personal Messages? 6) What would His chess rating be? 7) Other?
"1) What would He choose for a Site Nickname?"
The G/M [God/Man: Undiminished Deity and Perfect Humanity in One Person Forever]

If he got the highest rating then he would be a cheat.

as of [b]the only begotten [uniquely born] from the Father, full of grace and truth."

Ghost of a Duke, I like your nimble exploratory play of mind. What is the most intelligent chess engine available today?
The most intelligent is a human being.
A chess engine is not necessarily intelligent, just good at chess.

Please clarify your premise, reasoning and the basis of these conclusions. Thanks,

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyExternal assistance is prohibited in chess, this includes seeking help from another person, computer engine or Holy Father. (Hey, i didn't write the rules). Due to the Triune nature of Jesus, each of his moves would therefore be illegal as he couldn't help but get input from the Father and Holy Spirit. (Which of course would be unfair to his opponent who wasn't part of a trinity).

A man who sacrificed himself for the sake of humanity would have few qualms in sacrificing his queen for a pawn. (Noble perhaps, but a real game loser).
Originally posted by Ghost of a Duke"The G/M" Himself is omniscient; if "sacrificing his [white or black] queen for a pawn" was the correct move

He'd make it without hesitation. I'd like to team up with you to play a game with Him: two out of three... lol.
