Jesus' exclusivity is only important if people take it to be important. C.S. Lewis seems to think its important. To me, it's not that significant, except insofar as we are trying to figure out who Jesus was in his historical context.

It's not entirely clear to me what Jesus' message is and even less clear if it's important. I was asking my sister-in-law last week what was so significant about Jesus. She thought his healing miracles were pretty important. I don't see their relevance. Even if Jesus was performing miracles today, I'd still prefer to visit a doctor over a miracle worker.
