As you mentioned in your writing, this is truly vile and blasphemous, and it’s almost unimaginable that anyone could subscribe to such a view of Jesus. It reminds me once again of Romans 1:24-25 (NKJV), where it says, “Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator.” This is a sobering reminder of the depravity in the world, where people would love a god that fits into our mold and worldview to justify ourselves in our own perversion. Stripping Christ of His divinity, I believe, is so often an attempt to justify our own brokenness, giving us permission to continue in our sin, sometimes, sin that we love. May the Lord bring revelation and truth to shine through hearts in need of His mercy.
