I don't think Jesus every claimed to be the son of God or believed he was. That was all invented by the people who wrote the new testimate. As mentioned here before, Christianity is a religion about Jesus - not the religion Jesus was teaching.
So.... I think you can believe in what Jesus was teaching without having to believe Jesus was the son of God or any thing else that goes along with the new testimate. Just because you don't believe the son of God issue does not mean you can't go to a Christian church and pick up some of the teachings of Jesus. He was a very enlightened dude and had some good stuff to say.
You could also go see Godspell. It does a better job getting the point across in a much more entertaining fashion.
That is the way I reconcile all this.
