Docetism (or Apollinarianism for people who like syllables) is basically the evil little brother of Arianism. 

While Arianism said that Jesus wasn't cool enough to be God, Docetism said that Jesus was too cool to be a human. It was an idea born in the shadow of Arianism's larger threat, but still created a troubling take on Jesus that the early church needed to sort out. 

Also, at around the 6:15 mark, I made the funniest joke of the ENTIRE series, and Thomas just flatlined me, man. I'm still hurt about it.
