2000 years of Christian first hand experience of His grace has shown that He is greater than a man. It is only those who have never tasted His love that believe Him to be an enlightened man.
Just think of all those billions of people who have worshipped Him over the years. There are hardly any who suddenly say "wait, Jesus is not God. He is only a man!" Experience of Him is the point here. Once you have tasted Him you KNOW.

Jesus was definitely ' Enlightened '
John 8:12
Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, "I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life."
Samuel 22:29
For You are my lamp, O LORD; And the LORD illumines my darkness.
Isaiah 9:2
The people who walk in darkness Will see a great light; Those who live in a dark land, The light will shine on them.
Daniel 2:22
It is He who reveals the profound and hidden things; He knows what is in the darkness, And the light dwells with Him.
John 1:9
There was the true Light which, coming into the world, enlightens every man
Acts 13:47
For so the Lord has commanded us, 'I HAVE PLACED YOU AS A LIGHT FOR THE GENTILES, THAT YOU MAY BRING SALVATION TO THE END OF THE EARTH.
And many more Verses if you do a little research
No silliness at all.
