According to the idealistic story described in the bible, Jesus, had only a "good fight" in his mind, no selfishness. He wanted only selflessness and even trough lies wanted to provoke as many people as possible to join his path.

Story is pretty, like superman fairy tale is.

How do you come to this interpretation?
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
