Quote:It doesn't matter if you think he was "perfect." He was still a man.


You hit one of the many paradoxes in Christianity :

Jesus is seen as God AND man. However---

If he was perfect and could not sin,then he was not a man. ALL men are sinners according to Christianity. To claim Jesus was the exception is special pleading.

If he sinned, he was not God,as God is perfect by definition.
