If Jesus was such a kind, generous, loving man, why did he refuse to help until the Canaanite woman prostrated herself before him and accepted the lowly comparison he made of her to a dog? That sure doesn't seem too kindly of the only person ever claimed to have been born and lived without sin.
Yeah. I'm also a bit disturbed by his apparent attitude in this story. It seems out of character; maybe he was having a bad day, but it does reinforce my belief that the scriptures are true. If someone was trying to make a fictional Jesus appear perfectly kindly, he wouldn't have portrayed him in this way. This story makes him appear more human.
