><>...Dear Haq...><>

For the most part what you have said is true, however, Jesus was a man of peace and reason. He drew crowds because of his peaceful approach to situations. He was a powerful charismatic leader who spoke of love and forgiveness. Also according to the bible, he healed the sick and gave life to the dead,and performed miracles of small and great magnitude. He had the right to do at the temple what the bible (if it is to be believed) said he did.

Again my friend, if the bible is true....he was himself God.

It is a very popular event used from the bible when christians need an excuse for their bad behavior....I have in the past, used it myself.

Jesus's action was righteous indignation.! The ordinary man does not do well when he tries to assert that trait... and I don't believe that we have earned it.

Losing my temper is just that. Losing my temper. Very unbecoming in anyone.. It should not be excused or especially justified and paralleled with anything Jesus may have had cause to do or say.

Don't get me wrong Haq....I still lose my temper... but a lot less...and now when I do ....I just apologize.

Be well my friend
Shalom...><>
PS You are a good man Haq and I enjoy talking with you.
BTW Haq, how long ago did you too lose your son?. I am so sorry for your loss too. It is the most tragic thing that could ever happen to anyone. My sympathies are with you. My saving greace is this....I had only one child....It could never happen again to me.
