    The Jewish theocracy was involved in his murder. So, he apparently said and did a lot of things they didn’t agree with.

    This is the opposite of what the biblical Jesus did.

    Says pay taxes to Rome.

    Calls religious leaders a brood of vipers.

      No, he pointed to Roman coins and said to a Roman spy to “Render unto Caesar’s what is Caesar’s,” and was eventually executed for treason and being generally obnoxious to the Romans.

      A sceptical sort might note that, to a rebellious territory that would launch a massive, religiously rooted revolt a few decades after his assumed death, while his new cult had spread like wildfire, “What is Caesar’s” might have two answers to a conquered subject and a Roman.

      You might also ask yourself if the Roman Church might have downplayed certain aspects of his life while proselytizing and becoming part of the imperial establishment.
