Besides that, in the bible is says at one point that jesus grew in wisdom and in god's favor. Wouldn't that imply that at one point he was flawed? How could an infallible being improve? Secondly, even if you dislike a religion that's no reason to disrespect them. If you recall jesus says: "This is my commandment, That ye love one another"
