    Did Jesus ever feel guilty?

    He being a sinless man, i hardly believe so. Yet i find it strange guilt, a kind of suffering, would never have hit him. If so, he didn't experiment this suffering of mankind, but through may be the massacre of innocent babies, at his birth, or, still, as regards Juda he didn't save. How...

    Joseph, Mary, and Gabriel

    is the sense of decency modesty-related?

    It's the more often the case that people use the word:"decency" as a synonym for "modesty". I agree being modest leads them to choose decency, and on the level of one's emotion displaying, too.

Of course, stemming from the victory over temptations, it follows the more grown-up is Christ, since he gets off sin. I just ask for your opinion: Do you believe the more they...

    It's not simply a joke: Our human ordinary mind the more often pretends that struggling against each others to make one's living is a moral behaviour to adopt. All right, but do you think it is Christ's mind and spirit?
