    I’m curious: why do you think it’s more interesting, and why do you think the writers made a difference?

    I ask this in good faith (even though I’m an atheist), as I have my own interpretation of this topic and would be keen to know yours.

      I said “just as interesting,” to be a bit pedantic. But it’s interesting because I grew up a crazy form of fundamentalist Christian, which involved a lot of fuzzy support for Judaism, by definition, as well as political support based on Israel, because…uh…God or something.

      But this portion, referring to Jesus as a sinner, would cause conniptions in any evangelical church. But the idea of Jesus as a sinner is far more interesting than a perfect Jesus. Like Batman vs. Superman.
