Jesus is quoted to say in the Bible:
He among you who is without sin, let him cast the first stone
Everyone fell in silence and cast away their stones and started dispersing.
Jesus answered well the inquiring crowd but one might wonder if what he said also applies to him?
Was Jesus without sin? If so, why he did not cast the first stone according to the law?
Was Jesus not a child? Was he not mischievous?
Every kid is mischievous, that is part of growing up, including Jesus. I remember when I was in my childhood and preteen years, how my parents and society kept haunting me as a sinner for doing anything that they don’t agree with. Do you want to convince me that the teen Jesus did not give headaches to his parents or caused problems?
No wonder that the Bibles we have in circulations exclude his childhood stories. Those who control the populace from behind the scenes had a different agenda: they wanted to portray Jesus as being perfect and everyone else is born a sinner and can never be perfect.
In all cases, remember this:
Do as we say, not as we do
No one is perfect on Earth. Everyone errs, and that is not the end of the world.
