Jesus caused much upset among the Pharisees and teachers of the time by doing many things they considered blashemous. In Matthew ch 9 and Mark 2 Jesus forgave the sins of a paralytic man, in Matthew 16 and Mark 8 Jesus preached that people should be on their guard against the teachings of the Pharisees and Sadducees using yeast as the example, and in Matthew 21 Jesus he entered the temple area and drove out all who were buying and selling there. The last example I will give you is from John 9 where Jesus was set a trap by the teachers of the time. He cured a blind man of his sight on the Sabbath, a day that is holy and should not be used to heal or do work of any kind. This gave them ammunition to have Jesus put to death but he escaped.
These examples show that Jesus was an inflammatory person during that time but also he was God's son on earth so was not subject to the powers of the land but answered instead to God.

Yes. Yes he was responsible. You see, he was a great man to sink a pint, and he would get a little garrulous, to say the least. Harmless enough you might say, but in Roman-occupied Judaea, careless words cost lives, and the landlord of the Crown of Thorns on Via Dolorosa, well, he was on the payroll of the Consulate. need I say more?

What conflict and what arguments. Let's go back to the begging. Read again from Matthew up to Revelations and this time take your own quilt feelings out of the equation. Jesus did not have any arguments at all He always stated the TRUTH

He took on the religious leaders of his day, he called them hypocrites etc. he didn't observe the Sabbath, he took on the vested interests in the Temple (moneychangers etc.), he made friends with tax collectors, Romans and sinners and he preached to gentiles (non-Jews).
All of this enraged the Jewish religious authorities and so they set out to kill him, which resulted in the conflict and his arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane. Hope this helps you.

Your question is invalid as it assumes the existence of a mythical being. No Jesus so no argument so no conflict.
