Jesus Christ was/is the ONLY begotten Son of Almighty God, the God of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob. Jesus Christ was born Holy, perfect, pure, and sinless. He remained so His entire life on earth.

No one human being, no troop, and no country of people had the ability and/or the power to "torture, beat, and put Jesus Christ on the cross, much less drive nails through His hands." Jesus WILLINGLY subjected Himself to the torture, the beatings, the crucifixion, & His death on Calvary's cross because HE knew HE was the ONLY pure, perfect, holy, and sinless sacrifice that Almighty God could accept as payment for ALL the sins of ALL mankind to have been born or to be born in the future, until the end of time.

The King James Version of The Holy Bible, was translated by a collaborative group of the most renown and most educated of theological scholars who also knew the Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic languages. The KJV of The Holy Bible is the truest, & most account translation to be ever written.

Jesus was without sin. Take a couple of hours out of that busy schedule and please read the Book of John. Please.
The Pope is human, therefore he was born with sin, and not holy. Swiss cheese is holey (meaning with holes) Only Jesus is perfect.

Wow, this has to be a joke, because otherwise, you're remarkably stupid. Actually, the oldest manuscripts that refer to Christ are in Greek (Koine Greek, to be specific), not Aramaic, and they us the word "Άγιος", which is usually translated as "holy", not anything based on "ωπε", which would be the Greek word meaning "hole" or "holes". Thus, your feeble attempt at humor falls entirely flat in the face of real knowledge.

He was holy before His mother was conceived, before the earth cooled, and before your ignorance matured.

this is really insulting. Never talk about Jesus like that, even if you dont believe in him.
