What do you feel he would be unhappy with? Happy with? Do you feel that He would be content with the Catholic church accurately or inaccurately portraying what He had been set on earth to accomplish?

I think he'd be appaled at what is being done in "his name." I honestly wish he would come back and clarify his teachings for all his ignorant followers. (I'm not a christian, btw)

I think he'd be dissapointed that its become too rich and dogmatic. However i dont think he'd be happy with the so-called evangelical chritianity either that george bush (supposedly) adheres to and wars being waged in his name.
I grew up a catholic and visited Rome, i thought it wrong for the head of the church to live in such riches, Jesus wouldnt have lived humbly and gave his gold to the poor. I also found the Catholic church very sexist and see women as servants to men and men servants to God...oh and waaaay to much guilt. He wanted us to be happy.

I would think that he'd have some very serious questions about the wealth that the Vatican has accumulated, while people (including a great many Christans) around the world die from hunger and preventable disease. I don't think a city full of gold was what he had in mind to represent his teachings...but that's just me

I'm sure that Jesus would have an absolute whale of a time at the Catholic church near me when they have their casino night. I could just picture him in there throwing down bets on the crap table and roulette wheel.

I'm sure He would be appalled at the praying to Mary and saints, adding to the bible, changing dates, forbidding priests to marry and all the extra man made rites that Catholic church has established.

Jesus is already King in heaven, sitting at the right-hand side of God and sees what's going on. God has appointed Christ as head of the Christian congregation, not the Pope.
I think that answers the rest of the questions.

The catholics spured on the crusades in the name of Christ. I don't think Jesus is too happy about that one. Jesus is love not hatred of others based on their religion.

Well , if He asked the catholic church why they had gone so far from the truth ; the popes and priests could show him their catachetism ? and canons , then try to argue with Christ why they thought they were correct .

At God's due time, he will have human political leaders give power and authority to the United Nations to turn on and destroy all false religious institutions. This would include any and all faiths that have deviated from true Christianity, both by their teachings and their actions.

Jesus Christ has been a Christian (aka a Protestant) for 500 years.
The false European Pope is as corrupt as pagans - heathens - the Vikings - barbarians are.
