Justifying the possible reality that this example of rage from Jesus influences young people in Christian homes to bully is in no way succeeding in having me to retract my statement. In this nation, violent video games, such as Grand Theft Auto, have been in discussion in regards to the possibility that games with such violent content are having a negative influence on our youth. It's a rather normal conclusion to consider when studying human behavior, the psyche and child development.
Your belief in your system has you to simply retort with " No, He's not a bully " and not once did I make the claim that Jesus was a bully. I'm simply stating that His actions very well may have had an influence on a young person who hasn't quite fully developed their comprehensive reading skills well enough to discern that this is not the example to follow due to the context of the situation Jesus was in, nonetheless, those actions still took place and that young person still knows of that episode of Jesus' life and because of that, possibly felt justified in being a bully due to lack of understanding.
Maybe it would be better to say that this is actually the case after asking the child referred to in the OP if this was indeed the case?
