Big article at The Daily Beast about Jesus' bathroom practices:
Why is everyone talking about this? Well there’s a lot at stake here. Much of early Christian theological debate is taken up with the issue of how Jesus is both a god and a human being. Early on there were some early Christians who thought that Jesus only “seemed” to have a human body but in reality was a god. You can see why Christians who held this position thought Jesus never went to the bathroom. This position, which is known as Doceticism, would come to be rejected as heresy, but those who wanted to argue that Jesus was truly human have to explain how the combination of humanity and divinity works. While they are doing that they are also trying to avoid the idea that the divinity in Jesus is somehow defiled by or corrupted by all the disgusting aspects of human bodies. Excrement, in particular, was just the kind of disgusting thing that people wanted to avoid.

He was human enough to die, so logically he was human enough to poop. Childish.

Got any evidence that Jesus was "human enough to die?" Nobody ever found a body. Plenty of people have been thought dead only to wake up days later. Mortuary science has come a long way in 2,000 years.

here is me, too, not very understandable. After all, he was a spirit or still human like all of us. Has anyone ever seen his body or his grave <spam link removed>? I know that there is a sheet in which it was wrapped, but where the grave itself..generally for me it's probably more of a fairy tale. Although who knows

What do you mean by spirit?
