When a group of boys made fun of Elisha the prophet in Bethel for being bald, God became angered and sent two bears down two viciously attack and kill them. The moral of the story is not to make fun of people, particularly bald prophets.
The lesson of Jesus is, if you speak truthfully you'll be disowned by most of the people that held you up to be the messiah.
A dead god is a good god, and none understand that better than those who profess to be the living manifestation of God's agency.
