Jesus being Angry

I get a sadness when I read about all the people making excuses for the fact that Jesus got ticked off.  How stupid.  Is it a matter of faith for you if Jesus went off your image of him walking around softly in soft slippers"  I hope not.  Considering the apparent thick-headedness of the disciples which is recorded many times, Jesus must have been irritated a lot.  After all, he was true man....and men get irritated.  So deal with it.  Maybe he didn't like the smell of manure.  Maybe he didn't like the cheating of some of the moneychangers, maybe he just had a bad breakfast.  Is you faith that shallow that you in all your piety can't take in the fact that our loving God is also a jealous, angry, wagering God.  We have been so sold on the love side of God that we have seemingly forgotten the fact that he has standards (law) and we need to obey them or get busted by God.  Blessings.
