Scapegoat implies he wasn't also a pedophile.

The whole thing about Jesus is that he was without sin and that's why he could die for the sin of others. That's at least one Christology but the only one relevant here I guess. Not all Christians subscribe to the "Jesus died for our sin" idea but those who do basically say "he is out scapegoat"
