what was being discussed was CHRIST and KRSNA in the link above, we thought the comments here by JESUS, and PRABHUPADA were interesting....

NOTE: What is being discussed above is the caste system. Briefly, it consists of 1) brahmana as the priestly or first class persons, 2) Kshatriya's or warriors as second class, 3) Vaishya's or farmers and mercantile workers (including businessmen), and lastly 4) Shurdra's or the laborers. While it can be noticed that even if such names are removed, these different natured persons exist in all societies, the kali yuga caste system is about rubber stamp everyone according to birth and not giving credit according to qualification. Thus, no one was allowed to learn how to elevate themselves. Prabhupada has spoken out strongly against this. He has always taught that anyone can elevate themselves who has the desire to do so.

Now, Jesus was not against all brahmana's, only those under the bodily concept of life. For that matter, Jesus himself studied under (qualified) brahmanas. Here is an excerpt from "The Life of St. Issa," a book almost identical to this excerpt "The Lost Years." Many translations are exactly the same, only that there are more details:
