That still doesn't answer my question about why Allah would exalt Jesus to a place above Mohammed. Even if you allow that Jesus didn't die, but was taken up to heaven, and even if you believe Mohammed is there now as well, (though are his bones still in the cave where he was buried?) then why did Allah give him the exalted position over mohammed?
Why would Allah also say he was setting all those who believe in Jesus, above those who don't believ?. Surely Allah in His omniscience would have known that a group of believers would be around who would exalt Jesus.. yet He encourages it when He says in this Surah ".. I am setting those who follow thee, above those who disbelief until the Day of Resurrection".
I have more comments and questions, but I'll ask you these questions first then we can continue. Thanks for answering.

When did i say this?

erm try cause Jesus is a prophet!!??!? if you dont believe in Jesus (pbuh) then you are Kafir!!!
When did Allah give Jesus (pauh) an exalted position? God tells us in the Qur'an all prophets are equal before him.
anyone who places Jesus (pbuh) in a false position of authority is not a follower of him. A follower of Jesus follows EXACTLY what jesus said and did, we dont know exactly what he said and did, individuals have adapted the situations descriptions and biographies.
