Question for Yahya

Yahya,

As I've said previously, practically everything I've studied in Islam has been from a Sunni perspective. In fact, I know far more about Ahmadi Muslims than I know about Shia Muslims. I was wondering if Shias have the same beliefs about Jesus' last days on earth that Sunnis have. Do you believe that Jesus wasn't crucified? If so, do you believe that Judas took his place? (By "you" I mean Shias in general.) Or are there competing beliefs?
