As a Christian, I feel compelled to point out that much of what passes for "Christianity" today does not align very well with the recorded teachings and actions of Jesus. Historical Jesus was quite vocal that what mattered most was caring for the poor and the outcast, and he spent much of his time with the sick and powerless. He avoided traditional power structures, even though the people of the time expected their "messiah" to act like a powerful king - instead of dying the most shameful death as he did. | ||
