Yes, I am still befuddled/bewildered about how some atheists/agnostics like Jesus and think he was a "wise" person. I have a list, and yes I got my fist college degree from a xian college, of sayings from the NT that are ascribed to him that are not good and are also contradictory. I will also add that I am also an "agnostic" on the existence of the "biblical" existence of Jesus.

as facebookers like to say, it's complicated.

first of all, jesus, as labeled, if he existed (in which case his name certainly wasn't jesus, which is a greek name) was a jew. second of all, the people who wrote about what he purportedly said and did never met jesus. third of all, even the stuff written by those folks who never met him apparently wasn't even written by them, which means it was written by people who never met the people who never met jesus but who are credited with saying all the stuff they couldn't possibly know about jesus to begin with. so let's go back to his being jewish. if people were really all so hot on jesus, they'd be jews!

My dad is a Fox News loving, right wing evangelical. I can’t get a rational justification of his blind loyalty to the GOP. Based on his belief in Christ and his teachings, you would think they would all be independents at the least.

Jesus loves you, that's why he's coming back to kill everyone.

No. Why, they are told everything they need to know.

If they did they do not apply it!

I rejoined my family's faith because I was so appalled by the horrors spread by the Holy Rollers.

Whatever ideals the so-called "Christians" who support the modern arc--not to mention current agenda--of the Republican Party may have had have been steamrolled by sheer lust for power and personal gain, not to mention hatred of anyone who's not with their program. Too many are throwing around scripture to justify their bigotry, or ignoring the words of their so-called savior altogether. To paraphrase John Fugelsang: Trump may not be the anti-Christ, but Christ is certainly the anti-Trump.

Christianity is a dangerous cult. End. Of. Story.
