Christ had a state of mind- divine mind. Christianity is NOT a religion it is that state of mind- Those who treat Christianity as a kind of club and religion or feel part of a force to be reckoned with, have missed the mark. Every real Christian should feel as if he or she are the last Christian- It is a lonely state of mind that dares to embrace and live in reality (truth)...Seeing that the world runs on deception and illusion...being a true Christian makes you in the true world but not off this world..You are alien..You may as well be from another dimension. The real deal is not for the faint of heart..Never submit- never surrender and never give up your faith even under the pain of death- It is a committed state of mind that is like an eternal rock...few dare..be cut from the herd of man...to stand alone under God.
Even the Bible God is not Christ-like, considering the genocide he ordered, along with the rape of virgins, infanticide, and the killing of innocent people who simply disagreed with him. The NT Jesus would not approve of these acts.
Unfortunately, the myth of Jesus did change history, in many ways for the worse, considering the Inquisition, the Salem Witch Trials, and other killings in the name of Christianity.

What about all the good that Christ spawned? Many of our greatest universities were started in the name of Christ. Hospitals, the same.
The pre-Christian Pagan world like Greece first started hospitals, and institutions of higher learning
I didn't say Christianity started these institutions. I said Jesus spawned many of our great universities and hospitals. Also, many charitable organizations were started in the name of Christ.

They are too busy working to help others to have time to sit around and judge and hate. They aren't going to be the fanciest people or the best dressed or up on the latest gadgets and must-haves or driving the fanciest cars. They will be humble people and they will not be perfect people, but if you look in their eyes and at their faces, you might see Christ.
Guess I should stay out of church too because they aren't there either . I'll try this shelters and soup kitchens
