my disagreements with the Christian community at large are a big part (but not the only part) of why I'm no longer a Christian. The guy I read about and the guy they seem to be thinking of are two different people.

Same. I still remember the day that I basically paraphrased a Jesus quote in a discussion of current events with my family, and someone asked me if I was some kind of communist and multiple others piled on with no one coming to my defense.

Apparently, actually believing the shit they taught me makes me some kind of radical...

Jesus was a communist and any Christian who believes the teachings of Jesus is a communist too.

Yeah, but they said it like it was an insult.

Well that's because they hate Jesus.
