Surely there are examples (of which I am aware of a few), but they do not take from his overall teachings. I'm not the devoted Christian that the other commenter mistakenly views me as, but someone who understands the gist of the New Testament because I was forced into Christian High School and studied the Bible as a whole. It was a subject that I was graded on, so I'd like to say I probably understand the general themes better than most.
Although I do repress a lot from that time and I suffered multiple TBIs, so maybe I'm completely off-base. I don't believe that I am, though.
The gist of the New Testament is "everyone thinks the old God is vengeful and mean, so we're gonna send a new one down to rehab his image, but in reality, he's (literally) still the same old vengeful bastard who condones violence, rape, and killing, but somehow got billions of people to look the other way on that because he says love thy neighbor once"
That's what I get from my reading of it anyways
I mostly agree with you here.
