Default Jesus was weak

If this was posted elsewhere, my apologies. Been awhile since I've really navigated this forum. :)

Jesus was weak

It's getting a lot of play on left-leaning websites, and I haven't completely vetted it, but it wouldn't surprise me.

The fact that cruelty is now a feature, not a bug, for a sizeable portion of Christians of all stripes in the United States, has to be troubling for the remainder.

Poor Pastor, all this time he was reading from the wrong bible but no one was willing to tell him.

The Sermon on the Mount, American Bible 1776 double eagle edition,
Jesus "We will not go quietly into the night!
We will not vanish without a fight!
We're going to live on!
We're going to survive!"
Today, we celebrate our Independence Day!

Angels, lock and load!

Jeff Sharlet's The Family features a bunch of prominent, highly connected right wing religious leaders that preach a masculine, burly, Capitalist Jesus that is against turning the other cheek. It doesn't really matter if goes against a literal interpretation of Jesus in the Bible, but it feels good, and it justifies this people being greedy, bigoted motherfuckers.

I gather this new form of "Christianity" has been gaining popularity amongst the hoi polloi.
