Interesting, I’ve always wondered how American Christianity managed to be so right-wing despite being based on the idea of a rebellious, anti-materialist, proto-socialist, proto-hippie Middle-Eastern figure.
I’m not religious but was raised Christian so the contrast between their interpretation of Christianity and the “teachings of Christ” are baffling.

Medieval Christianity was already very removed from that figure tbf.
We were very removed from that figure when we nailed him to a cross and let him bleed out.
If you look as religion as padding for the ego instead of an idealistic pursuit, it makes all the more sense.
