I see what you mean.

Do you? Why, because YOU equate all teachings as the same?

But did Jesus?

“Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”

Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Matthew 22:36-40

But don't worry, when He said "All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments," He didn't MEAN "ALL the Law and the Prophets HANG ON these two commandments."

What he meant, as you well know, is to scare people with the law, batter them with the law, destroy them with the law, and then toss them aside into the hell THEY CHOSE. What He meant is that He taught NOTHING about any obligation YOU might have in HOW you teach - just recite the Book to them, the harder the better.
