He said: “Jesus said all kinds of stuff that I’m a complete supporter of. If the Church had taken notice of what Jesus had said the world would be a much better place.
This actually just proves that he never actually read what Jesus said except for snippets that he’s heard 2nd hand.
If anything the Church tend to water down Jesus to make him more appealing to the regular folks. The real Jesus is actually much harsher.
This is, after all, the one who said things like “And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell.” and “Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division.”
“Jesus isn’t going to come back looking like Ted Nugent....no, he’s going to look like Charles Bronson...and he’s going to be gd’d pissed off.” - Robin Williams.
