Exactly, like all religions anybody can dig into the texts and find a justification for their personal and political views but the Jesus I was brought up with, while I don't believe he existed, had some pretty decent key points (forgiveness, love, sharing, empathy, charity...). These contrast strongly with the judgemental, conservative, nationalist, racist "Christians".
They would probably have hung this "rebellious, commie jew" themselves today if their much-awaited second coming had taken place.
