Matthew 25:41-45: Jesus said “‘Away with you, you cursed ones, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his demons. For I was hungry, and you didn’t feed me. I was thirsty, and you didn’t give me a drink. I was a stranger, and you didn’t invite me into your home. … Then they will reply, ‘Lord, when did we ever see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and not help you?’ And [I] will answer, ‘… when you refused to help the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were refusing to help me.’”
I am an atheist partly because in my single digit youth I could already see the gluttony and self-serving nature of my church building gilded shrines as people went hungry. I’ve since embraced more cogent reasons, but Jesus Christ as a person or a fictionial character was a communist humanist that I would like to believe I’d enjoy the company of.
Modern American Conservatives would crucify him again if he returned espousing the same lessons and condemnations.
