If you want to be a decent human being, you have to ignore large swathes of the Bible, including things Jesus says in it. Unless you think slavery is acceptable, for example. Left leaning Christians ignore the bad stuff, and right leaning Christians ignore the good stuff.

Also personal rights.
Also responsible economics.
Also patriotism.
Also small government.
Also state rights.
Also going after pedophiles and murders.
They really hate all the things they claim to love.
Christian teachings might be the thing they hate the most though.

They call those Christian teachings "wokeness" these days.

Should add “unless it inconveniences you” after every one of them

Evangelical Christianity is nothing but a malleable garment that we use to dress up and cover whatever bigotries we want to preserve in our society.

The Christian left is quite large and active, but it doesn't attract media attention. Treating everyone like human beings and trying to help those in need isn't nearly as interesting as spewing mindless hatred and engaging in constant hypocrisy. Those who follow "Republican Jesus" make for better entertainment.

Not to mention that being humble and reserved are values that are strongly emphasized by Jesus, so people actually trying to follow his teachings won't usually be the vocal, obvious ones.

Shouldn't the ad recommend a remedy?
Ask your doctor if sterilization is right for you.

A lobotomy also works, one of the few cases where patients actually become smarter.

The teachings of Jesus didn't survive Rome without losing much in the process (some might even say it lost its own soul, as faith became something you "believed" and not something that is only visible through ones actions), what made you think they would even be recognizable in the US? 🤷
Honestly, all around the world people are selfish, immature and functionally illiterate. The majority of so called believers have never read any scripture at all, and I will never understand those people. The lights are definitely off in their mind shacks...

Ignore? It seems like these guys willfully try to contradict them.

"Christian left" 🙄
Where'd they go?
I mean, Jesus was an anti-imperialist Jewish preacher who hung out with 'indesirables' and begged people to love each other as much as they love themselves. He's like the proto-leftist, lol.
Jesus is the mascot, Paul is the quarterback, head coach, and general manager.
Most Christians actually worship Paul.
That guy was so woke.
