I do remember one time a pastor discouraged me from rebuking people by quoting Revelations "He that lives by the sword shall die by the sword". That was a strange exchange.

I don't consider Revelation to be inspired because there are many problems with it, which we can get into if you like. But it could have been written by Paul, too.

The point is, the gospels are not useful for being mean to people, unless you completely disregard the sermon on the mount, which is not the foundation for churches because it demands that we love our enemies and bless those that curse us, turn the other cheek and give to him that asketh.

In fact, Christianity is better without Paul, because one is emboldened to do the will of God, rather than do nothing, which is the norm for most churches: sit in the pew, listen, don't speak, put money in the plate, shake the pastor's hand, put up chairs, go home. It's become a nightmare, but it hardly reflects the guidance of the Messiah.

You misunderstand me.  I literally don’t get Christianity in the sense that I haven’t studied it and don’t know the characters and their ideas etc.
