    Because a lot of modern day Christianity believes in “Jesus” but doesn’t follow any of his teachings…fake Christians. Just using the name to help get what they want

      fake Christians

      All believers say the same of all the other N-1 Christian sects. As an atheist myself, I just point at all of them and laugh.

        No, this isn’t that at all. You either follow the teachings of Jesus or you don’t. Fake Christians say they love Jesus then speak and act against his lessons. Pretending otherwise shows that you don’t know much about the things you ridicule.

        My issues with Christianity come from the deliberate misinterpretations of the bible but what Jesus actually had to say was pretty good stuff.

          Fake Christians say they love Jesus then speak and act against his lessons.

          Atheists shouldn’t be in the business of gatekeeping Christians. It’s all bullshit anyway.

          what the likely fictional character calledJesus actually had to say

          I have an issue in principle with believing bullshit. I don’t care if the purported teachings were “good” (they mostly weren’t), the foundation is tainted.
