Not at all. As I've always said, I don't think Jesus was a bad guy, and his teachings alone are pretty much in line with universal truth. It's the perversion of organized religion and politics that got in the way of something that's essentially good, as it usually tends to do.

AMEN! I wish more people understood that it's not about the damn church.... it's about treating others with respect.

Respect doesn't mean you have to agree with their views. You might even think they are idiots. But you have no right to interfere with their lives....not even to "save" them.
