This is what I've been trying to figure out for so long!! I couldn't find the words, but you totally did. I was brought up in, and still attend, the Church of the Brethren. It's of the Anabaptist faith. We're pacifists. We're big on service and taking care of our fellow humans. I could never figure out why people who call themselves Christians were so against the Jesus I know. This explains so much.

Not a Christian but this makes so much sense to me. Thank you for putting into words something that has been scratching at the back of my brain.
