The Vatican has miles of archives just to name one source. Do you have access, no. Do you know ancient Hellenistic Greek or Hebrew, Aramaic, Coptic, etc. to warrant granting access to study? No.
I belong to a host of Orders and Societies that keep the secret stream and pass that knowledge to the next generation.
The records we do have, reliable or not, show what they should be following. Certain versions of the source material even set his words in a different color for clarification. They do not follow these super basic teachings of “be kind to everyone”, “be kind to strangers to your land especially since you were once strangers”, “don’t listen to people who try to lead with fear mongering”, “help those who are less fortunate instead of following fortune”, etc
We can debate the reliability of the sources for the teachings but that is the standard they themselves say they follow. And they do not.
Hateful, stupid, ignorant, reject reality,
Sounds like a religious bunch to me
I get they call themselves Christian, but let us not pretend they follow any teachings of Christ

Yes we do… you may not
Id be fascinated to hear what record you claim there is.

Things the character of jesus did in the bible:
Looks like trumps following Jesus’s actions pretty well.
Although it’s not traditional, it still is a religion. Only difference is title.
They’re the same as Islamic extremists, uncannily in every single way, like it’s intentional.
