It's just not our story, and the religion had changed completely from
what it was at the time.

The early Christians came out of the movement that led to the writing
of the Dead Sea Scrolls. This was a break-away from Judaism that had
attempted to Hellenize (what with the huge temple) and prosyletize.

We got it very very wrong. We're not supposed to convert the masses and
we're not supposed to prove that our God is bigger than your God based
on who has the bigger temple.

Sermon on the Mount? Not for us. We're supposed to be small time, except
for parts of New York.
