No-one seems to notice that what Jesus preaches is essentially Buddhism. He is telling you that you must give up and detach from everything to pursue the Kingdom of God, which, he says elsewhere, is within you. There is no such thing as Christian Family Values. There is no Christian family. You must do as the apostles did and leave everything, immediately. Look how when they were called, they just dropped everything, dropped their nets, their fish, their amazed families, and walked off with a total stranger.
Interestingly, Charles Manson had the same effect. His follower Pat Krenwinkel left her car, paycheck, everything and followed him, so did many more, and he preached the same kind of things, about appreciating nature and living day by day, trusting that food and shelter will turn up, which it did. People believed Charlie was Christ then, he gave off so much love mixed with so much force.
