I don't know who Colin Bodayle is, but from the responses he got from his students I think he is located in the US. There is rot in the US culture that's too deep, Trump is just it surfacing. Greed, individualism and selfishness are considered virtues, I noticed it when talking to coworkers there through the years. If Jesus ever went to the US he'd be crucified that is if he wasn't arrested at the border by ICE for being a Palestinian. The US claims to be a Christian nation, yet it is the furthest from it. What good is your religion if it doesn't make you do good? What good is your religion if it doesn't make you overcome your selfishness and greed?

Yeah, it's the fruit of almost a century of anti-communist propaganda.

To be fair over many many centuries, Christians aren't exactly very following of the ways of Christ.

Yeah, it's what led me to leave the faith. What I read in the NT wasn't what was practiced in the church.
