I think only you know what the point that was made is. Cause I definitely don't get the point you were making.
We all change the world all the time just by being here. I don't so much want to change the world, I want to help people and animals and sometimes that requires being honest and saying tough things when people earn it by their choices.
And you cite Jesus, whether he truly existed or not he was no stranger to strong language. So..To berate me for doing what Jesus did and then telling me to be more like Jesus, is.. A bit contradictory.
“You blind fools!” he shouts during a chapter-long rant (Matthew 23:17). He calls them hypocrites, snakes and vipers, everything — as the saying goes — but a child of God. We all know that insulting people is incompatible with Christian teaching. But Jesus actually did it quite a bit."
How can you be so sure, that you are right and they are wrong?

How can you be so sure Jesus was right or that he even existed?
Unlike in regards to ancient stories that happened thousands of years ago or more, I can see a lot of this in front of me, right now. It's a present thing.
In regards to how right my position is in terms of government and religion and philosophy that's debatable, but I don't think it's very debatable that a good amount of people or even the majority are brainwashed in various ways. I could go into many real time examples that are happening currently, whether you fall on the left or right side of the paradigm or somewhere in between in terms of political parties, however I don't really get the impression you are genuine in the sense that you want me to try to prove my point, I more get the feeling you just want to argue and try to knock me down a peg because we disagree in certain areas.

Most of the people in my family and most of my friends, they are brainwashed in various ways. I try to help them, and they are usually open minded to what I say and generally agree with me, though ultimately revert back to their programming.
I would admit even I am brainwashed in various ways, i think almost all of us are.. Just some definitely are worse than others.

Don't you think "brainwashed" is a bit too harsh? I mean we are all somewhat manipulated, for example to like that brown sugared water, but maybe, and this is what I am trying to tell you, you are taking it too hard.
