Christianity is virtually always represented by those who either don’t understand it, or are deliberately slandering it.

They’re deliberately slandering it because they understand it, and it’s history.

If your understanding of Christianity is based upon how well mainstream Christianity understands it, then you don’t actually understand it, only the warped form that it takes after thousands of years of infighting and political manoeuvring. For example, did you know that at one point it was actually taboo to depict Christ as a human?

all religions change. The gnostics were my favorite offshoot because it seems more believable than God being good after committing multiple genocides.

… I think you’re confusing the false god “Forethought” with the real God from gnostic writings.
