Jesus Was the Man

I think Jesus was the man, weather he existed or not, to me he stood as a symbol, begging the world to stop. Stop all the oppression's, heart ache and pain, there is a better life out there if you just followed his name. He taught people how to live, in the most simplistic way, separating wants from needs, living humbly day by day. Love thy follow man, for they not know what they do, only when you love there wrongs can you truly love you. Healing many hearts, bringing them from darkness to the light, through his beliefs and convictions he gave people back there sight. But I don't believe Jesus was religious, from it he would flee, for religion only trapped people where Jesus set them free Religion corrupted Jesus, it's corrupted his Holy name. they preach holy words for the good of man for it's own personal gain.
