Gay rights within the template of religion proves flaws in "religion"

What's to say that's real Christianity? I say its corrupted Christianity used to keep citizens in line during the dark ages.
It's called CHRIST-ianity. Based on the ideas of CHRIST, not the early hebrews. We follow CHRIST. I know he said law won't be erased, but he was talking about ten commandments, because he DID break laws like the sabbath law.

Let's imagine for a moment Jesus really existed and came back in modern times. Would he hold the confederate flag for slavery? Would he stone gays? Did he not stop the woman from being killed by stoning? Do you think he would beat his wife if he had one? Do you think he would scold/ deny her permission if she wanted to . . . Become a scholar, wanted a degree, get a job. Would he beat her.

NO! He wouldn't do any of that. THAT'S what we are to live by. THAT'S what real Christianity is! The Christianity of the middle ages was nothing more than a way of control

What are your standards for deciding what real Christianity is?
How do you know what Christ is like?

The only thing I know for certain is that if he existed it was a long time ago. So when I imagine him showing up now, I always picture him being so caught up and amazed by the food and technology that he wouldn't even notice how people were living. I imagine him walking around like a large child with a confused and excited look on his face being amazed and surprised by everything he sees. I also imagine he'd have a pretty bad case of diarrhea due to the food being so different from what he is used to.

What are my standards for deciding? Okay
1) look at the most devoted Christian you know. Perhaps a priest or a layman?
Does he/ would he- defend rape, throw stones at a prostitute, beat his wife, EVEN if there was no law against it?
if Christians don't do all that, they're not faithful. Because they're not following Christian law. But that's not the case. Would you say they aren't Christians? There is nothing wrong about any faith. It's the people on top who guide the people below them to do bad things in the name of religion.

Now why do I believe in gospel accounts and letters 2000 years old? Because they not only showed what he did but also what others did for their belief in him. Who would die for something false? (note I'm writing about before the new testament) they did die, and many Jews were Christian even before Paul went to Rome. You can't say that Acts didn't happen (Christianity had to have SOME beginning)
The letters and gospels and acts may have come later simply because they felt writing it down would allow more people to learn. (It us explicitly said that the gospel of luke was written for that reason alone)

Ps- and seriously, connecting present day christians to murderous christians in middle ages is like comparing modern romans to ancient romans who gathered to watch lions eat people up
