Christians messed up big time through history, and those people were self righteous morons, and not true christians in my eyes. But if thats your view of christians, I apologise for the ignorant mistakes the church has made. I talk of my views as a christian, and I hope I dont come across ignorant to the world and self-righteous

See, you are quick to say they are not true Christians. I guess that means that St. Augustine was not a true Christian, since he called for the TORTURE of homosexuals and blasphemers. And St. Thomas Aquinas called for their outright murder. Two of the greatest minds in Christian history have been labeled by you as 'not true christians'. Maybe you are not a true Christian since you just admitted that you do not listen to Jesus or to Old Testament Law.

Yes, and you are wrong. He clearly says that we are not to deviate from Old Testament law. Any teachings of his that promote forgiveness are pure contradiction.
