I'm happy to explain the how and why Christian Conservatives reinvented Jesus. It was the grand vision of combining Hardline Right Wing Politics with Christianity.

This reinvention was deemed essential because Christian Conservatives had just come out of 60's when Christians used Jesus to fight against Civil Rights and against peace in Vietnam. Obviously, some way was needed to reconcile Jesus with the blatant bigotry and unlimited support for warfare that American Christians held dear.

Some may think it incongruous that this reinvented Jesus bears little resemblance to the LIBERALS Jesus. The solution was for Modern American Christians to reject THEIR Jesus. Simple as that. And with the Right Wing Control of Media, Christian Conservatives regularly DENY the Jesus of the Bible. (THAT Jesus had a message that was DECIDEDLY Socialist.) So, they ridicule Liberals for not believing in the Re-Invented, War-Loving Jesus.
