If you read it from the perspective that all the supernatural stuff is silly bs then what’s left is a weird cult leader raving about pacifism and loving the poor.
The New Testament as a whole taken as a work of literature the only real take aways are love the poor and and never strike back even when attacked. Christians always point to particular verses in a text that’s full of all kinds of random weirdness. If you’re literate and can see the forest (main idea and theme) then you can easily see that the philosophy being advocated is in every way completely at odds with America. There’s no way to be a patriotic American and a real Christian because it’s obvious to anyone with any reading comprehension that Christ would’ve hated America as much as I do.
