A potentially unpopular opinion about Jesus that I haven't previously seen in this forum

My thesis is that Jesus had some really moral, pure, and beautiful teachings. However, you shouldn't have to be a Christian to embrace those teachings. A lot of Christianity tacks on a lot of other beliefs, values, and ideals. At least some of those are superfluous or unrelated to Jesus' values. You should be able to believe in Jesus' teachings without having to agree to put a label on yourself of Christianity (or any other label). In other words, Christianity has erroneously expropriated all of the teachings of Jesus.

The secularist approach agrees with you in that Jesusโ€™ teachings were basically hijacked

I meant the secularist scholarly approach on Christianity
