Don't you think the only people Jesus was critical towards were those who oppressed and controlled others?

And towards those who didn't respect other people and did inappropriate things- like the moneychangers and sellers in the temple- right brimliner.

I don't know.
But I'd say it is a good argument for people learning how to behave better!

The only way to help the oppressed and controlled was to help the ones who were doing oppressing and controlling! He turned the ruthless into God fearing people who in turn, would see the error of their ways and stop their tyranny.

I believe that Jesus loves all people. He chases the money changers out of the temple, for giving to all another lesson about repentance.
He comes not to judge, but to educate. That is why the obedient people become educated, and the disobedient become lost.

Didn't respect the CHURCH, Duana!

He said "How dare you do this in my Father's House!"

He was specifically angry because they were disrespecting a temple of God. THAT is my point.

No, if you read the bible (assuming it really is gods, and thus jesuses word) jesus was critical of many other groups of people too.

what jesus did or didn't do is unimportant - what matters is that you believe that the only people Jesus was critical towards were those who oppressed and controlled others, and you choose to emulate that :)

Jesus was critical of all sinners. He did not ever tell anyone, "You can sin as much as you like as long as you don't oppress anyone." But you're right in that he seemed to be a lot harder on the Pharisees and oppressive religious leaders than others.
