Christianity teaches understanding. Understanding of the situations and the culture that has led to the formation of a person. What may be considered a personal flaw may actually simply be the product of harsh social conditions an individual has had to deal with. In his case, I understand that he has taken more ridicule, more social beatings than you or any of us will ever survive. He is Christ, although in the guise of a broken man, and we continue to beat him ourselves. We cause him to sink lower. All I ask is for us to act as our beliefs dictate to us, or as humanism as a virtue, dictates to intellectual societies. He is Christ. Do not ridicule him. Understand him. Splagchnizomai.
I have done him wrong in the past, and looking back how I wish I hadn't done what I had done, but now all I can do is hope, and maybe apologize someday.
