Message to the Clueless

So I'm sitting in my class on Islamic mysticism and we're talking about a certain Sufi mystic that challenged the religious tradtions and practices of his times. Now, I can see, and agree with, how many of the Muslims in the class thought the guy went over board and he wasn't a true Muslim, just like I can see why Jews think the same thing of Jesus - but when you have hardcore Christians saying that the guy was too radical and he should have known when to shut up - well, I have to wonder if they know jack on what Jesus was all about. Their personal lord and savior was put to death, basically, because he was too radical for them. How, tell me HOW, did this escape them?

Just wondering. . .
