That's a decent point that a lot of people claiming to be christians don't understand the teachings, but the fact is that religion gives cover to tyrants to do terrible things, and it anesthetizes the population.
People think it's ok to spend your life getting butt-fucked by the government and the corporate interests it serves, so long as paradise is waiting for you. Besides, the sky wizard is going to ride his chariot down and fix everything any day now.
Christianity is a tool for control. It has been since Constantine. When you have a religion that tells people it is good to act like sheep, you get a population that is docile and easy to manipulate. Whatever good Jesus could have done for the world, his teachings have been perverted too much to have a net positive effect.
