He also chose to reach out to the outcasts (prostitutes and lepers), those without power, creating a network of people whose influence was less than zero.

He also chose to reach out to the outcasts (prostitutes and lepers), those without power, creating a network of people whose influence was less than zero. In a way that could only be described as bizarre, all that Jesus did and said moved diametrically in the other direction from power.
