Consider the fact that Jesus freely mingled with the prostitutes and the tax collectors, and preached the value of the Samaritans and other Gentiles. The Christ's message is that of tolerance -- anybody who goes against that message loses the right to bear the name "Christian". It may be "fair to those christians" but it's infinitely unfair to the messiah they are supposed to emulate.

Jesus only became the King of Mercy in the New Testament. As for the old books, it was genocide, pestilence and racial discrimination galore.
