I don't believe for a second Jesus came to just say "yeah, forgot all that OT shit". It's twisting his words.
The OT is becoming an increasing embarrassment; the only reason they can't jettison it is because it has the story of original sin (which is obviously fictional) which Jesus is meant to solve. (After rewrites, that wasn't his original purpose. He was meant to put an end to animal sacrifices, if I remember right.)
I find it humorous that I take the bible and jesus' words more seriously than most Christians
