Jesus was a communist - all about the redistribution of wealth.

I would have thought "all of the above".

Jesus was a nice Jewish man who wanted a few changes to Jewish law. We might call him Conservative.

I would not classify him as a conservative. He challenged the Jewish leaders of the times. Managed to have them answer the questions they asked of him. Taught tolerance vs exclusivity.

True. I just couldn't think of a better analogy. He did NOT set out to start a new religion.
