maybe one of our more religious scholars can quote the phrase that jesus
is quoted as saying is the most important of his teachings, sorry i am so
hazy on my christian history, but i am pretty sure it wasn't the one you
mentioned as a cornerstone....

Me now:

Not that I'm a scholar, but this is the passage I think you're referring: 
Matthew 22: 35-40  (NAS version)


35) And one of them, a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him,

36) "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?"

37) And He said to him, "'You shall love the Lord your God with all your
heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.'"

38) "This is the great and foremost commandmant."

39) "And the second is like it, 'You shall love your neighbor as
yourself.'"

40) "On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Phophets."
