I really think Jesus would be a Democrat if he were alive these days
Here's why:
Welfare - Yes Gun Control - Yes National Health Care - Yes Progressive Taxation - Yes Death Penalty Abolition - Yes (as a victim, I can almost guarantee that he would be opposed to this) :-) Anti-War - Yes Equal Rights for All - Yes Pro-Evironment - Yes Pro Worker/Union - Probably Yes
I think the touchy points would be Abortion and maybe some issues regarding homosexuality.
I think we can assume with a high degree of confidence that he would be against abortion. Probably not anywhere near some the level of viciousness that the fundies are, but I think he would be rather opposed.
I also think that he would be against gay marriage, but I think he would still believe in giving GLBT's equal civil rights. This one is tough, and I guess it could go either way.

Am I missing any obvious liberal issues? (it is late and I am tired)
