9. The Dems would like him...

Reubs would crucify him.

Their brand of "Christianity" is...well anti-Christ teachings.

That punk Jesus was WAY too liberal...always yammering about peace and not judging and loving and caring for the weak and oppresses and sick and widowed and children.
The only ones he cursed were pharisees that took advantage of the poor and weak for their own gain, had a pretty surface of self-righteousness and was full of rot within and so on.


I know this is a joking thread but it just boggles my mind when they are so smug about their Christian values. WHAT Christian values? If they mean "Christian" churches...maybe. But shouldn't that relate to Jesus's values?

They seem to think abortion and gay marriage are the markers. Jesus never mentioned either of those issues. The values he did talk about they are absolutely against.

I don't really mean they would crucify him. In these times a charismatic, loving leader who spoke out against the misuse of power and aimed to protect those who needed it...would not be hung on a cross by these modern day pharisees. It would be...what, an accident? Assasination? But not a cross.

Kristofferson lyrics also come to mind:

That punk Jesus was WAY too liberal...always yammering about peace and not judging and loving and caring for the weak and oppresses and sick and widowed and children.

Jesus was a capricorn
He ate organic food
He believed in love and peace
And never wore no shoes

Long hair, beard and sandles
And a funky bunch of friends
Reckon we’d just nail him up
If he came down again

’cause everybody’s gotta have somebody to look down on
Who they can feel better than at any time they please
Someone doin’ somethin’ dirty decent folks can frown on
If you can’t find nobody else, then help yourself to me

Eggheads cussing rednecks cussing
Hippies for their hair
Others laugh at straights who laugh at
Freaks who laugh at squares

Some folks hate the whites
Who hate the blacks who hate the klan
Most of us hate anything that
We don’t understand
