4. That's what I think too. He'd be so horrified by what has been done |
|
all these centuries and now by the violent extreme fundies in his name. It is OPPOSITE from everything he taught and lived. His heart would break

once completely destroyed a market because it had disobeyed the zoning laws. (It was in His Father's House.)
When Jesus smote that produce, trust me, it remained smitten.
And yet some people who were very slow on the uptake, saw all that, and STILL went and crossed the man. He is STILL in the kitchen, making the Whoop-ass and one of these days, He just might finishing caning that last batch and then it will be time for the Last Supper.
Now, I know I am not invited to that particular banquet but that it A-OK with me. Especially since I know that the first course consists of JC's Special Blend signed and numbered, limited edition, custom designed, individually packed freshly opened, full strength, Can of Almighty Whoop-Ass.

They take the concept of "taking the Lord's name in vain" to ever greater heights.
As the bumper sticker says: "Jesus is Coming. And is He Pissed."

17. yes, when he said "suffer the little children," that's NOT what he meant! |
|
It's amazing to me how these people can claim to be avid followers of Jesus, but they act like they've never read his story or his teachings at all. Using his name to excuse hate and violence - he would be devastated to see it.

19. Oh yeah, DEFINITELY. I remember that multipanel cartoon and |
|
have always thought that Republican Jesus captures its essence and expands it into additional areas, all with such a devastatingly simple format.
