Isn't Jesus a democrat?

[Kondor3]

Jesus said help the poor and the sick which sounds like every other democrat I know. I can't figure out why so many democrats in the last few years seem hostile to Christianity. I don't expect people to accept the miracles or the whole died for my sins stuff but what about the things he said about being compassionate. Why throw that out with it? It just seems that the teachings of Jesus goes hand in hand with what being a liberal is all about.

every year, year in year out, cons donate more money to charity than leftist, this has been true for decades.

leftist don't know charity b/c they think the government is charitable.

And it is, for many millions of people, using our tax money, which we're fine with.

its not

all you do is keep the poor poor and dependent

that's not charity that slavery

Dogma, even useless dogma. Welfare isn't slavery, and neither is Social Security. And stop offending slaves, past and present, it's disrespectful.

There are slaves still around, to be offended?

then how come it's nearly impossible to get off welfare?

hint; it's by design.

No, it isn't. And the fixes for it cost money, which is why you won't pay for them. Child care, job training, birth control, etc. You want people off of welfare then you have to do more than pray, you have to do the actual work and make it possible so they can as well, and you won't because that means taxes and you just can't stand those.

And they won't vote for your side because you call them lazy worthless scum. Imagine...

And they vote your side because you play Santa... which makes them lazy scum and you an enabler.

Unfortunately, there is some merit to this last bit... Nanny Stat-ism... dumped primarily upon one racial demographic... is not a healthy state of affairs.

I'd guess that Jesus would observe the behavior of our political parties and partisans for an hour or two, take a deep breath, stand up and walk away, shaking his head.

Just a guess.

Ay caramba. OP- Of course he is- He's not a greedy a-hole, bigoted hater, or a misinformed fool.

Just the facts, m'am. Luckily most dupes are just that...see sig, last line...

Good guess, but it wouldn't take him that long, and forced to choose, there is a lesser evil.

Democrats want the state to force everyone to "help" the poor and sick.
Jesus did not.
There you go.

And they came and said to him, “Teacher, we know that you are true and do not care about anyone’s opinion. For you are not swayed by appearances, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not? Should we pay them, or should we not?” But, knowing their hypocrisy, he said to them, “Why put me to the test? Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.” And they brought one. And he said to them, “Whose likeness and inscription is this?” They said to him, “Caesar’s.” Jesus said to them, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” And they marveled at him.

There you go.

Jesus never said it was the responsibility of Roman Government to care for the poor and needy FOR its citizens, he advocated the individual to take the initiative OVER government. Show me a scripture where Jesus forced the Roman Government to convert to His teachings and take on that responsibility over the role and responsibility of each and every man... each "individual"... to seek to the needs of the less fortunate. After all, who actually was viewed to be the "Good Samaritan", it certainly was not representative of a government official.

Jesus is the Son of God.

According to his sucky fan club, Jesus the god is apparently a war loving, poor people hating asshole that needs a lot of cash. Jesus the man is someone who had a very profound effect on my life and was the early basis for my liberalism but apparently to the god Jesus my liberalism is a sin that will doom my soul to eternal torment.

The story of the good Samaritan was a lesson on racism, not anything to do with the merits of giving.

Whatever the loons can claim Jesus supports their political ideology if they like personally I think Jesus would be disgusted with the majority of both the right and left of today.

He would see one party trying to help the poor, the downtrodden, the old and the sick and see the other party trying only to enrich the wealthy on the backs of the poor and he would not see them as the same thing. I was a devout christian all of my youth and studied the bible extensively and I have yet to come across the part where the government must never be allowed to reflect our Christian compassion for the needy.

He was for tolerance, compassion and helping the poor duh. I see RW chumps of the greedy idiot rich now want to go back to the government social policies of the Roman Empire- what ignorant shytteheads lol...Enjoy hell. The Dems and socialists (you dupes don't know what that is) will be in heaven. tyvm

 

[Mr.Right]

The difference is that Jesus wanted us to help the poor with out OWN money, not somebody else's.

You stole my thunder. Well. I did show up pretty late.

 

[Hossfly]

Roger that. The Democreeps have fixed everything.

 

[Hossfly]

Jesus said help the poor and the sick

Jesus said WE should help the poor and sick. Us, the people. And He helped them Himself, too.

He was very much against the government of his time forcing people to do things.

And the government, typical of big-govt dictatorships, tortured Him and killed Him for it.

Jesus was the exact opposite of modern "liberals".

In fact, Jesus was a conservative.

I don't know many conservatives who love their enemies.

I love every one of the sonsabitches.
