Why the the left should NEVER try exploiting the Bible

[Avatar4321]

Liberals are more Jesus like than the hate filled righties .

If Jesus was alive today, he'd rip the nails out of his own hands to climb down and bitch slap every stinking illegal loving lefty. grrr (-

yes, 'cause jesus was ALL about violence.

He wouldn't beat up the moneylenders today. (-:

Trump, Feb. 17: Torture works. OK, folks? You know, I have these guys—”Torture doesn’t work!”—believe me, it works. And waterboarding is your minor form. Some people say it’s not actually torture. Let’s assume it is. But they asked me the question: What do you think of waterboarding? Absolutely fine. But we should go much stronger than waterboarding.

Trump on Torture - FactCheck.org

would jesus approve of torture today?

What does Trump have to do with Christ?

The real irony . They have the same core beliefs as Islam .

I'm guessing you don't know the core values of either religion

The GOP doesn't worship god.....it worships money without working hard for it.....like ceos.

Modern conservatism is the equivalent to anti-Christian dogma. Conservatives are diametrically opposed to the teachings of Christ.

But that religion makes a good front for the plethora of lies they need to sell.

That's a pretty general and sweeping assertion.

Do you have anything other than your rhetoric to convince a skeptical observer?

Jesus' main teaching was raise up and help the poor. "What you do for the least of these my brothers you do for me". Conservatives are hell bent on stepping on the poor at every single opportunity they get.

Waterboarding is classified as torture, yet Evangelicals, among all religious groups, are the ones most in favor of torture according to polls. Yes let us go back and read where Jesus praises the virtues of torturing human beings.

Just two things from a long list of things conservatives are in direct opposition to Jesus Christ. You can't claim to follow someone and then ignore everything they did, said, and stood for.

Mmmm Hmmm. I'm certain this "long list" resides in your colon. Thanks for playing.

Thanks for playing? LOL You offer nothing, you have nothing. Run along and find your blocks. Can't refute what someone says? Don't go snowflake and cry about it.

You think I care what you think of me? The Bible clearly states homosexuallity is a sin, not once, not twice but numerous times.

He'd tell them to knock it off and sin no more

None of this matters, since your "holy book" is a series of deplorable laws and myths written by men who were frightened of women's periods and had never heard of the concept of toilet paper.

Oh, and one more thing:

Bible Gateway passage: 1 Timothy 2:12 - New International Version

12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet.


So shut up, you stupid bitch. -- love, Jesus.

Then stop trying to quote it you stupid son of a bitch

This is the problem, you quote it for your own purpose and then when it's pointed out it doesn't serve your agenda then it's all nonsense.

You transparent assholes really need to stop

Me thinks you need a little.

I could not care less what you think....really

You know you are a grumpy old hag.

No reason to talk to a lady like that

Get back on topic noob...there are ways to force that...trust me

If you don't believe in God or the Bible that's your choice....now tolerate ours

And we get to the rub.

YOU, in turn, have to stop thrusting your religion into the public sphere. And that includes schools, courthouses, and statehouses.

We are explicitly commanded by God to live our religion in private and public. And the Constitution protects our right to exercise our faith publicly and in private.

Envy , I feel sorry for them, but yes they can pay more taxes, I mean they need healthy people as slaves right? PS: if success if being born with a silver spoon, or being a crook , I'm not? I'm just someone who has really worked all my life for what I have and I have paid my taxes, that to me is success, I never had to go to court or sue or be sued. I doubt I could be around the stench of the rich, and I have no use in finding out, I'm content with my humble life.

Oh...is that what Bill Gates did? He just used and abused people? He was a "crook"? Same with Steve Jobs? Warren Buffet? The envy just oozes off of you in the filthiest and most repulsive of ways.

Bill Gates made everyone who started with him, millionaires. Bill Gates personally created more millionaires than any entrepreneur in history. And then he gave his money to charity, as did nearly everyone who worked with him. That's Christianity.

The left is all over the news, social media, and even right here on USMB these days attempting to exploit the Bible for their own political gain. Whenever they are incapable of defending their irrational position, aside from screaming racist/homophobe/xenophobe/etc., they will invariably scream "the Bible says to redistribute wealth". The problem, of course, is that the Bible says no such thing. And they would know that if they didn't hate the Bible and religion. It's a bad idea to attempt to quote something one has never read.

Josh Protas, the vice president of public policy at MAZON, a Jewish anti-hunger group...quoted a verse in Leviticus. Not to be outdone, Rep. Jodey Arrington quoted a Bible verse of his own, saying, “If a man will not work he shall not eat.”

“I did hear Mr. Protas, your opening remarks, where you quoted Leviticus, I believe — and I think that’s a great reflection on the character of God and the compassion of God’s heart and how we ought to reflect that compassion in our lives,” Arrington said. “But there’s also, you know, the Scripture, tells us in 2 Thessalonians chapter 3:10, he says, ‘for even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: if a man will not work, he shall not eat.’ And then he goes on to say ‘we hear that some among you are idle.’

Boom! Talk about a knockout blow. This is what happens to a person who doesn't know the Bible and yet attempts to exploit it for the evils of socialism/marxism/communism.

Libs FURIOUS! Texas Republican Has 10 BRUTAL Words For Food Stamp Junkies

I'm pretty sure Leviticus calls for the killing of homosexuals too,

something that apparently you, as some sort of devout adherent to the mandates of the Bible,

agree with.

Given that you agree that homosexuals should be killed, do you think we should have a constitutional amendment to codify that?

Pay little attention to Godless leftist heathens that quote scripture.

Nine of ten times they are in waaaaay over their heads

Actually, the "godless" usually know scripture much better than "true believers".

Survey: Atheists, Agnostics Know More About Religion Than Religious

Christianity is not a religion, it's a faith...
all religions are man-made

Now that is Goddam funny and I'll wager even God wouldn't mind my saying that.

Jesus' main teaching was raise up and help the poor. "What you do for the least of these my brothers you do for me". Conservatives are hell bent on stepping on the poor at every single opportunity they get.

And where did he state that the poor should he helped at the barrel of a gun by government???

You guys keep claiming that but I've seen no evidence you understand what conservatism or Christianity teaches

Waterboarding is classified as torture

By who? Limp-wristed liberals like yourself? Sorry if we don't care how you cowards "classif" stuff.

 

[P@triot]

Well of course you are against waterboarding - like all left-wing hatriots you're against the United States. You want to see our enemies bring us down. The rest of however could care less if some murderous thugs are a little uncomfortable.

So your main concern here is to assert your right to tell Jesus to go fuck himself when it comes to issues such as helping the poor.

Interesting.

A) none of that wealth could be kept without the protection* of teh state

That is as idiotic a statement as I have seen. You're clearly incapable of thinking for yourself because that is a hardcore idiotic left-wing talking point.

Bill Gates has his own personal security

Warren Buffett has his own personal security

Every wealthy individual does. Here - watch and learn something just once in your life:


In addition, the state cannot prevent crime. They can only respond once a crime has been committed. Our constitutional rights prevent them from being proactive.

B) that the free market is not going to provide for all citizens, and that those who have more than they need must give to those that do not for the Republic to not fall apart to the mob.

Who decides that a person "has more than they need"? A greedy prick like you? A selfish prick like IsaacNewton?

This America comrade. We don't have to give anything to anyone1. The U.S. Constitution guarantees that you don't get to steal just because you are lazy and greedy.

There is absoultely nothing preventing a society from hanging their elite en masse if they don't take care of their needy. The French Revolution being the best example of that. All the founding fathers worried about was a mob coming to lynch them

Sure there is - it's called the 2nd Amendment. There is also something called private security. But it's nice to know that advocate for violence as a means of obtaining wealth instead of hard work resulting in the products and services society wants and needs. Typical left-wing fascist.

Those guys get paid

YOu think they're going to just mow down their fellow Americans for a few dollars? When a mass social movement to lynch elite is going on?

We're a republic, we can just use the state to kill them. Not to mention I don't know if you've noticed but we're a pretty well armed nation. I wouldn't bet on a few guys in an SUV, pretty easy to make something like that go boom

 

[Avatar4321]

The "homos" only point out the fake Christians hypocrisy of beating them with Leviticus while ignoring the rest of it.

Here is the bottom line friend - no where in the Bible does God advocate for government to place a gun to the head of a citizen and take what is theirs. It just doesn't. The entire Bible advocates giving of our own free will.

The left-wing fascists have stripped people of that free will.

Geez you are really demanding specific examples.

Where does it say abortion is wrong ? That you should hate the gays ? Cause you righties have no problem using government for that !

Thou shalt not kill.

Conservatives dont hate gays.

Odd you think protecting the lives of children is somehow evil

 

[Juicin]

If I can't use the bible, why would you get to smear Islam?

This is what the right doesn't get, we hate christians too

lol

both are equally evil religions. And both laid down by basically the same sand dwellers

Being honest, courageous, and full of love is evil to you... Strange

If you're talking about Christianity, there are centuries of colonialism that disagree with you

Not to mention the most violent wars to ever go on being waged by Christians
