Seriously???? Dude, come on, Jesus Christ was the most liberal, most "leftist" person in HISTORY! Jesus Christ was a long haired hippy liberal
through and through. GOOD Christians, the ones that actually follow what Christ taught, are liberal because HE was liberal. Now you have a lot of
people who claim they're christian, but they aren't. They follow what their redneck preacher tells them, the redneck preacher who has no idea who
Christ is.
All these fundamentalist evangelicals worship money and hatred, they don't worship Christ, they only CLAIM to worship Christ. They're the very same
hypocrits that shouted "CRUCIFY HIM" 2000 years ago. They're the same people who made the golden calf when Moses didn't come down off the mountain
fast enough, they're the same people who made fun of Noah when he built that big boat in the middle of dry land with no bodies of water anywhere
around.
There are many, many, many Christians who are liberal, you just don't see them because instead of standing on their soapbox trying to get attention,
they're doing the work that God told them to do. They don't pray on the street corner for everyone to see, they pray in private like the Bible tells
us to do. They don't scream hatred at people, they help those who need help. If you want REAL Chrisitans, the only place you're going to find them
is on the left because it's absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to be republican and be a christian at the same time. They are in direct opposition.
First of all, I'm NOT a Christian or a member of ANY organized religion.
I DO believe that Jesus was a fully-realized being and a genuine spiritual teacher. Muhammad was NOT.
If you want to believe that Jesus was a hippie and would have been sympathetic to a Socialist/Communist agenda and to homosexuality, that is your
prerogative.
I don't care about homosexuality (a non-issue) & I am Pro-Choice.
Hypocrites can be found everywhere, not just among Fundamentalist Christians or "redneck preachers" (do I detect socio-economic snobbery here?).
The rest of your diatribe is illogical and arrogant. Fundamentalist Christians did not crucify Jesus. How do you know ALL these evangelicals worship
money & hate?
And your:
"If you want REAL Chrisitans, the only place you're going to find them is on the left because it's absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to be republican and be a
christian at the same time. They are in direct opposition."
is head-spinning.
Yes, of course, everyone remembers how the Soviet Communists were so sympathetic to religion in general and Christians in particular.
You want to explain to me how it's impossible to be a Repubican and a Christian at the same time?
