What would Jesus cut?
   
Edited on Tue Feb-22-11 03:54 PM by bobbolink
Since this is about actual ACTION, rather than just empty words, I am posting this in its entirety, which is what Sojourners wants. (note to mods....this is NOT violating copyright.. they want this shared!)

https://secure3.convio.net/sojo/site/Donation2?idb=6095...

It would be nice of some of you would actually participate. The BOLD is mine.

Dear Bobbolink,

People of faith across the nation are defending the poor, but we still need you to join.
We’re just 127 gifts away from being able to send a “What Would Jesus Cut?” bracelet to every member of Congress. We’ll send one to you too, but you need to act quickly because supplies are limited. Give now!

We’re also within 80% of funds needed to run an ad campaign -- a full-page ad in Politico, a newspaper directed at our elected officials.

-blah blah-

Okay, I don't claim to be a Bible scholar, but I'm pretty sure Jesus never advocated the government taking care of people through forced taxation. Everything He called for was from individuals acting on their own conscience and faith. You know, the whole "free will" thing.

1. First of all...
   
He would cut the wars.

Then he would tax the wealthy.

Then he would feed and shelter the poor.

Then he would enlighten the country spiritually.

Then we would kill him and hang him on a cross...

He didn't cut the wars or tax the wealthy when he walked the Earth, though He certainly could have called on Divine power to do so had that been His purpose.

DUmmies don't see Jesus as being divine, though. They see him as more like the ultimate Democrat legislator.

BTW, while we're on the subject - who would Jesus abort?

13. He'd stop death however he could, including from hunger
   
I think, but his advocacy for the poor was his main stance...Matthew 25:

For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

So, how many have you taken into your home, clothed, and fed? Oh, that's right, you're waiting for a politician to do it.

Now if Jesus had set up govt to feed the poor then no man would know how to be charitable and willingly help others.

Dear Bobo the Hobo,

Jesus wasn't a political leader.

The first thing Jesus would cut would be the world because we don't need it.

After that, we would all be home anyway so everything you think is a problem wouldn't be anymore.

Be well.

None of those DUmmies have got a hair on their ass if they don't provide, to the highest of standards, for their Hobo Bobo.  How can they live with themselves while she's begging for their help?  They just send healing white light - cost, zero.  Pony up you deadbeats!

Jesus drove the money lenders from the Temple with a WHIP!
What do you think He would do with a bunch of baby killers?

Jesus said that God loves cheerful giver. He never advocated that helping the poor was a job of the Tax gatherers. Jesus never called upon Rome to start a preschool Head Start program. It was the faithful that helped the poor, not Rome, not Herod.

The DUmmies make a fatal mistake when they substitute the church for the government. When a DUmmie stands before God, he cannot claim his taxes as charitable giving. They freely admit to hating everything Jesus stands for, yet use His name in vain to manipulate others. Woe to them on the day they discover the reality of Christ.

1. First of all...
   
He would cut the wars. Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. (Matt 10:34)

Then he would tax the wealthy. “So give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” (Matt 22:21)

Then he would feed and shelter the poor. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, 14 and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.” (Luke 14:13-14)

Then he would enlighten the country spiritually. Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. (John 14:6)

Then we would kill him and hang him on a cross...

The libs would have nailed Christ to a tree long before he was ever able to enact those things.

According to the DUmp's Jezabus:

He would make the productive pay for the lazy.

He would make the poor even fatter than they are now with OPM.

He would make the trial lawyers even richer for stealing OPM.

He would punish the innocent and praise the criminals.

He would provide free drugs for the lazy.

Hey, Jesus said to render unto Caesar what is Caesar's, but at the time that only paid for roads, public services, law & order, and national security, not any entitlement programs beyond military pensions for long-service legionariae.  He probably wouldn't have understood why anyone has a problem cutting the social programs if they're unsustainable.

Jesus to these people is nothing more than an argument to try and force more money we don't have be spent on failing programs we shoulda cut off years ago!

I read on another thread, that in the 60's and 70's single parent Black households were around 28%. After 2 decades of DemoncRat feel good policies, the number is now 64%!

Don't know about you DUmmies, but those numbers disgust me! How can you say your policies help the poor?
