I agree, Jesus wouldn't be a Republican. My one nitpick is that Mary Magdalene wasn't a prostitute :P That's just a myth from when the Catholic Church declared her one, then changed its mind.

  It's still debated among theologians.

      Jesus would be surrounded by gays prostitutes and drug dealers?
      Have you read Leviticus?

        "Jesus would be surrounded by gays prostitutes and drug dealers?

        Bang. There goes your credibility. Leviticus predates Christ. Christ was regularly in the presence of the marginalized including prostitutes (woman at the well). If you've read the Bible, in particular the NT with an eye towards historical context, you'd know this.

        Excepting the Fact that Jesus said he was not here to change the OT laws. That we were to still follow them.
        (I have read the Bible. Cover to cover 3 times. Plan to do so again this fall. Even Books like Numbers that most people think drag on.)

        "We who are Jews by birth and not 'Gentile sinners' know that a man is not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by observing the law, because by observing the law no one will be justified." Gal 2:15-16, NIV

        37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
        38 This is the first and great commandment.
        39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
        40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
        (Where in this can be read you can hate gays???)

        The Old Testament is irrelevant, except that it provides historical perspective.
        The New Testament is the word of God. Jesus preached tolerance.

        Tolerance is the least of it, and passive. We are commanded to LOVE.

    Mary was of the house of David, she was royalty. Not a theory, absolute fact. The thought that she would be a prostitute is mildly amusing considering her position in society.
    She was demonized just because she was a woman, sort of reminds me of how our media has jumped on Obama boat, and are now throwing stones at Clinton.

      Clinton's gender is a problem for many in both parties.

      Clinton was the presumptive nominee of the Democratic party at the outset, and it was her poor choices for campaign leaders, underestimation of the potential and expertise of Obama and his campaign mangers, penchant for employing dirty tricks when realization and desperation set in, and her attitude of brushing it aside when she used her Bosnia trip to give validity to her level of experience, only to be caught in a lie.
      She played into the hysteria over Rev, Wright's 30 second sound bites, but cried foul when Obama made a valid criticism of her health care plan. People became turned off and tuned out to her antics. At one point, I would not have been upset if she were to be the nominee; now, I would hurt me to my heart! She's not worthy.

        Is her Bosnia trip fiasco any worse than Baracks 57 state comment?

        Wouldn't know, haven't heard it, and I would definitely check to verify it, so if you care to share it, also provide the proof.

        I believe that he meant to say 47 and that it was a slip of the tongue. However, seeing how the media (and myself) trashed Clinton for her Bosnia remarks, seeing as how ther media and the left have trashed McCains "100 years" remark, and remembering how Dan Quayle was all but crucified for spelling potato "potatoe" (even though it is a correct spelling) I figure that we should not give Barry a pass.

      then how did mary end up with a lower middle class carpenter?
      and for hillary, being a woman is the least of her problems. her biggest problem is wreaking of ruthless ambition.
