    Where did Jesus say that? When did Jesus talk to Christians in the Bible since he was a Jew and was talking to Jews

    McCain seemed liberal in comparison to the rest of his party primarily because of his vocal opposition to torture. Jesus, I think, would be against torture. I honestly can't recall a specific Biblical passage to that effect, I admit. But that's the Jesus I know.

    Jesus was the first communist, well in today terms, the first anarchist. And I think that almost no Christian is following his ideology.

    If I was a Christian believer I would follow similar beliefs to Tolstoy.
    Tolstoyan movement
    Lev Tolstoy

    Or even following the Liberation Theology

    He has been liberal one tear and conservative another. There is a reason he is known as the maverick

    It made him closer to His Father so more knowledgeable on the ways of God

    Which makes Him ... better. Closeness to God and knowledge in the ways of God are the definition of good. People that are close to God and have knowledge in the ways of God are better than people that are not close to God and do not have knowledge in the ways of God. Jesus is literally better than everyone else. And He said so. And He is.

    You can't believe the whole Bible - it is contradictory. You are either a Christian or something else. Christianity is contained in the Epistles, Gospels and Acts, and I'd reckon it was hardly compatible with the way capitalist states behave. Marcion had sense, Constantine power.

    I've been to a lot of Tea Party events, gatherings and meeting but I can't remember hearing anyone mentioning Jesus. There are no opening prayers or pictures of God and Jesus getting married like there are at meetings of the liberal horde.

    We agree that Obama has failed.

    So , you have an example of how these far right hypocrites have damaged our country worse than the 9/11 attacks?

    The Tea Party is not involved in Religion in any way. They are for Less Taxes, Less Federal Government, More States Rights and Adhearance to the Constitution. I too have been to lots of Tea Partys and neither Jesus or religion has ever been mentioned. They must really be getting under the Libs skin.
