Jesus was the first Republican:

totally wrong of course. Progressives use violent govt programs; Jesus was about individual behavior, not about govt behavior. This is why conservatives give more to charity than liberals.

 

this is kindergarten or less. Then you got rich by stealing from the poor through govt favor. Today we have capitalism wherein you get rich by inventing new products and creating jobs that keep us all alive at an always increasing standard of living, and when you die, or before, you give most of the profit to charity like Gates and Buffett. Today the capitalist rich are like Gods themselves.

 

this is why so many books are written about conservatives giving more to charity than liberals and why even the NYtimes admonishes its liberal readers not to forget charity at Christmas time and to be generous like conservatives. Sorry to rock your world.Now perhaps you see why conservatives feel that liberalism is based in pure ignorance?

 

Jesus knew about slavery and said nothing, but Jefferson was born owning slaves, it was illegal to set them free then, and he put more in the Declaration about the evil of slavery than about taxes. you also mean he created freedom in America that quickly freed the slaves and that he and Jesus just freed 2 billion people in China and India from liberal communism.

 

now that you have had your first history lesson want to try to present your best example of this dishonesty??

 

Jesus didn't own slaves, and Jefferson could have set them free when he died, did he? no. America was one of the last countries in the west to abolish slavery by the way, not sure why you said quickly.

 

Your version of history should include a few more facts and broader analysis. My dishonesty? Haven't lied or told a untruth, but I have disagreed with you.

Seems you are quick to judge those who disagree with you as being dishonest. Quite telling.

 

WTF does that have to do with the price of tomatoes? Oh right nothing.

I certainly do see why SOME conservatives feel like liberalism is based on pure ignorance, and its all about their own monumental ignorance not to mention their simple minded bumpersticker slogans.

 

but somehow he forgot to forbid slavery

 

1) Jesus didn't own slaves and didn't address issue of slavery
2) Jefferson was in debt when he died so it would have been illegal to set his slaves free when he died
3) Jefferson created freedom on earth without which the slaves in America and communists in USSR and Red China would never have been set free.

 

and so this makes Jesus evil rather the creator of Western Civilization?

 

Doubtful. Jesus cared about people and their well being. And thought it was good for people to help others.
If this website is indicative of Republicans, they only care about me, myself, and I. And family. And to hell with anyone else.

 

if so why so afraid to present best example of this monumental ignorance? What do you learn frm your fear?

 

Jesus said all gov'ts on this earth are given by God.

 

you have learned 27 times that conservatives give more to charity than liberals. Should we go for 28??

 

where??????????????????

 

Tax writeoffs. Helps me, myself, and I by lowering the taxes.

 

Have you read the bible? If not, why did you start this thread.

 

actually both liberals and conservative get same write offs but conservatives contribute more to charity so are more caring than liberals. Got it now??

 

you said: "Jesus said all gov'ts on this earth are given by God". I asked, where? and you tried to change the subject. Do you know why you tried to changed the subject?

 

Giving in the weekly collection plate, mostly helps the church it is given to. Some churches, will spread that to the community. Yep, got it.

 

https://www.biblegateway.com/verse/en/Romans 13:1

NIV
Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.

I was determining your credibility on the subject of the OP. I now know.

 

I didn't say anything about the weekly collection plate????????? notice how someone will tell liberals that libsocialists are selfless and caring and liberals will then repeat it like robots just as the liberal masters instructed.

 

That is a biggie in the charitable contribution category.
And since you now have to make this personal, it is your unconscious way of telling us you lost the discussion.
