A Response To: Revelations regarding the Left (Joe Scarborough)

Editorial Link: Here

My Response:

"I don’t know about you, but I am not trying to convert people by shoving them in my church. You won’t hear the next pope cite this doctrine but I often chant Saint John Lennon’s hymn “Whatever Gets You Through the Night.”"

No, you just want shove YOUR morality down our throats through the government. Hmmm...sounds vaguely familiar; Iran in the late 1970s perhaps? You say you're different? Why, because YOUR God is better?

"Sullivan knows that most evangelicals read the teachings of Christ to promote life, discourage abortion, oppose gay marriage, and in America at least, vote Republican."

Pro-life unless it's about guns and dead school children, war on non-Christians, the death penalty - especially for kids, poverty - got to have those tax cuts cause Greed is now a Christian value or sexual education beyond abstinence - which has been shown to work REAL well, or bombing clinics and proudly claiming self-righteous idignation at how others live.

"He is accurate to say that Jesus Christ never attacked gay relationships in the Gospels. That is left to Paul in Romans and to several Old Testament writers."

Yeah, and exactly HOW LONG after Christ died was that written? And, as far as Old Testament writings, do you REALLY want to try and run a country on those, Mullah Scarborough? Funny, I thought theocracy and fundamentalism were what we, well some of us, were fighting overseas.

"But Sullivan’s suggestion that the same Jesus who preached that lusting after a woman is a damning offense would give gay sex a free pass seems suspect at best."

Ah, and there we have it; the reason all of you bigots cannot get over the gay issue: you think being gay is all about sex. You just cannot fathom a caring relationship between two people of the same gender. For you, it's all about the sex. So who has the perverted mind here?

So self-righteous, so simple, so sad.

My question is this: would Jesus lash out at those who criticize him or his beliefs?

How about living a little more like Jesus and a little less like you THINK the Bible wants you to live?
