Guns
 
Democrats not talking too much this election about grabbing guns.
Guess they have learned. Kerry is even photo-oping every chance he
gets with a shot gun over his shoulder. Hmmm! Just let him get in
office and see what happens to your gun(s).

It is interesting to note that the gun he had over his shoulder for the
"photo op" is one he voted to ban.

I'd call you dumb as a post, but that would be an insult to posts
everywhere.

Jesus was the ultimate liberal progressive revolutionary of all history.
The conservative religious and social structure that he defied hated and
crucified him. They examined His life and did not like what they saw. He
aligned himself with the poor and the oppressed. He challenged the
religious orthodoxy of his day. He advocated pacifism and loving our
enemies. He liberated women and minorities from oppression. He healed on
the Sabbath and forgave adulterers and prostitutes. He associated with
drunks and other social outcasts. He rebuked the religious right of his
day because they embraced the letter of the law instead of the Spirit.
He loved sinners and called them to himself. Jesus was the original
Liberal. He was a progressive, and he was judged and hated for it. It
was the self-righteous religionists that he rebuked and he called them
hypocrites.

The primary issues of Christian Liberalism were birthed when Jesus spoke
the profoundly prophetic words found in Matthew 25: 31-46. These
scriptures reveal God's heart for the poor, the sick and other neglected
people through out history. Christians should read this text and judge
for themselves which of the two groups mentioned there more accurately
reflect the political parties of today. His Liberalism lives on today
and the issues have not changed much.

Yes. Let's agree to debate What (Who) Would Jesus Shoot only if we
include a discussion of what size scuppers allow the easy passage of
spent cartridges...

You're crazy, why would you want to let all that valuable brass fall
overboard?

You have it backwards. If the man you call Jesus were alive today he would
be considered a radical conservative - a Jewish equivalent of an Iranian
Ayatollah. He would find "Christianity" detestable.

There's a problem there too. Matthew described a different Jesus (Yeshuah
ben Pendara, son of a Roman soldier) who'd been 'hanged on a tree' some 50
years earlier.

This is *so* OT: A guy who could purportedly walk on water has
opinions on footwear, not boats.

So "What Would Jesus Sail?" is answered by "a nice pair of Tevas,
maybe, or those Sperry sandals". Definitely an open-toed guy, I would
venture.

To his credit, though, he had a lot of sailor buddies and enjoyed a
nice snack of fish now and then.
