I no longer consider myself pro-life

[Sparko]

So if I'm not virtuous, I can become virtuous by voting for Democrats?

of course. otherwise you are a bigot and a nazi who hates poor people and Jesus.

You people remind me of the rich guy in the bible to whom Jesus said, and I'm paraphrasing of course, "you want to follow me, go, give all your belongings to the poor and then come follow me." And the rich guy said "ah, I don't think so Lord, I didn't realize I'd have to sacrifice my stuff to follow you." If you are truly a christian, then you would support the type of government in which taxes are collected in order to care for the poor.
To me, most of you anti-socialist here are pseudo christians, the plight of other less fortunate people really doesn't matter to you, so long as you can pretend to care, or so long as you can get something out of it for yourself, like the good feeling you get when directly and personally helping someone. If you were truly a christian you'd support the kind of government that would exist if Jesus himself were the head of it, not someone like Trump who, along with the republican congress, is still working at throwing 13 million people off of healthcare with his tax cuts for the wealthy policy.

Perhaps "us people" simply know that we as individuals are responsible for helping others rather than merely sloughing it off on the government and muttering "that's what I pay taxes for."

The next time you want to mindlessly blather and blither you might want to stop and ponder just how many of those you call "pseudo christians" [sic] have long histories of not only contributing to charities but also volunteering our time to help those in need.

No, but Uncle Joe says you can become more patriotic by paying more taxes!

"It's time to be patriotic ... time to jump in, time to be part of the deal, time to help get America out of the rut."

The Jesus depicted in the gospels would be highly likely to look favorably upon such a person.

Jesus came into conflict with and was almost killed by the social justice warriors and anti-fascist activists of His day.

Er, by that do you mean the conservative religious leaders, aka the Pharisees?

The pharisees were ultraliberals who reinterpreted religious doctrine in a manner similar to the way you tried to reinterpret your inevitable and eternal doom earlier in the thread.

Well, according to you guys, Jesus would make Bernie sell all three of his houses, and give up his "top 1%" earner status!

Bernie would probably decline, and say (what was it Jimmy falsely reported the 'rich man' said?) 'it ain't gonna happen', the Jesus could go on to explain 'it's harder for a rich dude like Bernie to get into Heaven...".

So, Jesus would use Bernie as an object lesson in 'whose a loser'.

“Jesus would agree with me! The guy who wants do destroy Christianity, so trust me to get his teachings right.”



Got anymore whoppers you care to sell us today?

[lilpixieofterror]

Yeah, whatever you say.

It does come from the same person that wants it legal to kill toddlers, so being dislike by such a person is a great relief.
