[Hoot Gibson]

Geez, Hoot, and I mean, Geez.... Biblical figures, especially jesus, in truth, cannot be used to support one side or the other. One of the things that so irritated everybody about jesus, ultimately leaving him to basically be executed with only a few women (one of them his mother) standing by him, was his refusal to be co-opted by one side or another. I have no idea what the Biblical figures would have done politically. What I am saying is that the Bible continually and repeatedly speaks of monied elites and economic injustice and expresses within "god" a preferential "heart" toward the oppressed and downtrodden. Frankly, it makes one weary to continually read your hackery. Tiresome.

You are the one who constantly tries distorts scripture to support your socialist positions. I merely pointed out one of the many weaknesses of your absurd arguments. Socialists are all for separation of church and state except when they are busy painting Jesus as a long haired hippie-socialist.
