Dwain Northey (Gen X)
I heard the most ridiculous, well one of the most insane comments come out of the Mara Logo Mango Maniacs mouth when a reporter asked him about the Speaker of the House kerfuffle. First off, he isn’t in the government anymore so who really cares what his bloated ass thinks, and the nation that Repulican’t are still vying for his endorsement is ludicrous. His divine statement was that Jesus Christ should be elected Speaker, “He could get the Votes, think he’d do a pretty good job.” WTF!!!
Ok first part of that insane statement is that any Republican would nominate Jesus… Lets think about what Christs Platform would be.
- Welcome the stranger.
- Feed the poor.
- Left up the downtrodden.
- Turn the other cheek.
Those tenants are completely opposite of the Republican platform. The current right-wing lunatics would make Pontius Pilate seem like he went easy on the Jesus. Plus, the thought of the GOP actually following orders from any one other than another pontificating white guy is laughable.
This is a short rant but I had to get this out of my head…feel free to comment, agree, disagree, tell me I am over reacting. I am easy…

True I just wish those that profess to follow the teachings of ‘Christianity’ would actually read the book they say they follow.

I agree. If more people read it. Less people would believe. Even better less people would argue with it.

Lol, yeah that would be the day. I don’t know if a lot of the Christians realize they are supporting the opposite of actual Christian values. It is a strange paradox.

Biblical values/morals are different than what the general American idea of Christianity is. Christianity has evolved over time to keep up with a secular nation here. If anyone were to practice Biblical Christianity they would go to prison in any country for the atrocities they would feel divinely justified in committing.

If you were to practice Old Testament ideas…New Testament isn’t based told from a perspective of a vengeful God that had strict guidelines for his “children “

It never did away with the old. The new was written to try to force a character to fit the old. However the writers didn’t understand the old well enough to get it right. It never gave new moral teachings and even the Jesus character says to keep the old laws of Moses. The ones where God condones slavery. Instructs how to beat slaves. Tells who are okay to make slaves of. The ones cast out from God is how the new testament describes the not people people.

I’m not against community and the search for a god. The Bible is indefensible.
