KoreanHockeyFan Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Why are we even associating Jesus to politics? You can't categorize him with an ideology, it's Jesus. It's the people who interpret his works that end up labeling him with some kind of political theory, Jesus himself is on his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aeromotacanucks Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 ok. I´m sorry. the question now is "Was Jesus a Communist? a Socialist? a Liberal Communist or a Conservative Captalist" In Soviet Russia Jesus loves YOU! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbinger Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 I doubt it - maybe for a socialist - and even that's a stretch. Jesus gave His life for everyone. Not one "political theory" would do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 But aren't they giving their lives for god who in turn is doing everything he does for everyones sake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 You do realize socialism is less extreme than communism, right? Also, for the sake of discussion, let's pretend Jesus can't solve all the worlds problem by dying. Unless he was totally crazy and tried to kill himself anyways, he would undoubtedly still have an opinion on economical matters, the environment, social issues, etc. What would they be? I don't think he would mind the rich paying 6% more in taxes for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cpt.Clutch Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 He likely would have if he had access to C-4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wetcoaster Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 He had access to other weapons but chose to use none. In fact, the Jewish people were expecting their saviour to be a militant leader but Jesus apparantly didn't fit the bill. You should read and study the bible before you speak about it.

Heretic Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 But isn't letting yourself die rather fighting to live the same as killing yourself? Doesn't God say that all life is sacred? Any harm you do on yourself you are doing unto god as well? Wouldn't letting yourself be killed be the same as letting someone kill God? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
