don't forget the golden rule.
Whomever has the gold makes the rules.
It's completely irrelevant to me what's in the Bible and what Jesus said or did not say in the Bible. I have not been to church since I was 17 years old, so I'm a bit rusty on the Bible. However it's important to draw a distinction between public charity and private charity.
I believe the Bible describes private charity, where one gives their own money, food, medicine, aid, or shelter to the needy.
Most Republicans believe in private charity.
Where Democrats get confused is "public charity" where:
That type of "charity" is more like a mafia protection racket than it is what is advocated in the Bible.
I agree that bibles describe private, not public charity.
The obstructionist republican fascists platform for themselves and all of their death cult members!!!
Virtually all illegal border crossings are made by people seeking better economic opportunity, and that is NOT asylum. One can understand why such people seek better economic opportunity, however that does not make them legal.
@TheMiddleWay Agree
This looks like the more mild version of Republican Jesus.
Yea, especially "do not kill, unless they really deserve it." Deserve it as in POC, non xtion, non evangelical, butt hurt my feelings, any part of LGBTQ, etc.
A few of the "attributes" listed for the Republican Party of J.C. match up very closely with the Australian Liberal/National Party as well.
For anyone wondering I was using SARCASM when I used the word "attributes" in relation to the Republican ( Rethuglian) Party btw.
Have to say, if I get hit, I am definitely going to hit back harder.
I agree, that turn the other cheek shit is for suckers and chumps....
@TomMcGiverin Given that I've tried the whole "turning the other cheek" thing, I think hitting back harder keeps me from continuing to get hit.
@KKGator Yup, with many or most people that are bullies or assholes, hitting back is the only thing they understand or are deterred by. Plus, it allows you to keep your self respect. Letting yourself be victimized only erodes that.
Hit me with your rhythm stick. Hit me, hit me, hit me.
@NostraDumbass No weapons, please.
The one at the bottom should read "Do not kill unless they are non-white or liberal, or both".
Or queer. Gay bashing is heartedly encouraged...
