[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jesus was crazy. He literally spread his religion around the globe and said rich men could not get into heaven. Rich men were like passing a camel through the “eye of a needle.”

We don’t have either of those items in the US. But the idea is that it’s really hard to get into heaven and enjoy eternal love if you are rich!

That is why we shut it all down. Pro poor in that agency. America is not pro poor at all any more. Peace corps is the worst .  I don’t know why they didn’t bring those kids home yet. [/quote]

There is a lot of truth in this post. The declining influence of mainstream churches and the teachings of Jesus have contributed greatly to our current situation, not just shutting down USAID but also Trump in general. Nowadays it seems like most people are religious wackos (like Vance and his twisted form of Catholicism), atheists, or in some sort of wellness cult. There is a lot of blame to go around for this turn of events, including the Catholic Church not keeping its house clean (to say the least) but part of what we are seeing today is the result of people becoming unmoored from any sort of moral code.  Organized religion doesn’t have to provide that moral code, but for a lot of people it did, and now there is a vacuum.[/quote]

Jesus would be considered extremely woke by today’s standards. I don’t think most Christians would approve.[/quote]
+1 He was the OG SJW.  He taught about compassion and reaching marginalized groups, taking care of the poor, welcoming foreigners.   However,  He did not care about politics.  But, He did go against the Judaic law and performed a miracle "work" on the Sabbath.  So, He was also a law breaker when man's law went against God's work.[/quote]

Sorry did he order the government to redirect tax money to his causes? Or did he raise that himself? [/quote]
