Keep reading that Bible, Laura, eventually you'll find this:

Then said He unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. ~Luke 22:36

Here endeth the lesson.

In that case, I guess Zimmerman would shoot laser beams from his eyes. B-P Seriously, this is getting rediculous.

When Christ comes again, His rule will be “with a rod of iron” (Psalm 2:9; Revelation 2:27 among others). Talk about no understanding, never mind no faith.

You mean ‘What if Zimmerman acted more like Reginald Denny?’

If Martin had acted just a little like Christ, he would be alive now.

You mean when Jesus beat the hoo-hoo out of the bankers with a scourge?

The bankers were “unarmed”.

Or as Robin Williams put it, “When Jesus comes back, he’s not going to look like Ted Nugent, uh uh, he’s coming back as Charles Bronson, and he’s going to be gd’d po’d.”

While we’re being more “Christ-like” Laura, how about cutting George a break as well? Like going after the BPs who put a bounty on GZs head? Or let him have a fair trial without the media slanting everything? Or go ahead and release the bad stuff in St. Skittles background so that we can form a more informed opinion?

What if Trayvon had been more like Christ and less like a street thug?

...and cheerfully engage Trayvon in conversation, ...

Hard to do when the first thing Trayvon does is cold cock you in the nose then jump on top of you to "ground and pound" you. The blood pouring down the back of your throat tends to inhibit clear speech. Laura, you're a moron!

This crap is getting ridiculous. Recently it was Travon Martin = Dred Scott. Now it’s WWZD?

Maybe he would mentor black children for free?

Maybe he would protest the police's lack of interest in prosecuting a guy that beat a homeless black man?

Maybe he would look in on neighbors who had been terrorized by home invaders?

Maybe he would volunteer to spend time watching out for his neighbors?

Actually, it doesn't end there.

Jesus stopped the fighting and healed the injured.

Read on a little further to Luke 22:49-51

When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.
