What supreme and utter nonsense. Jesus wasn't "homeless." And the government was more like the Democrats, imposing a burdensome requirement that everyone go to their city of origin to be taxed. But for the taxation, Jesus would have been born in his parents' home. Joseph and Mary wouldn't have been forced onto the road, looking for space at an inn.
Jackson is a moron. He's always using big words that he obviously doesn't understand. He apparently doesn't know much about the Bible, either. If he were white, he would have been laughed off the national stage a long time ago.
You're exactly right. It was because of a brutal centralized government TAX COLLECTORS that Jesus was born in a manger.
If Jesse and the nitwits news people ever read their Bible they would know better.
Matthew 2:11 And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.
Jesus would never have asked for anything from any government or city...his kindness would have enabled him to stay at anyone's home and to supper with those who had food aplenty. There is not one exampel that the Rev Jackson can use that would ever suggest that Jesus would have been homeless or in need of state care. Only a fool like Jackson would suggest such.
If I were Jackson, I'd be ashame to say such things. It really proves the level that he has sunk to the past five years. Numerous companies now shut the door on the Rainbow "screw" crew...those tricksters out to take company money to run the Jackson enterprise (a bottomless pit of waste). There is plenty that Jesus would say about the Rainbow crew...but it would be a harsh criticism of their foolish nature. But Jackson wouldn't want the public to see that side of their operation.
