So the Son of God, capable of curing chronic the diseases of people who merely touched his garment, would have need of Caesar’s Obamacare?

“Hummmm, in my bible Jesus provides a bunch of healing and health care but never once suggested government mandated socialized medicine.”

He certainly doesn’t chastise “the community” in the Good Samaritan parable; He doesn’t think highly of those who pass him by without taking any action, but He certainly doesn’t think the whole town should kick in to pay the innkeeper who cares for the man until the Samaritan returns.

“Charity is all about government coercion, not free will or grace, that’s the real Christian message.”

That’s a good point, and one that makes it very easy for me to avoid giving to charity in the traditional sense. My taxes are already used to do it involuntarily, while I feed my family by shopping for groceries with a credit card.

Jesus would also support the Dallas Cowboys, the New York Yankees, Mountain Dew, BMWs, peanut butter, ice lake fishing, vitamin C, the Wall Street Journal, domineering women, French’s Mustard, and soft toilet paper.

People who sit around thinking about Jesus to this extent....probably haven’t stepped inside of a church in twenty years.


And probably have not read a bible in much longer than that.

In the first place in order to put Obama care in place there has to be a lot of stealing.

And that is a no, no, even a left wing nut should know that.
