Funny how Jimmy Carter was a true, "born again Christian" and he is
maligned by the RW-Christian funddies. But Bush, whose every action is anti-Christ-like is worshiped by those fools.

I guess the funddies don't even realize that Jesus Christ's economic program would have been Socialist.

1. Jesus was a socialist.
Of course he was. Look at his life...chasing the moneychangers out of the temple. Tending to the less fortunate in life.

All of his works, all of his words point to a man who embodied socialism.

It's a pity the ultra right-wing fundementalists who loudly invoke his name don't seem to acknowledge that obvious fact.

2. Who would Jesus tax? Who would Jesus bomb? Torture?
Which veterans benefits would Jesus cut?
Which Veterans hospitals would Jesus cut back?
Which soldier's funeral would Jesus attend?
Which 57 year old reservist would Jesus backdoor draft?
Who would Jesus secretly detain and hide from the Red Cross?

4. Yes...Jesus WOULD give tax cuts to the ultra-wealthy.
In a fevered right-wing fundementalist's dreams.

3. I know its obvious
maybe he was more traditional on like social issues but economically Christ was very socialistic. I know many of you dont like south park because of its libertarian leanings but Stan was right, lets celebrate Christ's life not his death, what he taught. Speaking of that episode, it was hilarious, Mel Gibson was insane as is Cartman.
