It makes no sense at all. Jesus wouldnt be involved in that kind of stuff right? He would be fighting with others like the Republicans if he was.

Jesus was "not a meek, mild wimp in a white nightie"

Basically people who says things like that are trying to support their own agendas. I think Jesus would be critical of the political systems that we have established - his idea for a "regime" was pretty radical and subversive---according to his system, the last go first, the people who show up at the end of the day get paid the same as those who worked all day, and so on --what kind of politico-economic system is that? Over and over again Jesus tried to get people to catch the vision of a kingdom that was so unworldly it lay beyond human sights. And that is the interesting thing about Jesus -- he calls us to imagine a way of living that has never been tried in any political system.

There weren't Republicans or Democrats back in Jesus' day.

People of historical interest should be looked at in their own time period and not made to fit our conceptions of our own. Whether Jesus of Nazareth was a republican or a democrat is immaterial because neither existed in the time period he did.

Jesus would not get involved in politics when He was on this earth. He said render to Caesar what is Caesars and render to God what is Gods. So I don't believe He would be either one getting involved in this miserable conflict of interest. He had compassion on the people,love and caring. I really can't say either political party has this.

think of roughly it, it makes appropriate sense. For one component, it somewhat is comprehensible to desire to verify Jesus with at present's politicians as he occurred to have lived approximately 2000 years in the past and prefer it or no longer, he has achieved some wonderful issues in his life. In a deeper sense, his good call is getting used. For him to be linked to the two area could be a great reason to justify the action of their social gathering via asserting that Jesus could do such and such as a results of fact he replaced into/could have been a R / D. that is a similar explanation why we purchase into action picture star endorsement.

Jesus didn't care at all about the politics and nations of this world. All he focuses on in his teachings is behavior on the personal level, and the here-after.
