I believe Jesus was crucified on the cross for our sins. My question is did he die on that cross??? The Holy Bible was also written by Man just like all the new books that have been coming out about Jesus and Mary Magdeline!!! Jesus nor God wrote the Holy Bible and its been translated so many times, who knows what is real in it anymore. As you can see I have a lot of questions about religion now a days and I am doing my own research into it. I am spiritual and I do believe in God and Jesus don't get me wrong I just have a lot of questions now a days, and this all came about before Dan Brown even started writting the Da Vinci Code!!!
I think instead of putting Democrats or anyone else down, you should do something better with your time like your own research into the Bible...smiles. Your just showing us that Republicans are more Ignorant then ever. Good Luck and Take Care

I'm a Democrat and a Christian and I also know that the bible was written 50 years after Jesus died. Can you remember what you were doing fifty years ago? Thought so. The bible was written to provide stories of their time and to pass a few words of wisdom down to God's followers but it's not the end-all law book. By the way, how many times did Jesus die?

The Holy Bible Douay-Rheims Version
With Challoner Revisions 1749-52
1899 Edition of the John Murphy Company
IMPRIMATUR:
James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore, September 1, 1899.
Pope Damasus assembled the first list of books of the Bible at the Roman Council in 382 A.D. He commissioned St. Jerome to translate the original Greek and Hebrew texts into Latin, which became known as the Latin Vulgate Bible and was declared by the Church to be the only authentic and official version, in 1546.
The DR New Testament was first published by the English College at Rheims in 1582 A.D. The DR Old Testament was first published by the English College at Douay in 1609 A.D. The first King James Version was not published until 1611. This online DRV contains all 73 books, including the seven Deutero-Canonical books (erroneously called Apocrypha by Protestants). These seven books were included in the 1611 KJV, but not in later KJV Bibles.
The whole Douay-Rheims Bible was revised and diligently compared with the Latin Vulgate by Bishop Richard Challoner in 1749-1752 A.D. The notes included in the text were written by Dr. Challoner.
The DR Bible was photographically reproduced from the 1899 edition of the John Murphy Company, Baltimore, Maryland, by Tan Books in 1971. Eventually, this edition was optically scanned to produce a large text file which this publisher used for creating this website, with the aid of text-processing software.
One important goal of this project was to preserve the original text "as is", without making any changes in the wording, because the original text had the Imprimatur of James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore, dated Sept 1st 1899.
The text file was checked quite thoroughly by software written by the publisher for punctuation errors and verses out of order. The index was humanly checked for misspelled words and the corrections were made to the text. However, some spelling errors may still be present in the text. Many verses were out of order in the original file. These have been corrected.
Every effort was made to ensure that this online version is an exact match to the original printed version. No words were added or ommitted from the text, except for correcting errors caused by the scanning process. No words were rearranged. No verse numbers were changed, except in the case of Psalm 9.
Psalm 9 originally contained 21 verses and there were 2 versions of Psalm 10, numbering 1-18 and 1-8. This obviously caused a conflict, so it was decided to make the first Psalm 10 as the last part of Psalm 9 and renumber the verses 22-39. This retains the same numbering as all the Douay Rheims. Note, in the Protestant Bibles the numbering of Psalms 10 through 146 differs by one.

The biggest problem the democratic party has with Christianity is that so many of them have focused their careers on political aspects that are contrary to the teachings of most churches. It is not as bad in the southern states, but I notice it a lot out here in California.

Yes, because everything you read in books is true.
Not everyone believes the same things you do you know. And have you ever heard of the First Amendment? Or are you just a Moonie?

Well...first, you're wrong -- there are lots of christian democrats.
And second, as you already know, not accepting jesus as a "savior" has nothing to do with fear, and everything to do with logic and reason.
Finally -- what does jesus have to do with political parties? We (are supposed to) have no state-chosen religion in the US...;-)

Because we are afraid that Jesus might actually exist and we may go to Heaven. Yikes!
