I would say Jesus would be more of a liberal by today's standards. If one has to look back to 2,000 years ago, he has by far been one of the most revolutionary figures to influence politics and religion. If Jesus' doctrinal beliefs are meant to govern the later generations and considering its liberal edge, shouldn't the Bible simply remain a flexible doctrine to address the changing times?

Jesus' ideas are revolutionary, atlhough much of it is cloaked in metaphors not meant to be taken litterally

Thanks for asking this question. Even though I don't believe in god, I truly believe some guy called Jesus existed. He was definately a challenger of protocol and as you said - a revolutionary. That is why his name has gone down in history and why the churches "elected" him the son of god. I don't believe he ever claimed to be, certainly not in the way that he is acknowledged today. Perhaps within the context of "we are all the sons and daughters of God" in other words to say that he was no one special, we are all equal. I just wish that we had some more accurate accounts of his life and what he did in those years that aren't accounted for in the bible - such an obvious whitewashing of his life. What did he do in his 20's? Surely these would of been his most radical, considering the era he lived in.

What have you read that would indicate this?
