When will people stop saying that you can't be a Christian and a liberal? You can, I know lots of people who are. And anyway, Jesus was way above political parties. I wish people would stop asking this question. It's starting to sound ignorant.

True compassion comes from a willing heart, not the forced law, order, or tax of government. Jesus was all about what comes from your heart, not what you do under government compulsion. Jesus never suggested that you should intentionally be lazy or a burden on others; nor did he advocate sexual liberation which leads to out of wedlock births which are a burden on society and insure a life of misery for the offspring.
Liberals are tyrants at heart---they want to force us to live their way. They want to take our money to buy votes to impose their totalitarian methods. Thus, I would tend to favor "rendering Caesar" rather than "rendering unto him".
By leading lives of personal responsibility peoples' lives will be richer in every way; they will grow as individuals and achieve better for themselves and their families.
Thus, we should abolish the Entitlement State and replace it with a Personal Responsibility Society. I would think Jesus would want each person to do their very best; we should voluntarily help those who cannot help themselves. But if you want to force it on me, then war is justified!

I would say enjoy heel, but it is not nice for me to say that because I know you would love to jump all over that and say i can't be liberal and Christian, but you are headed down the wrong path.

I didn't realize that Jesus had liberal values. Was he for same sex marriage too? I must have missed that one. Maybe I should read the Bible one more time.

Christianity has inspired both modern conservative and (less directly, via Deism) liberal ideals. It's been a very influencial religion for 2000 years now.

Way to liberal?!! Are you kidding me. Read the bible. He does insist on people taking responsibility for themselves. There is more talk of hell than heaven in the bible. Most people will be going to hell. You call that being a bleeding heart liberal.

Jesus did teach personal responsibility. One can be understanding, loving, caring and tolerant while still trying to instill the importance of people helping themselves to others................

Stop using Jesus' name and His to justify your political views.
