(December 10, 2013 at 3:12 pm)I am God Wrote: I do find it odd that Christians seem to cling to the Republican party. I don't think Jesus would have been in favor of Assault Weapons and cutting spending on programs that feed and shelter the poor. But modern Christian/Republicans seem to be nuts for such ideas.
I wonder if Jesus would have been a democrat?
Actually - the claim that christians are republicans does not hold water
IF the Kennedy family is a representation of Democrats - they are catholics.
In fact - for the first two hundred years of our country - the majority of politicians of ALL parties were Xtians - and still are today.
And I note that the two Presidents who were the most openly not religious were Abraham Lincoln - who did not belong to a religion even if he attended the one of his wife occasionally - and Ronald Reagan - who did belong to a religion but rarely worshipped.
I suggest that a person who would say that to follow him - one would have to give his worldly possessions to charity - is NOT a republican. However - since the christ is not proven to be more than a MYTH - one should not care what a fictional character would be.
