What Political Party Would You Put Jesus In According To His Deeds While On Earth?

[AmericanFirst]

Jesus was a Zealot and was the leader of a group of rebellious Jews who wished to overthrow the Roman yoke. He surrounded himself with bodyguards and assassins, Peter and Judas to name two, and today might be viewed as a religious extremist and threat to the social order. The Romans viewed him as such , as did the Sanhedrin, and their solution was to execute him. He was outside political parties, as any rebel is, and instead created his own faction. He was liberal in some ways,( share the wealth, admit women to the inner sanctums), and conservative in others ( maintain slavery, obey all Judaic Laws ).
I think he would cringe at the conservative Christian, movements of today, and oppose the Tea Party and reject Republican platforms in their entirety. He would lean towards Socialism or Democrats, but would probably never join a political party at all. that's how I see him, anyway.

Let go of satans yoke and see the truth. Otherwise, LIAR!!!

I would say Jesus is more liberal.

Most of us are have read the historical accounts of Jesus. If you could put him in a political party today according to those deeds which one would it be and why?

This should be fun. Would you call him a Republican, Democrat, Liberal, Neo-Con?

tread lightly, his kingdom wasn't in this world.

 

[Woyzeck]

He'd join the Peoples' Front of Judea.

No party actually follows the teachings of Him, no matter how.much one particular party thinks they do

 

[Father Time]

If we had someone who could make food out of nothing and give it to the poor I think the Dems would agree we wouldn't need as much welfare then.

Hell he'd probably run on his own and just say

"I can feed you if you're poor and give you free health care through magic. Those puny mortal candidates can't work miracles so vote for me."

exactly

I think his preaching of peace would exclude him from being conservitive.

Which political bent got America into all of the major foreign wars of the 20th century?

The Kaiser, Hitler and Bin Laden?

none of them. politics and religion don't mix.

No, remember what Jesus said about Caesar. He never said Religion and politics don't mix.

 

[rdean]

"Render unto Caesar" was NOT a huge endorsement of government in general.

I suspect that Jesus would be disinclined to be a part of any political party.

That wasn't the question.

 

[Poli_Sigh]

If Jesus were here today, he would not join either Political Party. In fact, I'm not even sure he'd call himself a Christian.
