Jesus Criticized For Lack Of Diversity Among Apostles​

Church·May 9, 2019 · BabylonBee.com

PORTLAND, OR — A leading New Testament scholar working at Unified Unity Divinity School has published a paper criticizing Jesus for a lack of diversity among the apostles He chose in the gospel accounts.

The woman, Dr. Diana T. Manger, pointed out that Jesus only chose Jewish males, refusing to implement diversity quotas for his group of disciples.

"Jesus chose all Jewish, cisgendered, able-bodied males: white supremacy, much?" she said as she presented her paper before a group of progressive scholars who had promised not to disagree with her. "It's obvious that Jesus was a nationalistic, xenophobic, hate-filled fearmonger."

Dr. Manger suggested that Jesus should have chosen more women, more transgender disciples, a disciple in a wheelchair, and at least one woman who is 1/1024th Native American. "The sickeningly homogenous group of disciples should have looked more like the Burger King Kid's Club," she said to applause.

"It really hurts Jesus's witness that he did not enforce 21st-century diversity quotas on his disciples," she said.

Manger has called for a ban on all Bible reading until the Lord agrees to revise history to conform to her standards.

Now that is absolutely ridiculous. The amount of diversity back then was minimal because there was almost no immigration. People could only travel as far as they could walk in a day or travel on a camel or a horse. Most people who appeared in different areas at the time were slaves because they had no choice.

Wait..........wut?

No immigration cuz they had to walk all day?

Meanwhile, in the Americas, half a world away and divided by two great oceans..................................................

The DEI cult is what is ridiculous.

The dirty little secret is, the calling of Jesus was to first to be to the Hebrew nation, and then later expand towards the rest of the world.

Hence, he had to pick all Hebrews, which he very easily could have picked people of other nationalities had he so desired.

As for only picking men, it is not arguable that there was a purpose behind this as well. It is up for you to figure that out I suppose.

Actually, I saw a production of Jesus Christ Superstar, and Judas was definitely Black.

And of course the late JC spoke favorably about a Samaritan once - even if it was a hypothetical, fictitious Samaritan.

 

[norwegen]

Doesn't the Bible say he picked some sheep, too?

You can't figure it out? At that time they didn't even know the Americas, Asia, the entire southern part of Africa. The only thing they knew about Europe were the places the Roman Armies had conquered. People back then lived their lives where they were born because they couldn't afford to go anywhere because they didn't have the money or means to move somewhere else. Yes their were traders who traveled but that was only in the known world until Marco Polo went on tour.

"He came to his own (the Jews) and his own received him not."

He then went to the "lost sheep of the house of Israel".

Yes, DEI goes way back, doesn't it?

I dunno. The Israelites were pretty mobile from the start.

Familiarity breeds contempt

The people that saw him grow up could never divorce themselves from the boy they saw grow up.

This is why his own brothers did not convert, until the very end of their lives.

It has NOTHING to do with race, sex, or anything DEI.

Thanks for playing.

To suggest that ancient people did not travel much is astoundingly ignorant of any ancient history we have today.

But then, Left wing schools only teach today that America and Israel are the source of all totalitarian Nazism in the world today, and without them slaves would never have existed either, and there would be no poverty as well, so we must destroy them both.

Then they pretend that their own socialist and Marxist ideologies were not responsible for hundreds of millions of deaths last century and is the cure for all our ills today.

As for only picking men, it is not arguable that there was a purpose behind this as well. It is up for you to figure that out I suppose.

Consider one of the primary differences between men and women: Compassion and empathy, based on feelings. Jesus gave the men specific instructions: Go proclaim his message in the towns and villages. If that town did not listen or reject them, shake the dust from their sandals and move on. It is more difficult for women to turn their backs on anyone. They would begin arguing that those who rejected the message should not have a worse judgment than Sodom and Gomorrah. They should be given food, medical care, nice living quarters, and good clothing. Paid for, of course, by the people who had shaken the dust from their sandals.

What about occupation?

Tax collector. At least one retiree. One who was with the Iscari gang.

Yes, I remember the story of the tax collector and the Pharisee.
But was he an apostle?

A black one and a white one.
…. and a female transgender Eskimo would also fit in nicely.

According to tradition, yes.
