Hi erin, hope you're feeling well.
 
Hmm, lots of guys named "Jesus" try to come across the border....okay, lame joke, I know. Honestly, if Jesus were here, I think he'd be horrified at a lot of things, but trying to keep illegal immigrants out of this country would be waaay down on the list, if there at all.
 
I think that we've built a world where anyone is desperate to feed themselves or their loved ones, or combat sickness, would anger him more than anything.

Status: offline 		ya know...whenever i see "WWJD" on anything (bumper stickers, t-shirt, braclets, etc.) i think to myself (since verbalizing my statement tends to upset those who display these things): Jesus would come down...take one look around and throw up his hands and say "you're all on your own...it's a lost cause"...but hey...that's just me.

    We don't know about Jesus, but the Bible is clear that God drives a gas-guzzling muscle car and the disciples a Honda.

     In Genesis, we find that when Adam and Eve fell from grace, "God drove them from the Garden in a Fury."

     The book of Acts tells us that the Disciples "went everywhere in one Accord."  (I'm guessing it would have been the wagon.)

Hmmmm....not really sure but I would hope that He is careful to watch our for off duty cops driving at the speed of light. I wonder what the sentence would be for T-boning Jesus....even if he is an illegal?

i have to agree with you, michael. It seems that those who need to wear their religion on their cars, clothes, etc are the most clueless as to what tolerance means.

While I agree in general with Michael, in that if Christ came down an saw bumper stickers and a * cheapening* of Christ,  he would be pretty sad; I think your intolerance statement  is very inaccurate.

I wear a cross around my neck, so that maks me intolerant, but one who wears a scarf on her head or a sari is tolerant ?

You adorn your body with a tatoo of the BDSM symbol, and another adorns theirs with a portrait of Christ, and that means you are tolerant and the other is not?

One who wears a hajib is more tolerant than the one who wears a habit?

Sorry, some people choose to wear symbols of their own faith. That does not, in and of itself, make them exclusive or intolerant of others practices.

The fact that you seem to have a problem with Christians wearing a symbol of their faith... seems a bit intolerant to me.

PS: the use of the word " cheapening of Christ" is my POV and my opion only

Status: offline 		I don't really believe, at least not in the traditional sense. I kinda think modern day christianity is just royally screwed up. Not surprising the state of the world today. However, my opinion is that A. he may have already come and said "God, these people are so fucked up I quit!" OR, he started to come and did a U-turn and said "let em keep self destructing and I will come back later to pick up the pieces"
