Let’s see: ‘Compare and contrast the actions of Jesus of Nazareth regarding the money-changers at the Temple, with the conduct of Christianist regarding the financial sector”

Not mush similarity that I can see.

For centuries it was a sin for a Christian to charge interest on money they lend. It is still a sin in the Islamic view.

Woodie Guthrie pointed out that if Jesus came today and preached what he preached in Gallilee, especially that bit about how the rich should sell all their material goods and give the proceeds to the poor, he would once again be laid in his grave by the preachers and the bankers and the soldiers that they hire. I don’t see much Christian about today’s “Christian” denominations, just a lot of hate, spite, and, well, evil. Which of course is why I am a Tuxologist rather than a “Christian”, since the Great Penguin, unlike the “Christian” God, is a pleasant rotund deity that pretty much says enjoy life and be most excellent to each other. Well, He would if He talked, which He doesn’t, since He’s a penguin, duh.

Well, Jams, that depends on the definition of ‘people’. OTOH, will voters in Arkansas and Georgia elect them? Alas, yes, they will.

I would think it was closer to 1590 than 1950, Ellroon, because most of them consider the majority of voters, women, to be property, not real people. They claim they don’t want Shiria law in the US and then they pass them, not knowing what they are doing is identical to what the Taliban and other Salafi groups are doing. Fundamentalists are all the same, no matter what religion.

I think it’s the lead in the Washington DC water…. no, actually, I think the Era of Stupid is upon us and the American Taliban is floating to the top of the septic think tank. Men who are seduced by power but have no brain power are being voted in and the first thing they try to do is contain them uppity wimmen folk and send all of us back to the wonderful days of the 1950s which existed only on television.

God help us if they get the majority….
