    I was trying to remember some bible quotes from jesus where he said something to the effect that he is not concerned with the political concerns of mankind but rather the spiritual concerns, so I did a Google search for "Jesus on Politics". This is one of the results: Comparsion shop for Jesus And Politics at BizRate. Compare stores & find low prices on Books & Magazines. Read product reviews before buying a Jesus

              Perhaps you were originally looking for: “Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s”

              I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended. I am absolutely certain I don't want to live in a world in which you would never be offended. Dave

                On a side note, it's curious how disinterested in "major social issues" Jesus actually appeared to be. At that time, fellow Jews were crucified for minor offences like stealing; and yet we find no New Testament remarks - from Jesus or his followers - regarding "cruel and unusual punishment", etc. Why? I would tentatively suggest it's because in God's eyes the punishment is not the issue - the crime is. But it's a deep subject...

                I say its because this is a state matter, and he was changing religion, not the social state. Hence, the spiritual and not material concerns.

                This statement was never false.

                                Yes. It's supposed to make fun of Christianity and Christians. Coming from a couple of leftists who espouse tolerance, I'm shocked...SHOCKED that you would mock Christianity like that. :rolleyes:

                                      Tell ya what.Jesus wouldn't have had a problem with a statue portraying him as a smiling, good natured guy. He'd probably want to be remember as a being who brought joy and hope to the world.

At that time, fellow Jews were crucified for minor offences like stealing; and yet we find no New Testament remarks - from Jesus or his followers - regarding "cruel and unusual punishment", etc. Why? I would tentatively suggest it's because in God's eyes the punishment is not the issue - the crime is.

                                        Ah yes, stealing is horrendous but torturing someone to death...no biggy. Doesn't Christian morality suck?

                                          Tell ya what.Jesus wouldn't have had a problem with a statue portraying him as a smiling, good natured guy. He'd probably want to be remember as a being who brought joy and hope to the world.

                                          I get really annoyed when people presume to know what I think or feel. Cant imagine what 2000 years of that must be like
