Hate mail from suggestion that Jesus was a liberal

There's a website, www.jesusisaliberal.org, which suggests that Jesus was a liberal. (I'd go further and suggest that Jesus offered some views which were close to communism.) This site has provoked some interesting hate mail which seems somewhat at odds with what Jesus would do.

    Thanks for noticing our site.

    I also like to ask what I call Jesus Koans: "Who would Jesus Bomb?" and "Who would Jesus Torture?" and "What animals would Jesus exterminate and make extinct?" and "What kind of Automatic Weapon would Jesus own?" and "Would Jesus Kill first and let his Father sort them out?"

    The reactions can be fairly amazing.

    We've also had death threats - some implied, some very direct. It is stunning how much hate is espoused in the name of Jesus, Mohammed, etc.

    Dave, the t-shirts only came after we had enough requests for put in an order. In the past 2 years we've sold only about 475. The bumper stickers are far, far more popular.

    Bottom line, it's all about re-framing Jesus in His original light and intention.

    Spread the word. Thanks for visiting.

    Peace.

    Paul

    I wonder how much hate mail we'd generate if we started the site

    www.JesusWasAWhackJob.org

    I submit that the case for that is much stronger than that he was a liberal.
