How would Jesus vote?

I think that we are lucky in the UK that religion doesn't play a huge roll in our politics, especially when compared to the US.

I have never really got my head around why in the US Christianity seems to equal the right (Republican party), I have always though that Jesus would have been more left wing rather than right.

So would Jesus have voted for Trump or Clinton? Remain or Leave? May or Corbyn?

Let's have a heated debate!

I would think Jesus would be more left-wing. Maybe he would vote Green?

Theologically of course he would not have taken part in any form of voting.

You might not believe that he was the son of God, but he was a real man.

I believe he was a real human being who brought a message of love, respect, kindness and goodness to the world.

Some on here could do with learning from that example.

Given the 4 examples of Jesus' teachings I cited, your answer speaks volumes. It really does.

I think Jesus would be against the bombing of innocent children'women and men in their own homeland's and wise enough to know our government's are the real evil racist's.

Err no there's quite a bit of evidenced to conclude a chap called Jesus of Nazareth existed.... Just not much evidence that he performed any miracles or anything else

There is no hard evidence to say Jesus existed that I can find, All I can find is testimony of him from people who lived around 100 years after he supposedly died.

There are no eyewitenss accounts he lived !!!

The closest seem to be St Paul's letters, probably written somewhere between AD 50-100 and before the main New Testament gospels. The letters link to Jesus via a couple of direct steps which might suggest a short enough link in the oral tradition that they are based in fact - then again 50 years is quite a long time.

.

There's no hard evidence that Plato or Aristotle existed everything wrote about them was wrote a thousand years after their deaths.

The evidence suggests a chap called Jesus of Nazareth existed around 30ad.

Even Richard Dawkins admits that!.

.

.

However that's all the evidence suggests, no walking on water, no feeding masses.

However I like what Plato is reported to have said and wrote and I find nothing bad in what this chap Jesus offered either!.

Your first mistake is assuming organised religion is about the humane values we ascribe to "Jesus".

Are you a Christian?.....if so do you regularly attend church?

Christians are to blame for the crumbling of christianity, in the main because they are not believers......
