WORLD VIEWS: 10-country poll by leading newspapers shows world anger at Bush, even among traditional allies; Blair takes heat for move to relieve U.S. troops with British forces. Edward M. Gomez, special to SF Gate The Bush-****ters don't care about world opinion. They think we can make it entirely on our own. Frankly, if we're attacked again, I expect that most of the world will say, "You know, those arrogant *******s deserved it." We've sure come a long way under the Bush-****ters. -- Jesus was the ultimate liberal progressive revolutionary of all history. The conservative religious and social structure that he defied hated and crucified him. They examined His life and did not like what they saw. He aligned himself with the poor and the oppressed. He challenged the religious orthodoxy of his day. He advocated pacifism and loving our enemies. He liberated women and minorities from oppression. He healed on the Sabbath and forgave adulterers and prostitutes. He associated with drunks and other social outcasts. He rebuked the religious right of his day because they embraced the letter of the law instead of the Spirit. He loved sinners and called them to himself. Jesus was the original Liberal. He was a progressive, and he was judged and hated for it. It was the self-righteous religionists that he rebuked and he called them hypocrites. The primary issues of Christian Liberalism were birthed when Jesus spoke the profoundly prophetic words found in Matthew 25: 31-46. These scriptures reveal God's heart for the poor, the sick and other neglected people through out history. Christians should read this text and judge for themselves which of the two groups mentioned there more accurately reflect the political parties of today. His Liberalism lives on today and the issues have not changed much. |
