Jesus’ views wouldn’t fly with today’s Right

If Jesus came down as a man today, Donald Trump would hate him because Jesus was a radical, non-violent revolutionary who was surrounded by hookers and crooks.

He was not American, never spoke English, and was antiwealth, anti-death penalty and anti-public prayer. He was never anti-gay, was never judgmental, never called the truly poor lazy, never justified the use of torture, never denied food to the hungry, never fought for a tax cut for the wealthiest Nazarenes, and never asked the sick for a co-pay.

Jesus was a dark-skinned, homeless, community-organizing, anti-slut-shaming Middle Eastern Jew.

Jesus is everything Trump doesn’t like or downright hates in a person.

The president’s actions and words speak volumes about his true beliefs.

May God have mercy on Trump’s soul. CATHY DEREIMER, PEACHTREE CORNERS
