Of course, because Jesus was well known for his drug use, love of shitting on police cars, and public sex.
(Newsbusters) — On Washington Post’s On Faith blog, Daily Beast contributor Lisa Miller teased a piece about Occupy Wall Street with a worthy question: “What would Jesus think about Occupy Wall Street?” Her answer was simple, and predictably liberal: “The Jesus of history would love them all.”
In a piece titled “Jesus at Occupy Wall Street: ‘I feel like I’ve been here before,'” Miller portrayed the protestors as wretched outcasts, whom God would embrace because of their misery: “Born with little means into a first century world, the historical Jesus might feel right at home with the very aspects of the occupation that so many 21st century observers consider gross: the tents, the damp sleeping bags, the communal kitchen. Jesus would have sympathy, I think, with the campers’ efforts to keep a small space sanitary in the absence of modern plumbing.”
Poor and wretched outcasts, bringing $5500 laptops to protests.
Miller did concede that the protestors didn’t really concern themselves with God or religion. “The protestors don’t talk much about Jesus or God. Nor do they offer explicit guidance on transcendent, higher principles.”
