Who would Jesus have voted for?

I can't see Jesus voting for George Bush.

I'm thinking he would have voted Kerry.

I think he would have voted third party or abstained...

Jesus was a master of deception. He fooled the masses. He got them to believe in an imaginary cause. He'd vote for Bush.

If Jesus had married some rich lady and then dumped her for a richer lady, and then faded into oblivion with no one remembering him, I'd give the nod to Kerry.

There's more of a chance he'd be voting in the Iraq elections than American elections.

Can we have more "Who would <insert fictitious character here> have voted for?" polls please?

Santa? Darth Vader? Homer Simpson? Roger Rabbit? Dr. Venkman?

All those aren't even real people!

Besides, you don't have to click on it. It's not like you didn't know what the message was going to be about. But I guess it gives you a reason to whine about something.

Santa would have voted Bush...tax reasons alone.
Darth Vader would have killed both of them and put the Emperor in charge.
Homer Simpson....definitely Republican.
Roger Rabbit was so gay that he had to have supported Kerry.
Peter Venkman would probably have written in for Nixon. No way could he have casted a mundane real ballot.

Neither is Jesus. Which was kinda my point.
My other point being how rubbish this thread is. At best it's pointless. At worst its weak trolling. Bush/Kerry bullshit is SO last year

Yet you keep clicking on it. Which was my point. Physician heal thyself!

Or it could just read....Who hates Bush?
Who doesn't hate Bush?

/sigh

Probably himself

I doubt Jesus would have voted for either of those slimey fucks. Jesus from the little I recall of the Bible didn't tend to get involved in politics, seems he was mostly about spreading his message and leading by example.

What would frodo do?

tolkein > apostles.

If he would have voted he would have voted for the person who's policies were going to better take care of the masses, be no judgemental and definitely not warmongering. Heh that is exactly who the Jews expected their Messiah to be, a warrior. Jesus came with a totally different message focused on the Kingdom of God, not on the Kingdom of the Jews. It's funny how the majority of Christian "value voters" in this country missed the point of his message just like the Jews did 2000 years ago...

He would have voted for Kerry...

He would have voted for Bush. Look at all the business he's giving him!!

I think he would have smitten them both down, old testament style.

Jesus was a real person. He lived an breathed just like you and me.

Was he the son of god? thats up for debate. Be he surely did exist. Just as Buddha, Muhammad, Pontious Pilot, and any other ancient historical figure.

And he wouldve abstained from voting. His father is the supreme ruler, none other can claim authority over a population.

Whether he existed or not, he's been mythologized so much, no one will ever know what he was truly like and what he actually did or said, so you might as well consider him a mythical character.

Gotta back Kargyle on this.
Then again, He would have known the true hearts of both of these men and would have known the true intentions and the soul of both of them and would have cast his vote for one of the canidates for reasons that may be beyond our limited understanding as non-divine beings.

However, if He was here today, I'd like to think that we wouldn't need a voting system - we'd all be united under one God in and/or on our way to eternal rest... /sigh

God told him to go to war in Iraq so CLEARLY Jesus would vote for him.

Jesus would protest against capitalism, and spend time helping those in need, not waste time on a pointless election between two rich bastards.
