Would Jesus Like Today’s GOP?

William K. Wolfrum wrote a piece last year that was picked up just now by TPM, called “Jesus Christ Quits Christianity After Viewing Republican Platform.”  When I Tweeted this earlier, I received nasty comments from some conservatives.

But, of course. Wolfie makes his case.

Reached for comment at a West Hollywood coffee shop, Christ said that he couldn’t deal with a world that so misinterpreted his words and actions.

“They mention the word ‘faith’ 12 times in their platform,” said Christ. “Do they think we’re idiots or something?”

Christ went on to say that he had grown tired of being portrayed as a “marauding archangel of vengeance,” and that he held out little hope that the world would ever accept his message of peace.

“There’s a new breed of Christian out there that seems to think I represent free-for-all capitalism and slaying my enemies,” said Christ, munching on an arugula quiche. “I mean, they made Isaiah into a Cold War-era strategist, for Dad’s sake. Did they even read the New Testament?”

The Christ did say, “We had a good run.”
