Yeah, dude, except for the MAIN PART of liberalism, Jesus would be a liberal! 

That's some seriously bad logic.

Abortion is the "main part of liberalism"? Are you 12?

I know, right?

Truth is, liberals and conservatives all want the same things. Peace of mind for themselves and their families, better infrastructure, less poor people, more money, peace, etc. They just disagree on the means of accomplishing these things, making the political side of this conversation a little meaningless. If taxes are the only way to meet these needs, then he'd either be for it or just have an impossible amount of work cut out for him.

Don't crucify me for this, but I don't find too many differences between the red team and blue team when it comes to their intentions.

Abortion is a huge part of American Liberalism. The notion that Jesus would be a Liberal when Liberalism stands for Abortion is illogical.

You can't separate Abortion from Liberalism. They are a part of the same Dismal Tapestry.

The "Jesus Would be a Progressive Liberal" crowd are preaching illogical non-sense that can't stand any kind of analytical scrutiny.

He was a radical revolutionary for his time and place. It is certain that he did NOT preach abortion of the fetus.
It's also pretty clear that he would not subscribe to the legal basis for distinguishing abortion from murder, which is that the fetus is not a "person" under common law.

But, people are entitled to their opinions.

PS I am "Sheldon Cooper" 12.
