Libs use Jesus when convenient and otherwise despise him and his followers.

Nothing new here.

Leftists despise Christianity. This is a pitiful attempt to convince Americans that Democrats are on the side of God instead of Satan. How about a commercial showing the funeral of a U.S.citizen killed by a drunk driver who was in this country illegally?


How about funerals for some of the dozens of murder victims of their 2020 rioting that caused more damage than any other civil rioting in history..

..as they STOLE the 2020 election

the criminals still wear the 2020 Democrat masks

If that is indeed the case, more power to them.

Yet in today’s fractured culture, any mass marketing campaign to promote eternal religious truths might as well have been a series of ads featuring Rorschach blots.

We live in a culture in which the once universal definition of what constitutes a “man” or “woman” is under assault.

As much it disturbs me to admit it, I often “get” you Hank. I think it may be sign I need intense psychological counseling.

Somehow the only hot topics they hit deal with conservative causes. They use a lot of #justice and #activism on there.

Did a little digging and the "movement" is paid for by the servant foundation. The servant foundation is from a church in Oklahoma that is united methodist. So given they havent shed the UNITED part they are a liberal activist group until proven otherwise.


How about making an ad at Christmastime about Mary having an unplanned pregnancy that she didnt abort? How about an ad about Joseph raising a son?


Why make a random ad about immigration given that immigration has nothing to do with salvation?

That's the stated purpose. They could have gone 100 directions without getting political, but that woke "Jesus was a refugee" commercial lost me. FWIW, this organization is funded by several mega-wealthy "conservatives", who no doubt have profited from cheap illegal labor

What is more likely:

1. Millions in Central America are fleeing wars and drug cartels that are trying to kill them and they aren't even safe in Mexico.

2. Millions in Central America are looking for free shite.

BTW, Mary and Joseph were not fleeing, they were traveling to Joseph's home town for the Roman census. The left is so disingenuous it is disgusting, insulting, and dangerous.

quote:

And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. This census first took place while Quirinius was governing Syria. So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city. Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife, who was with child. So it was, that while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered. (Luke 2:1-6)

On one hand they, the media, laugh and criticize Christians while on the other they want Christians to accept their agenda.
Same people that defend 0bama's, Pelosi's, and Biden's "Christianity," then ridicule Pence and Chris Pratt for actually being Christian.

At some point everyone has to learn that there are two sides to words like "inclusion", "tolerance", and even "discrimination."

They’re probably referring to this, not the census:


Matthew 2

The Magi Visit the Messiah

2 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi[a] from the east came to Jerusalem 2 and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.”

3 When King Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him. 4 When he had called together all the people’s chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Messiah was to be born. 5 “In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written:

6 “‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,
are by no means least among the rulers of Judah;
for out of you will come a ruler
who will shepherd my people Israel.’[b]”
7 Then Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the star had appeared. 8 He sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.”

9 After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen when it rose went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. 10 When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. 11 On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. 12 And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.

The Escape to Egypt

13 When they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up,” he said, “take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.”

14 So he got up, took the child and his mother during the night and left for Egypt, 15 where he stayed until the death of Herod. And so was fulfilled what the Lord had said through the prophet: “Out of Egypt I called my son.”[c]

16 When Herod realized that he had been outwitted by the Magi, he was furious, and he gave orders to kill all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two years old and under, in accordance with the time he had learned from the Magi.

I will give you the benefit of the doubt that you were clever enough to post obtuse angles on purpose, but pithy wit doesn't offer you any moral or intellectual superiority.

“Herod tried to kill Jesus so we should have open borders!” The end.

And if you don’t agree with this you are a homophobic racist bigot zealot!

Those behind the “He Gets Us” campaign say they’ll spend $100 million—donated by a small group of wealthy anonymous families—on the national launch, putting the campaign in the same financial arena as big-name brands like Old Navy, TD Ameritrade, and Mercedes-Benz.


They have moved beyond censorship into Newspeak is the fictional language of Oceania, a totalitarian superstate.

jesus gets us.com/ jesus.com, tv adverts are a Soros/opensociety/billmillinda/jesuit, attack on your emotions for illegal aliens. Prove me wrong.
