"Jesus Was Against Guns"

By: Wes Messamore

I heard some talk from liberals over the weekend that Jesus was against guns.

Oh really?

Jesus was against guns?

The Founding Fathers didn't have modern rifles in their day, so those aren't covered by the Second Amendment, but Jesus Christ had an opinion about guns in the year 30!

lmao

And it just so happens to be the exact same opinion you have about them. Shocking!

Can you quote me some verses, Augustine?

Well here's what Jesus actually did have to say about virtue signaling:


"Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven." -Matthew 6:1 (NIV)

He also said to mind your business instead of trying to pick out the flaws with everyone else the way political propagandists do:


"Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?" -Matthew 7:3

Now although they didn't have guns back in those days (gun powder wouldn't be invented by Chinese ppl for another 900 years after Jesus died) –they did have swords.

And Jesus does talk about swords:


"But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one." -Luke 22:36 (NIV)

So he doesn't seem to have a problem with people bearing arms for their self defense.

He even says sell your coat to buy a weapon.

It is better to be shivering cold with a sword in your hand, than warm and weak.

This is in the Bible liberals. Please look it up before commenting on Jesus' beliefs.

Frankly I think all of y'all could probably benefit by dusting off the Bible and reading.

Some of the most powerful shit ever written.

Occupy Mordor or Destroy the Ring?

There has been mixed responses to Occupy Wall Street by libertarians. Some see the movement as a positive, while others see them as little more than lazy hipsters. But libertarians must be sensitive to why people feel the way they do about issues. The occupiers point out a legitimate concern that "the 1%" control vastly more power and wealth than "the 99%", and corporations have accumulated more power and privilege than is healthy for an open society. Some other concerns and demands are absurd, but the heart of the matter is on track. The question is why has this happened? While many on the left are quick to blame a nebulous thing called "greed", or lack of regulation, the matter is more complicated than that. This calls for a Lord of the Rings metaphor. Let's say that Sauron, the big cheese bad guy of Lord of the Rings, is the corporate hegemony. The 1%. Most people in Middle Earth agree that this is a problem, but there are a few differ...
