Why are Christians rightists?

Christians have almost always very strong right-wing political views. Where do they get these views from? Show me, please, where in the Bible it is written that a Christian should vote for the conservatives. Where does it say that an unregulated market is better than a mixed economy. Where does it say that banks should be unregulated? Where does it say that the army should have access to unlimited resources? Jesus didn't say anything about health insurances or day care.

The right-wing agenda arose many centuries after Jesus Christ. Most Christians live by ideas and values that are not christian.

Sleepwalkers

You have been fooled. You are under a spell.

I'm not joking. We are brainwashed, all of us; hypnotized, duped, deceived. Some believe that they are saved, other believe that life is meaningless. Some follow their political leaders or spiritual teachers, others follow their commanders. Some follow their peer group, others obey their parents.

Some believe that that God is like a stern father, others believe that God is a fantasy. Some believe that they have awakened, others believe that they are useless. We are deceived by our beliefs, all of us.

God is not good

God is a vengeful, jealous and wrathful being. God is unjust, evil and small-minded. God is like a mad king, a tyrant, an afghan warlord.

If you love him by all your heart and pray to him sincerely he may forgive you and give you eternal life, but if you reject him, he will send you to a furnace to burn for eternal ages.

You may believe that God is good. Where did you get that idea from? Did you get it from the Bible or do you see goodness in nature? Have you read the Bible? Have you looked at life and nature?



2 Thes 1:8-9 (NIV) He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will be punished with everlasting destruction...

Nahum 1:2 (Amp) The Lord is a jealous God and avenging, the Lord avenges and He is full of wrath; the Lord takes vengeance on his adversaries and reserves wrath for his enemies.

Mat 7:14 (NIV) "Enter in through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow is the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."
