Is this what Jesus would do?

Description

I have repeatedly asked Christians who support the Iraq war outright, over and over, can you picture Jesus Christ picking up a rifle and heading for a firefight in downtown Fallujah? Or piloting a B-2 bomber and guiding J-bombs on civilian heads? And recently the answer has been a rousing Ted Nugent-style "HELL YES!" -BUT! That's not the image you see Christians portraying Christ in. You see modern Christian art he's always playing sports with kids, hugging kittens, performing miracles, or just hovering over people in some strange ethereal way. No one portrays him in committing the very same acts many Christians claim he would condone and perform in his name.

So lets' put it out there. Let's put a rifle in his hands and get Jesus Christ worked up about killing ‘skinnies', ‘ragheads’, ‘head-choppers’ and other various non-Christian foreigners and see if they're comfortable with it.

Listen, if they support war, they are not real christians (no offense to them). If they were, they would know they are supposed to love their neighbor as themselves. They would know Jesus hates to see his beloved one destroying each other. They would know Jesus is offering the gift of salvation and as christians, our job is to spread the word.
