Fact Check: Jesus Was NOT An ‘Undocumented Immigrant’ (And Also, Joseph And Mary Weren’t Homeless)
It’s that time of year, when ignorant liberals try to turn Christmas into a political talking point. We can expect, for example, a repetition of the claim that Jesus and Mary were homeless. This popular Democratic Party holiday theme was pioneered by the Rev. Jesse Jackson:
Every Christmas season we hear the inevitable revisionist version of the Christmas story in order to further government programs. Jesse Jackson was the first to turn Joseph and Mary into a “homeless couple” when he claimed that Christmas “is not about Santa Claus and ‘Jingle Bells’ and fruit cake and eggnog,” of which all Christians would agree, but about “a homeless couple.” . . . He repeated his “homeless couple” theme at the 1992 Democratic Convention. . . .
Hillary Clinton, in comments critical of former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s homeless policies, sought to remind all of us that “Christmas celebrates ‘the birth of a homeless child.’”This is obviously false. Joseph and Mary had a home in Nazareth. The reason they were in Bethlehem was because the government wanted to tax them, a policy which required them to go to Bethlehem. Trying to turn this into an argument for voting Democrat is about deceiving fools (which is true, of course, of all arguments for voting Democrat).
Oh the vaunted Reverend Jackson. Former king of the Race Pimps, before AL “Pimp My Hair” supplanted him………Go read it all
If Jackson was a reverend the woods are full of them.
The truth is that Paul, who wrote a great deal of the new testament, was a jewish revolutionary who wanted to bring down the Roman Empire because of the Roman occupation of Palestine. The best introduction to this is The Jesus Hoax, by Professor David Skrbina.
Formerly I was an Agnostic, but after reading this and other, more scholarly works, I’ve become a militant, right wing Atheist, who’s looking forward to seeing the collapse of this fraudulent scam, and the related ones(judaism and islam). I’m currently plotting out a series of novels where Rome never succumbed to the Lies, maintained her civilization, and marched out to the stars before 1000 CE. Yes, Rome could have maintained what we call Western Civilization without the opium of organized religion.
