| - Republican Jesus is the central figure in the Republican religion and is the Jesus worshiped by wingnuts. It is highly important to note the following facts about Republican Jesus:
* Trademarked slogan: "Feelin' blue? Jesus hates you."
* Is one of the most influential non-existent people on Earth, second only to William Shatner.
* Although Republican Jesus hails from Bethlehem, his wardrobe consists of clean cut $900 suits (as pictured right), patriotic American T-shirts, Tennessee Titans wear, and a variety of novelty shirts like "I ♥ NY" and "God hates fags". He also sports a trendy cheap rubber W.W.G.W.B.D. bracelet.
* He is most certainly white-skinned (as pictured right) even though he (unfortunately) comes from the Middle East. This is seen by Republicans as the Light in the land of darkness. Despite this, Republican Jesus is a natural-born American Citizen.
* His name is most certainly not pronounced Hey-zeus. He is NOT a damn border-hoppin' brownie! Republican Jesus shares many superficial qualities with the biblical Jesus, and in fact a minority of historians believe the two are actually the same figure. However, a growing body of evidence suggests that Republican Jesus was actually created in 1964 aboard a Goldwater campaign bus east of Flagstaff from the bones of Aldophus B. Huxley, and was recognized as the one true Republican messiah in 1980, in which role he continues to this day. Between 1980 and 1988, Republican Jesus was famously portrayed by the 50s B-movie actor Ronald Reagan. Some of the more significant differences between the two Jesuses' philosophies:
* The biblical Jesus preached at length about renouncing worldly possessions and giving to the poor. Republican Jesus believes that such handouts merely encourage the poor to be lazy, and that Christian charity is better practiced through massive tax breaks for the wealthiest citizens, who could then be expected to let the money "tinkle down" to the poor in the form of honest, if low-paying, jobs at upright Republican institutions like Wal-Mart. Walmart is partly owned by the Clintons.
* Whereas the biblical Jesus is not known to have ever addressed the subject of homosexuality at all, let alone gay marriage, homosexuality is just about all Republican Jesus ever talks about. Indeed, in contrast to the biblical Jesus' instruction to "love thy neighbor," Republican Jesus specifically commands his flock to "hate thy neighbor, unless thou art sure he is not one of those fucking degenerate ass-bandits." After delivering this commandment Republican Jesus then immediately heads for the nearest airport men's room looking for some very holy, very Republican, very hot man-on-Savior, "wide-stance" action. (Italics in the original.)
* Likewise, the biblical Jesus' views on abortion are unknown, whereas Republican Jesus made his feelings clear in the Parable of Harry Blackmun, in which a Supreme Court justice votes to legalize abortions and is subsequently cast into a pit of liquid fire for all eternity. Republican Jesus teaches that abortion is a mortal sin that can only be stopped by private government corporations keeping tabs on every women's sexual activities and childbirths. Blasphemers who say otherwise deserve even worse a fate than Harry Blackmun. Republican Jesus will throw these sinners into a pit of Richard Nixon clones for eternity and beyond.
* The biblical Jesus threw the money changers out of the Temple. Republican Jesus welcomed them in, even going so far as to open the first known church inside a Wal-Mart.
* Similarly, the biblical Jesus condemned usury. Republican Jesus authored the Federal Reserve Act, is president of the World Bank and serves on the board of directors of the International Monetary Fund.
* The biblical Jesus spent most of his time among lepers, prostitutes, and other people who were shunned by society. Republican Jesus is notoriously afraid of AIDS, which he believes can be contracted in such ways as shaking hands with an infected person or using the same toilet seat, so he spends most of his time at the gun club or at home watching NASCAR races on television. Republican Jesus frequently talks about his intention to start donating money to hospice organizations or the Red Cross, but there is no evidence that he has ever done so.
* In the Gospel of Matthew, the biblical Jesus says: "Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust." In the equivalent passage in the Gospel of George, Republican Jesus says: "Ye have heard that it hath been said: Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you. But I say unto you, Send ye those Iraqi camel jockeys back unto the Stone Age before they do get it into their filthy rag-wrapped heads to do the same to you; send ye a rain of cruise missiles on the unjust sand niggers, and make a sun of nuclear fire rise upon their evil asses. If anyone doth ask, just say they had weapons of mass destruction."
* One story of the bible tells of an incident where a woman who had been caught in the act of adultery was about to be stoned to death by a crowd. According to the book of John, the biblical Jesus forgives the woman and says to the crowd: "Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone!" In the GOP Gospel of George, Republican Jesus says this too, but then picks up the largest stone he can find with the most jagged edges, and throws it in the face of the skanky slut that cheated on her master at point blank range. It is written that Republican Jesus then turned to the crowd and said: "Thou may now proceed to stone this vile promiscuous whore!" And so it came to pass as the loose bitch died that day from internal bleeding and was doomed to forever rot in the unforgiving flames of Republican Hell. As a result she was finally able to afford health insurance.
* Biblical Jesus was merely disappointed upon Judas' kiss of betrayal. Republican Jesus on the other hand punched him out, called him a homo-fascist and demanded an AIDS test.
* Biblical Jesus delivered his message from the streets and hilltops, Republican Jesus required megachurches and oil company-sponsored political campaigns.
* Biblical Jesus turned water into wine, Republican Jesus turned the entire dead sea into crude oil thanks to his infamous "drill, baby, drill" campaign (which he now insists was actually a damn liberal Gentile in a Jesus suit). Uniquely, Republican Jesus is Jewish.
