    If Jesus - a poor, brown-skinned, Middle-Eastern, Jewish, socialist, refugee hippie who spent his time hanging out with prostitutes, kissing men on the lips, and telling people to pay their taxes and take care of the poor and sick - were here today, conservatives would have him back up on the cross before the end of the week.
