To the pastors complaining about the federal government's changes to the funding of summer job programs: nowhere in my Bible, King James and New International versions, does it say that Jesus rejected or alienated anyone.
If my memory serves me correct, did he not forgive Mary Magdalene, meet the needs of the poor, heal the lame? Your bellyaching reminds me of how the religious leaders of that day complained about anything and everything.
What did Jesus do? You may want to dust off your Bibles, read carefully what He did and then stand in front of the mirror and ask Jesus: "Are you talking about/to me?" Get off your man-made high horses and practise what Jesus preached!
