"Jesus has no truck with those whose entire agenda is to flagrantly disobey two of the Ten Commandments of God."
---Like multinationals and international banking?
"“Thou shalt not covet...any thing that is thy neighbor’s.”
---So why then is America in Iraq, and possibly planning to invade Iran at some future date?
But the final sentence of Bryan's screed is unbelievable contradiction of what he has already said.
Where are them in white coats?

"A CNN anchor asked earlier this week whether or not Jesus would occupy Wall Street.
That question can be answered with a categorical “No.”
First, Jesus has no truck with rank, blatant hypocrites."
'Categorical "No"', Bryan...? Question:
Outside St. Paul's Cathedral, London:
Answer (again, outside St Paul's Cathedral, London):
After all, if you're
so sure that's what
your Jesus 'would do', Bryan Fischite,
what's stopping him from doing similarly - and right now - here outside one of his 'Houses of God', as he did with the moneylenders from his temple before, hmmmmmmmm?!
Pop quiz, hotshot:
why have two - count 'em, two senior Church of England clergy resigned over the issue of this 'occupation' of outside one of said C-of-E's major places of worship, and the protesters - who to date haven't done anything wrong - are still there?
PROTIP: We in the UK don't have a US-style Constitution (outside of the EU Declaration of Human Rights). Civilised,
peaceful protest is a basic human
right.
As a US Constitution (especially the 'Freedom of Worship'; 2nd Amendment, and all that jazz)-loving American, I'm sure you'd agree, eh...?!
Now who's the hypocrite...? This isn't going to go away, Bryan.
And you know it.

I
am one of those 'old school arcades' people. And while I love
video games (a major MAME freak am I!), you've just reminded me of the arcades at the Butlins Filey holiday camp, which had - up to the mid-late 1970s -
electro-mechanical games:

He
turned off those moneylenders to the idea of they being
in the temple in the first place...?

Sort of like the people at old school video arcades.
Including the porno movie stalls, which btw, also took Susan B. Anthony dollars.

"In other words, he might occupy Wall Street after all."
Except for that whole being dead for 2,000 years (if he ever existed).
But do continue following your delusions. It's not like they're harmful to the majority of the Earth's population. Oh, wait ...

Bizarro land again, fuckstick?
What did Jesus tell his disciple when he complained about a thief stealing his coat?
Your attempts at revising Jesus will land your ass straight in Hell, fucker...so we'll see you there.
Now STFU you stupid little corporate whore-monger.
Take it in the ass by the corrupted capitalists. We stand for Ethical Capitalism. You stand for parroting your puppetmaster's mantra.

It's so obvious that Fischer doesn't actual read the bible. As that guy from the Austin Atheist Experience said, actually reading the bible is the best path to atheism. But even if you believe the bile is true, then Jesus was, by todays standards, a socialist. Just because you believe that America is "God's chosen country" TM, does not mean that every aspect of America is guaranteed to please god. America is not perfect. Oh, and the founding fathers were just men. I've always said that I wish heaven existed, just so that I could see the looks on these fundies' faces when St Peter shunts them off to hell. But I definitely believe that most of the founding fathers would be appalled at nutjobs like Fischer.

Quoting Jesus, "It is easier to get a camel through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to get into the Kingdom of Heaven'. Mr. Fischer, I think with that sentence alone, it's pretty obvious that Jesus would be supporting these protestors.
Also: Jesus also spent all his time with the poor, the sick, and the tax collectors, and not the super wealthy. The logic being is if you have had the time to accumulate a vast fortune, you were too occupied with material things to truly be spiritual and a good person.

"Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's" does not mean "taxes are theft", it means pay your taxes.
And it's pretty clear that when he said all that stuff about giving what you have to the poor and rich men having an easier time getting through the eye of a needle than getting into heaven, he wasn't telling the poor not to "covet" what the rich had.

I've been hearing a commercial lately for the Missouri Lottery which has various Christmas carols with every word replaced with "cash," but I have yet to hear any Christian outrage over it since this is the exact reason that Jesus overturned the money changer's tables in the temple. I'm sure if Jesus existed, he wouldn't be pleased with his birthday being turned into a money making opportunity by corporations or state lotteries.
Jesus very clearly spoke against rich people in the bible (it's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter heaven), so I'm sure he'd be right out there among the protesters.

As I recall it was money lenders Jesus laid the whip to in the temple, that would be the banks in today's language.
As for stealing, it's quite the stretch of logic to claim the government is stealing revenue (i.e. taxes) and passing them on to the poor, but I guess with your limited thinking capacity that constitutes theft.
As for the original question of whether Jesus would occupy Wall Street, I'll leave you with Matthew 19:23-24:
"Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."

1. The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose. ("The Merchant of Venice," Act I, Scene 3)
2. Bryan Fischer can cite Scripture for his purpose.
3. Therefore, Bryan Fischer is the devil.
