1. I think he was saying "My Father Loves you and is waiting for you"
I don't think Jesus was into worrying about life here on earth as much as making sure kids understood His Father was waiting for them with open arms.

3. He healed when asked to heal.
Jesus could have asked his Father to forgive His creation and grant them eternal life again here on earth also, couldn't he? But he didn't did he..

5. I guess you've never read the Parable of the Good Samaritan..
The injured man didn't ask for help but the Samaritan helped him anyway.

After two devout men passed him by like a pile of rotting meat.

And Jesus said that the first law was that we should love our neighbor as ourselves and that the Samaritan was the neighbor, not the two devout men who passed the injured man by.

19. The blonde blue-eyed Jesus myth was a big reason for my rejection of my Mother's religion.
Well and the whole 6000 year old earth thing.

6. he said
"you are able to work long hard hours without breaks or lunch, go now to the sweatshop of your choice"

No. He didn't.

I just guess some folks missed that part of Jesus.

8. When His holy "handlers" told the kids Jesus was too tired to hang with them,
He said "let the little children come to me."

That story got me through Catholic school. All the rude Priests and Nuns were like the interfering Apostles. Jesus knew that kids are cool.

And the GOP wept.

22. White Jesus and White Kids?
I bet Jesus also lived in a gated community and attended the local mega church.
