More talk about gays and sex from the religious conservatives.

Technically, Jesus was a community organizer. And the Bible was compiled centuries later. But, to address the point you responded to, the terms "left wing" versus "right wing" came about in the 18th century: The "people" wing on the left, and the aristocratic wing on the right, of the French crown.

Where in the Bible does it say "give the government complete control over who gets what"?
This comes close:

Enough said.
Shakespeare, "Macbeth", Act 5, Scene 5: It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing".

Oh you. With "facts" and "logic", you can make a case for anything that's even remotely true.
