You really don't have to make anything up to embarrass the writers of the conservative bible or conservapedia for that matter. (Salon linked me to the conservapedia article on Obama, I thought it was parody similar to dikipedia.)

The well-known parable Jesus told about the householder going to the market to hire laborers in Matthew 20 is simple to understand. The man hires laborers early in the morning. Then he goes back three more times to hire men at 9:00 a.m., 12:00 noon and 3:00 p.m. Each man has been told he will receive one denarius for his labor. Finally the man returns to the market to hire more men at 5:00 p.m. (the eleventh hour.) Every man is paid the same. The ones who worked all day understandably grumble that the last men received the same wage. The householder tells them he has honored his agreement and he is free to do with his money what he will.

The parable teaches the Jews that Gentiles too will receive a full inheritance of the kingdom of God even as the Jewish people who have been with God since the very beginning. A similar message to that of the parable of the prodigal son. Here is the conservative bible take on things:

At issue is not the principle of "equal pay for comparable worth," but that an employer has the absolute right to pay whatever wage he wishes to pay, so long as he honors his agreements without discrimination. In the same way, God has the absolute right to reward those of us who serve Him exactly as He wishes, and He will always reliably honor the agreements He makes.

Sorry boys. That's blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. Better get down on your knees and pray for forgiveness.

I'm guessing Jesus didn't have blue eyes.

It's also a fact that he did not hang out with the rich. He believed in helping the poor, healing the sick, and feeding the hungry. And he wasn't keen on people throwing stones at fallen women, and in a parable, warned against flaunting devotion to God in public.

IOW, Jesus wouldn't be a conservative evangelical.

He'd be a liberal.

Sue: They are trying to get Americans to believe they are compassionate...

They proclaim they want to "save" our social safety net programs... which always involves destroying or just massively cutting them. I thought GWb was the guy we should credit for the oxymoronic-sounding term "compassionate conservativism", but Wikipedia says "the term... is often credited to U.S. historian and politician Doug Wead who used it as the title of a speech in 1979.

Dikipedia? I've never heard of it. Are you talking about this site? Looks like a blog to me, and nothing like Wikipedia. If you're referring to this site, there doesn't really appear to be much there.

Hey Whirling Dervish,

I looked up the entry on honorary dickette, Sarah Palin and got scared that HuffPo took the whole thing down. I think somebody must have asked them to go easy on Sarah.

I spelled it wrong. It's put out by Huffington Post Comedy. It's called "Dickipedia." Here is the main news page. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/news/dickipedia/ Here is the post on Michael Steele, who really wasn't such a dick for being a republican. At least he was honest in declaring the only heroic republicans to be abolitionists from the nineteenth century! http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/03/31/dickipedia-michael-steele_n_181375.html

I guess it's defunct now. The last entry was May of 2011. But they didn't quite get why Matt Lauer was a dick.

A better explanation is found in my finest blog post of 2007.

""an employer has the absolute right to pay whatever wage he wishes to pay, so long as he honors his agreements without discrimination.""

You will find no arguments from conservatives with this idea...where conservatives disagree with President Obama and liberalism is the Federal Government dictating how much they MUST pay, and that Mr. Obama gets to decide who gets a share of the taxes as an entitlement for not being WILLING to work. No one argues with TRUE NEED to sustain life and health, but to reward laziness and disinclination to work with tax dollars which have been redistributed from those who work hard is wrong. Rewarding laziness and lawlessness breeds more laziness and lawlessness. Look how many "needy" people stay on welfare rolls for generations. Simple facts, Sue...simple facts.

In your little "biblical" example, President Obama would take away from the employer that "absolute right" to pay whatever salary he wishes to pay, as he would be REQUIRED by the statist government to pay wages he is dictated to pay. Your illustration fall flat.

I miss you, Sue. You're the only person that really loves the president more than anybody else.

What did you think about his speech on the war and Gitmo today?

Drop by the Zone for my thoughts. Easily as good as NPR. Apparently FOX has to go to Rand Paul for information.

That's Republican Supply-side Jesus, not the real one! :-)
