WWJD

Among my many friends are some good folks whom writer Gore Vidal would call "The Jesus, Guns, and Money crowd". Tea party types, perhaps. They are devout Christians, devout capitalists, and not only do they think guns should be legal, they think that people in general should own guns, to protect themselves. And they don't simply believe in free enterprise, they believe in profiting extensively with it.

One of my goals is to become open minded enough to understand how they reconcile all this.

WWJD? What would Jesus do? Wouldn't he recommend non ownership of guns, and non pursuit of wealth?

Perhaps not. Perhaps Jesus would advocate gun ownership, and encourage people to work hard in order to become as wealthy as possible.

But still....
