Michael Moore: Jesus Wouldn’t Approve of Hedge Funds

"We say we live in a Judeo-Christian nation, but I don't think, if Jesus were around today, I just don't think he'd be approving of this or participating in a hedge fund, or playing the stock market."

If Jesus were here today he wouldn't weigh 350 pounds either.

There's been no other country in history where the little guy has a better shake than in America, where every little guy has a chance and the opportunity to become a big guy.

The only time the little guy's chances are in jeopardy is when droolers like Moore and Wacky and the Clintons and Pelosi and Reid and Franks try to carve a piece of action off them.

Peace off fatso!

Connie   September 24th, 2009 - 2:40 am

Wow, what a shock! I am happy to know that Moore knows about Jesus.

Lizzy   September 24th, 2009 - 9:51 am

Now, tell me … is it this the same “Evil, Capitalistic Society” that enabled you to generate over $100M in revenues when you decided to exploit the deaths of over 2,000 American citizens and blame it on the President???

Seriously – what piece of investigative journalism has this guy ever done that has actually amounted to changing, or influencing this country in a real way?

If you ask me, this guy needs to take a lesson from the kids who exposed ACORN – those kids are the real heroes and the real Americans.

This guy is an absolute joke. He’s saying “We’re a Judeo-Christian nation” and “What Would Jesus Do?” LOL! Seriously … Michael Moore really said that? Too funny …

Barry   September 24th, 2009 - 10:01 am

Actually Jesus did say something about money in Luke 16:9
“I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings.” SO, he wasn’t against using money as long as it’s done for a noble and good purpose. Read the Bible, Michael Moore.

Jon in DC   September 24th, 2009 - 10:17 am

that fat liberal ba$tard is the last person on earth in a position to make that statement. He just needs to STFU.

Craig Allen   September 24th, 2009 - 10:17 am

Connie, knowing about Jesus does no one any good!

Satan knows about Jesus,

Matthew 8:29 Jesus, thou Son of God
Mark 1:24 I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.
Mark 3:11 Thou art the Son of God
Luke 4:41 Thou art Christ the Son of God

Demons said those words! Look them up!

Knowing those things does them no good!

The majority of people who call Jesus Christ “LORD” will end up in HELL!

Matthew 7:14 – 23

That should frighten you.

At least the Demons have sense enough to TREMBLE!

James 2:19 … the devils also believe, and tremble

Trent   September 24th, 2009 - 10:19 am

“Judeo-Christian” is an absurd amalgam. “Judeo-Muslim” makes more sense since they are more similar as far as practices go and “Islamo-Christian” makes more sense temporally since Muslims are a continuation of Christianity. But those phrases don’t serve the POLITICAL ends than those who say “Judeo-Christian” want to advance.

We have a foreclosure every 7.5 seconds because the government made institutions give ninja loans to people to buy homes they couldn’t afford or deserved. Just because you live in America doesn’t grant you a free pass. Make a real movie about people getting housing loans with no down payment and no job. lIVING WITHIN IN YOUR MEANS IS A CREDO THAT PROGRESSIVES FIND STUPID AND OUT DATED.AND THIS IS THE RESULTS.

Craig Allen   September 24th, 2009 - 10:31 am

Muslims are a continuation of Christianity < – - I've never seen such a stupid statement, have a seat on the hellbound express Trent. You'll be at your destination in just a few minutes.

Mike, you and that “golly gee, look at me, I’m just like you I wear a hat” look has to go.

MarkusUSA   September 24th, 2009 - 10:40 am

Democracy? Majority rules? That’s exactly what our Founding Fathers were trying to avoid when they created this government system. Michael Moron needs to go back to school.

racerx   September 24th, 2009 - 10:59 am

Lizzy-

“Seriously – what piece of investigative journalism has this guy ever done that has actually amounted to changing, or influencing this country in a real way?”

Well you might not think that it amounts to much, but Michael Moore saved at least one man’s life by embarrassing Humana enough to make them pay for a pancreas transplant that the company had previously refused to pay for.

Thank goodness Jesus didn’t refuse to help cure the blind and afflicted because doing so might be considered an ‘experimental treatment!’

Amen.

Take not the cinder out of your brother’s eye when you have a log in your own.

The Bible

USArtguy   September 24th, 2009 - 11:44 am

So Moore doesn’t “believe in a system where 1% of the population has more wealth than the bottom 95% combined.” That leaves 4% who are nearly that wealthy, which apparently Michael Moore is happy to be in.

He doesn’t think Jesus would approve, “if he were around today”. The bible says Jesus is king of kings, lord of lords and every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that he is. All through history, in every land, everything belonged to the king. So, as king of kings, even that what the 1% has belongs to Christ.

peter c   September 24th, 2009 - 11:56 am

This lying Atheist invokes the name of Jesus to further his lies? Not surprising…Obama has done it many times…Obama even preached that Jesus’s Sermon of the Mount showed that Jesus would support G@y Marriage and abortion!

This is tantamount of taking the Lord’s name in vain.And the fallen lying Jew King…is one of these Anti-Christ Hate mongers too.

It’s amazing how the Godless invoke the Name of Jesus to further their Anti-Jesus agendas….They will burn in Hell for this.

M. Gandhi   September 24th, 2009 - 12:28 pm

I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.

Moore Vs Jesus   September 24th, 2009 - 12:45 pm

Jesus would not approve of Moore constantly bearing false witness against others.
Jesus would not approve of Moore making money through repeated lies and deceptions.
Jesus would not approve of Moore, an anti-Christ, using his name in vain.

M. Christian   September 24th, 2009 - 12:47 pm

Imagine a world leader telling the millions of people in India and Pakistan that he liked the religious figures of that country but did not like all the inhabitants of those countries because they were generally not good people. Gandhi was an arrogant fool for saying such a thoughtless and stupid thing.

How does Moore know what a Jew would do with money ?

Hooter   September 24th, 2009 - 2:46 pm

Since Mr. Moore invokes first century Judea, there is an ancient insult spoken by the Essenes about the Pharisee which allies to you “Seeker of Smooth Things”. Further Mr. Moore we don’t live and a Democracy we live in a Republic, not by mob rule but by the rule of law….

What would Jesus say of you? Given examples from the Gospels he would call you a “viper” as this was labeled against the temple cult in Jerusalem. Further I believe Jesus would also say an individual such as you “Have already received your reward”…

Hooter   September 24th, 2009 - 2:53 pm

Mr. Moore, central and eastern European Christians defeated your Socialist and communist despotic regimes expect the same in this country…

CO2Maker   September 24th, 2009 - 2:59 pm

Jesus and the Hedge Funds … hmmm.

What about that Parable of the Talents rigmarole?

Green unchecked by regulations led to the economic collapse? Didn’t the CRA have something to do with that — aided and abetted by Barney and Maxine’s defense of Franklin Raines’s behavior at Freddie (not to mention his book-cooking scheme to generate $90 M in bonuses)? Foreclosures every 7.5 seconds. You mean, the people who initially couldn’t afford a housing load but got a no-down-payment loan when Freddie took the club to banks, and then got the banks off the hood by buying up their shaky loans–you mean, those people are defaulting? But the banks would NOT have leant to them in the first place if the CRA wasn’t there to give Freddie the club it needed and Barney was occupied deflecting the regulators.

Oh well; I guess you’re stuck with the paradigm that frames your views.

Driefromseattle   September 24th, 2009 - 3:06 pm

So Moore and Jesus are fast friends–so close Moore knows what Jesus would think about something? Hmm…”Render unto Ceasar what is Ceasar’s, render unto God what is God’s” I wonder if this “dear brother in Christ” tithes????? =) meh….don’t think so.

Jesus might not approve of hedge funds, Michael…but your buddy George Soros certainly does.

I’m not aware of that part of Mr. Moore’s background and experience which would enable him to speak so confidently of Jesus’ mindset.

Perhaps I’m the only one who is so ignorant.

Even so, I would be very grateful to Mr. Moore if he would take a few moments to enlighten us with an explanation of his relationship to Jesus and why he feels qualified to offer such insights.

Well duh, Jesus didn’t care much about investments nor for bankers, but he did advocate saving!

Moore, buy some clothes will ya? And until you give it all away and I mean ALL of it I don’t want to hear your fat gums flap about the evils of capitalism you fat hypocrite.

brian123   September 24th, 2009 - 3:29 pm

Doesn’t Moore’s good buddy, George Soros, run a multi-billion dollar hedge fund? Dude, I’m a filmmaker and it takes money, capitalistic money, to make a good film.

Laura   September 24th, 2009 - 3:30 pm

The Bible says that we are to take care of the poor, feed the hungry and do good works. But it also says that even the poor are supposed to work. Farmers were supposed to leave 10% of crops in the fields so the poor could come and pick what was left to feed themselves. Check out the old Testament when Israel said they wanted a king. They had judges, but the judges had become corrupt. The people demanded a king. God warned them that a king would take the first and best fruits (the tithe, God’s part and more = infair taxes), he would enslave them (like unions), take their property and give it to his own government officials (redistribution of wealth). God warned them they would cry out but in that day he would not hear them. Sound familiar?

Calvin&Hobbes   September 24th, 2009 - 4:07 pm

When this moron gives away 99% of his wealth to us poor people and when I see him living in squalor then I will believe that he actually believes what he promotes.

JD Nappers   September 24th, 2009 - 4:36 pm

I had to turn this off at the 1:21 mark(i’m surprised I lasted that long) every time this POS runs his yapper I want to punch a baby. His lying ignorance and complete absence of original thought makes me run to Jesus so I don’t commit violence.

JD Nappers   September 24th, 2009 - 4:38 pm

Oh, I thought this turd lost weight? Why does he still look like 10 pounds of sh*t squeezed into a 5 pound bag?

Please show us exactly how much you have given to any charity of any kind to help the poor.

Thank you.

Corky Boyd   September 24th, 2009 - 7:06 pm

Jesus wouldn’t approve of being 90 pounds overweight. But he did exercsie his leveraged wine options when they ran out of wine at the wedding at Cana. It was even better than the swill they were serving.

GarandFan   September 24th, 2009 - 7:13 pm

Poor Mikey. He get’s no respect. Even the French denied him a film award this year. Mikey was heard to respond, I coulda been a contender!, I coudla been someone!”

But don’t feel sorry for Mikey, he’ll just go home to his McMansion and console himself with some Big Macs and fries (supersized).

Rob K.   September 24th, 2009 - 7:13 pm

It’s fitting that Michael Moore says he doesn’t want to give up his freedoms when he goes to work…such as the freedom to just show up to work whenever he feels like.
Which he did.
Which is why he was fired from his job as an editor at “Mother Jones”, a liberal newspaper in San Fran.
In a Democracy – as in Capitalism – people choose what they want with the power of their dollar bill. I call that freedom. If I don’t want it, I don’t buy it, and you go out of business unless you sell me what I want. I’d call that “power to the little guy” – me with my dollar bill- which Moore says he supports.

Mr Tibbs   September 26th, 2009 - 1:52 pm

Mikey wants democracy in the workplace – that would be awesome! We all want a payraise! We all vote for a 30 hour workweek! We all vote for healthcare paid 100% by our employer! Paid leave for those requesting it! Then what happens – we become as productive as France and our GDP ranks just above that of Zimbabwe.

Wilbur J. Huffnagel   October 5th, 2009 - 12:36 am

I think I have him figured out.
Michael Moore is the new Borat.
He’s got a scam going on where he convinces everyone that he’s a documentary film maker, when in reality he’s a comedian.
And the joke is on the audience, some of whom actually take him seriously!
I wonder if I’m the only person who has realized this…..
