When I said Jesus used pacifist reason, I was referring to the work of his entire life.

You used "pacivistic reason". 

It seemed out of place in the middle of a comment on the money changers.   If you intended it to refer to His entire life put it at the beginning or end or say so.

Of course he was angered by the invasion of "his father's house", and threw out the interlopers.  But this did not negate his entire pacifistic life. 

True, and I never said it did.   But since this is the only place in the Bible where He is reported to have used violence, even though it may have been fairly mild, it's significant that it was when He went after the money changers, those in power.   So I think it would not be unreasonable to conclude He would be sympathetic to the occupy goals.

 

Malodery and TP, you guys are still spouting bullshit.

Shameless!   That doesn't belong in a discussion of religion.

Is this your justification?

He didn't go after the money changers because they were money changers.  He went after them because they were changing money in the temple, his father's house.  You are still full of bullshit.

You have no interest in this, except it's use to further your agenda.

Given Mals long history of horrid logic, I don't think it would be unreasonable to conclude that she's a tool.
