I know what Jesus wants!
I have the power to repair ailing printers with a touch of the hand. I can see the trouble that exists in the world and repair it (one by one).

Jesus wants people to care enough not to hurt others. For any reason they can think up.

Jesus wants people to share the gifts they have gotten from life.

Jesus wants people to be tolerant of others thoughts and actions - so long as they don't hurt others.

Jesus wants people to not trust the "money changers." Those who manipulate the imaginary wealth system.

Jesus wants us to care about one another as we would have others care about us.

I am not religious (actually atheist), but Jesus had some great ideas.

What else does Jesus want?

2. for us to live in peace and harmony with each other,
building each other up and helping to usher in the kingdom of God.

Or at least to stop spreading hatred and committing murder in his name. At this point, I think he'd be pretty happy if we could just get over that part of it.

3. He wants people to realize that no one has a monopoly on him and
that he is sad when someone says that Jesus told him to do it.

4. For people to stop on the side of the road, and perhaps help out that
person in need...even if we don't particularly care for them. I wish I could say I was like that.

5. As a non-Christian Jesus fan
I have to ask, who else comes close to his wisdom and strenght in the Bible?

6. Jesus was only following Buddha's lead.
Don't tell my priest I said so, though, o.k?
