Not really, I'm not a progressive but support for the advocacy of social reform isn't a bad idea if those social norms have become degraded by decadence and debauchery. Jesus had many progressive ideas, far from the oral traditions of the elders.

The people you see now who call themselves progressives are not really progressives. They might follow some principles but clearly they are authoritarians.

Long-haired Jewish Jesus had 2 fathers, was unemployed, walked around in sandals mooching food and wine, associated with lepers, whores, and crooks=the perfect Progressive.

He was a man of God, he was not unemployed but worked as a carpenter at his craft for 18 years. He didn't mooch food and wine, but fasted often. He associated with the most vunerable of people, who had no hope. And he didn't out oflove and sometimes anger, in the example of him flipping over the money changers tables.

He did not care one iota of the opinions of man. His diciples were picked for a vry good reason. He picked Mathew the money changer from rome, Simeon the Zealot, Jewish Nationalist; basically he picked a group of people who were complete opposites in order to restore morality in God. He protected his brothers at all costs.

He HAD to work when he was living at home. After he left, he had no job.

Yes, and he did his craft in silence and to the best of his ability. The last two and a half years would be a mission far different than the silence of his carpenter bench. A mission that he succeeded in but unfortunately, a mission far to many people have disregarded. For if everyone acted as he, the world would be far better.
