Conservative MP compares Stephen Harper government to Jesus, inspiring hilarious #CPCJesus tweets

Is it time we started referring to Prime Minister Stephen Harper as "Our Lord and Saviour"?
Wai Young, the Conservative MP for Vancouver South, apparently told the congregation at Harvest City Church that the Harper government's pushing through of controversial antiterrorism bill C-51 resembles the work of Jesus Christ, who Christians believe was the son of God.

I'm an atheist and secularist. I find this sad that a government official talks like this.

I'm a racist but I'd still play couch rugby with her.

MP not government official. There are probably 10-12 crackpots sitting as MPs for each party (well less for the Lieberals since so few actually got elected).

True,

MP is still a representative of the people and she should know not all people are Christians and not all people are even religious nor theistic.

Well, to be fair, she is representing people from Vancouver so her voting base is largely crackpots too.

I would think that those who are not Christian would be less offended.

I am currently living in Toronto. But I am not a Toronto-dude.

That being said, a lot of the people who live in Toronto need some good bashing.

Mission/Abbotsford is crazy Christian like in Colorado.

If he is Jesus we have a chance to crucify him at the polls.
How stupid can a member become wait I should not ask.
Remember the burning crosses on lawns in Prince George?
That was said by a Liberal MP

No, he actually walks on oil spills and turns water into tar sands tailing ponds.
