Jesus Is Not Republican: A Secular Liberal's Adventures with Religion, Politics and Sex

Written by Kate Rice

Narrated by Lucy Zukaitis

This sassy memoir by a party girl with a broken heart takes an irreverent look at religious teachings that made her an easy victim of a love gone wrong. And in telling her story, she shows how the right hijacked Jesus—and gives moderates and progressives of all faiths and of no faith a recipe for taking back God, flag and country.

Here are revelations, Kate Rice style. For example, the Apostle Paul says (in ancient Greek), shit happens. (Corinthians 6; 1-13). Also, Bible wasn’t written in English. It was written Aramaic, Hebrew and ancient Greek. A literal interpretation of the Bible is impossible.

She introduces the tatted up minister who preaches the joy of sex, church-going progressives standing strong in a rural America that is not as red as you think, and believers and non-believers who work together!

This battle-scarred veteran of three different religions explains our nation’s wrestling match with religion, politics, and sex by viewing it through the prism of her own struggles. She pokes fun at hypocrites but shows love and respect for true people of faith. And then she gives us all a pep talk about what we can do to keep our nation one that guarantees freedom for all.

Reviews for Jesus Is Not Republican

[RogerMoen · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

I liked some portions of the book, but it was a bit unfocused and meandering. Many portions about the author’s travels and friends, a lot of discussion of Trump and the Republican party, and less than half was on the topic I expected, Jesus and Republicans and the similarities and the differences etc. It was OK, but I can’t wholeheartedly recommend it.
