Where the "left/right" political tag comes from
Did you ever wonder where the "left/right" political tag came from. Now you know!
Bible study:
In this crazy election season here's a short Bible study....
Remember what Jesus said: 'Goats on the left, sheep on the right. (Matthew 25:33).
Jesus also told Peter that if he wanted to catch fish do it from the right side of the boat. They did and filled the boat with fish.
John 21:6 (NIV) ... He said, "Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some." When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish."
Origin of Left & Right... ever wondered why it is that Conservatives are called the right" and Liberals are called the "left".
This verse in the Bible might explain it better: Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV) - "The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left."
Thus sayeth the Lord. Amen. It surely can't get any simpler than that.

And you came up with this all by yourself? :)

The ones to the right are right, the ones to the left are left behind.
Yeah, I came up with that one myself. In case someone would like to complain, I do actually belong on the right side of the political spectrum here in Norway, which is of course the right side. Just not the far right, that would be far too right.
