Modern conservative Christians would have hated Jesus. Seriously.

In the story, they are the Sadducees. Jesus scoffed at them. He went up against the Pharisees more, but that's something like a modern American leftist arguing against the Democrats. They tend to agree 95% of the time, at least on paper.
