Since the question is being asked, I'd suggest replacing "politically incorrect" with "controversial", or even better, "heretical". Since it was a group of Pharisees looking to trap and accuse Jesus, the original meaning is most likely that they were tying to catch him in heresy, which was their domain. Quoting Jesus as saying something politically incorrect for that period would only allow Him to be embarrassed at most - these men want to have Jesus eliminated since they saw him as a threat to their authority. --[[User:ChrisY|ChrisY]] 09:11, 27 January 2010 (EST)

:I don't think the Pharisees had an atheistic separation between church and state. Heresey would have been considered politically incorrect. [[User:JeffT|JeffT]] 09:23, 27 January 2010 (EST)
