I was just thinking the same thing. I doubt Marxy even goes to church as this is one of the main teachings regarding Jesus and government. he wasn't interested in an earthly kingdom, he wanted individuals hearts which would then be reflected in their actions. NOT a collective socialist plan forcing people to comply.
No matter how many times this is discussed Marxy still can't grok it....

ReplyDelete“Leftists favor coercion over cooperation.”
That pretty well boils it down to its simplest form. One could expound on that at great length, but it all comes down to those few words in the end.
So, for example, when socialists tell us the Jesus was a socialist because he advocated service to others, they corrupt his message of cooperation into one of coercion. Jesus never lobbied the Roman government to institute confiscation and redictribution programs, for that would have missed his point entirely. Rather he sought simply to open people’s eyes, such that they would serve others willingly out of love and respect.
