Jesus Was A Capitalist

[PoliticalChic]

Garnering immense wealth is a sin. Rich men may very well not enter the kingdom of heaven.

This is nothing more than another example of the OP trying to talk herself into something, no matter how blatantly absurd (she'll also vigorously claim that racism no longer exists from the Right).

Since she clearly lacks a fundamental empathy for others, she'll just convince herself that she has "proven" whatever "points" she's "making" -- regardless of whether she actually has with anyone -- and she'll derive some sense of accomplishment and comfort from that, at least temporarily.

Always interesting to watch, and always one helluva cautionary tale.

I believe you are requesting another spanking.

I pointed out the dictionary definition of 'belief'....


"a habit of mind; an opinion"

. Definition of BELIEF



You fell right into my trap: your belief that racism is a 'thought crime,' to be punished.





When you realized that I caught you, you posted many lie, claiming that you don't believe in thought crimes.....as I used the first amendment to beat you over the head.....but it was too late.



That is why you not refuse to answer this question:

Is a ‘belief’ an action, or a thought?




Don't wipe the egg off your face....it's an improvement.

No he wasn’t ,, he was godson. He only used the body as a vessel

and that vessel looked like every other Jew of the time...not blonde and not blue eyed.

According to the Bible you’re wrong the Bible said Jesus was created in the image of God which is blonde and blue eyes

God does not have blonde hair nor blue eye and Jesus was not created in the image of God, Jesus is God and was not created.

you prove yourself a moron once again.

Thanks for your opinion

It is not an opinion, the Bible tells us Jesus is God and that he always existed, Jesus was not created if you believe the bible that is.

Tell that to the hundreds of thousands of churches across America that display the image of God as a white man with blue eyes and blond hair.. go away troll.. anything else?

Jesus would not be a Capitalist or a Marxist and would be very upset that his teachings have been twisted for Political gain from any side...

Jesus was above politics and his teachings should be taken to heart but alas so many are blind why do I preach...

“For the kingdom of heaven is like a master of a house who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard. After agreeing with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. And going out about the third hour he saw others standing idle in the marketplace, and to them he said, ‘You go into the vineyard too, and whatever is right I will give you.’ So they went. Going out again about the sixth hour and the ninth hour, he did the same. And about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing. And he said to them, ‘Why do you stand here idle all day?’ They said to him, ‘Because no one has hired us.’ He said to them, ‘You go into the vineyard too.’ And when evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last, up to the first.’ And when those hired about the eleventh hour came, each of them received a denarius. Now when those hired first came, they thought they would receive more, but each of them also received a denarius. And on receiving it they grumbled at the master of the house, saying, ‘These last worked only one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.’ But he replied to one of them, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denarius? Take what belongs to you and go. I choose to give to this last worker as I give to you. Am I not allowed to do what I choose with what belongs to me? Or do you begrudge my generosity?’ So the last will be first, and the first last.”

Trick question. Jesus is the Son of God the Father. To complicate matters, there are 3 "persons" in One God, the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
We're getting in wayyyyy over our collective heads here...

I Saw God Today - George Strait - YouTube[/ame]

Opened my eyes and man I swear

Socialism is the concentration of power into the hands of government elites to achieve the following purposes: central planning of the economy and the radical redistribution of wealth.

I think that's wrong ... socialism is where government owns the means of production, transmission of that produced and retail distribution ... for example our little town's water system, wholly owned and operated by the city government ... here's where central planning is so helpful, if we know there will be a second neighborhood beyond the first, then our central planners at the water department know to install a big enough water main to serve both neighborhoods ... even though only the first one is being built today ...

I like the radical redistribution of wealth ... it's cool when everybody in my apartment complex has to come by on the first of the month to give me 1/3 their monthly income ... then pay a few bills on the 2nd ... leaves the rest of the month free and with plenty of money to enjoy myself ... the crazy part is these folks are terrified I won't let them pay, so I can evict for non-payment ... it's "yes, sir" and "no, sir" and "I'll find out sir" and "anything I can do to help you sir" ... I swear if I asked, they'd let me dork their teenage daughters ... yeah, your wealth just became my wealth ... nothing wrong with that system ...

Go ahead and raise my taxes ... I'll just raise rents ... won't cost me a penny ...

Jesus preached a monarchy ... see where the Bible calls him "the king of kings" ... our rightful overlord is Elizabeth II of England ... and she sets barons, earls and lords over us as she sees fit ... in this system, we have 5% of the people having all the wealth and all the property ... the other 95% are, in fact, themselves the property of the fiefdom they were born in ... the Middle Class is a device of Satan to confuse people into thinking they're smart enough to banter about Biblical passages, or have money ... what a crock ... if God thought the Middle Class could handle power, He won't have made them Middle Class, now would He? ...

For the record, I sold the apartments ... some stupid stupid Middle Class fella is paying 6% mortgage interest to me ... just love radical redistribution of wealth ...

Let me clear this up for you.


Fascists, Nazis, Liberals, Progressives, Socialists, Communists
...the collective, command and control regulation of private industry, and overarching government that can order every aspect of the private citizen's life....right down to control of his thoughts and speech.


None of the totalitarian forms of political plague have the slightest concern for human life: not communism (gulags), not Nazism (concentration camps), not Liberalism (abortion), not Progressivism (eugenics), not socialism (theft), not fascism (murder).

They only differ in the final outcome: slavery, serfdom, or death.

They all follow Trotsky: "We must rid ourselves once and for all of the Quaker-Papist babble about the sanctity of human life."

 

[PoliticalChic]

"Master," the man says to Jesus, "tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me." Jesus replies, "Man, who made me a judge or divider over you?" and then he rebukes the man for being envious of his sibling.” Was Jesus a Socialist?


Jesus gives evidence in Luke: 13Someone in the crowd said to Him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.” 14But Jesus replied, “Man, who appointed Me judge or executor between you?”

15And He said to them, “Watch out! Guard yourselves against every form of greed, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”…


But Jesus replied, “Man, who appointed Me judge or executor between you?”

If Jesus says He shouldn't appropriate the power to make such decisions for the individual.….how can government?




6. Who, or what, then, should be responsible for exactly how and when one’s earnings should be dispensed….or, if you’d rather use the term, ‘re-distributed’?

The answer redounds to the ideas of our Founders, and of conservatives today: the individual makes that decision, not the government, i.e., the ‘collective’ which has no such rights….at least not according to Jesus.



Conservativism: individualism, free markets, and limited constitutional government.


7. To be more specific to the American situation, our Constitution is the law of the land, the only document Americans have agreed to be governed by. In Article 1, section 8, the founders list exactly what the federal government is authorized to do….and charity, and insurance, and responsibility for being generous with other people’s earnings is not found in the list.

Everyone is free to give any part of their earning to whomsoever they choose....not to reach into their neighbor's pocket.


So saith Jesus.....the capitalist.

you are falling trap of the false dichotomy fallacy, since Jesus was not a socialist he must have been a capitalist.

This is false, but you lack the basic intelligence to understand that.

It is not your fault though, God made you the way that you are.

Fear not.....I'm here to help....

The wages are not actual daily wages, but forgiveness and salvation for believers. Jesus is showing that it matters not if you were a follower all your life or if you choose Jesus on your deathbed, your salvation was the same for both.

It is not a difficult passage to understand at all.
