Hitler, Mussolini, and Stalin were all totalitarians.


Jesus was a socialist, Hitler was not.


Actually, the "Jesus" in the Bible tales is highly unlikely ever to have
existed, but taking the stories at face value I find no statement from him
demanding that property or wealth be taken from one group of people and
forcibly given to another -- which is the practical essence of state
socialism.


He did say, "Slaves, obey your masters," though -- so perhaps I am wrong
and he was a socialist after all.


He did command His followers to "give up their worldly goods and follow him"

My guess is that Jesus, whatever He was according to history, was
apolitical. Render unto Caesar, and all that...God's kingdom doth not
discriminate on the basis of political affiliation, right?




And on this we can agree.
