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. With every good wish, Kevin, WB4AIO. -- http://kevinalfredstrom.com/ |
