You want more socialism......?
07/10/19 at 07:32:26

Maybe you should look more at promoting Jesus.....not removing HIS influences of the life he led while walking in the flesh upon this planet.....

NOT upon the men and women who have used its message to their own benefit.....

We saw how Jesus confronted such with upturning their tables of commerce for profits for folks desiring to find a higher spiritual awareness, a healthier way to mind and body....as does medicine, hopefully.

We saw how he dealt with the Sadducee's and Pharisees, religious leaders and politicians of their day.

Ya might wanna think about it.....???? Undecided

Is this, what people should believe in/do ?
Just a tiny handful of the beliefs,
the Socialists have on ‘religion’.
Quote’s taken from many source’s.

“…quote from Karl Marx translates as: "Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people”….”

“… or no religion whatever, i.e., to be an atheist, which every socialist is…”

“…we now know what religion is, in what kind of mental environment it originally arose and to what kind of intellectual attitudes its alleged ‘truths’ appealed…”

“…(can finally destroy religion). Only the coming of a classless society can do that…”

“…Religion is at all times and places the product of fear and ignorance…”

“…the idea of ‘god’, though due essentially to social and not to intellectual causes, is also a logical absurdity from the purely intellectual standpoint…”

“…Religion is one of the forms of spiritual oppression which everywhere weighs down heavily upon the masses of the people…”

“…Religion is opium for the people. Religion is a sort of spiritual booze…”

And several HUNDRED MORE !!!!!

Besides your total destruction of grammar, I pretty much agree with most of those posts.

While I respect religion and most of those who are religious, there's truth in many of those quotes.

I've gone through the Catholic adult education, becoming a member of the Church - I've gone through the Presbyterian adult education and become a member of that Church - and I was raised Lutheran.

The only commonality I see is hypocrisy from most of its members. The clergy I interacted with were great people. I learned a lot from them and they were what drew me to their churches in the first place.

But the followers were, for the most part, hypocrites. It's funny how my spiritual journey led me to become agnostic.

So... yeah - good quotes mn.

So the people that believe in a Deity/Religion, are hypocrites.
According to you, because you, believe, in not believing.

Gee, someone is a hypocrite, because they do not, believe,
the SAME THING AS YOU !

And you believe in Socialism.
Got it.

The point is, most of Jesus teachings are socialist,.. so to believe in him and be against his teachings is hypocritical.

Would Jesus be putting children in cages?...
... or grabbing women by the "pu**y"?...

My beliefs don't enter into it - that in and of itself would hypocritical. What I'm saying is that the majority of the church members I interacted with were hypocritical in their actions. One perfect example is where after church, Boy Scouts would sell Sunday Papers at the bottom of the church steps. On more than one occasion, I saw a guy come out of church, pick up a paper from the stack and then toss a bunch of loose change near the Scouts. They had to scramble to pick it up. He never said so much as a "hello" to anyone. Further, far too often, when I'd interact with the people from my church, I found many of them to be liars, adulterers, heavy drinkers and very racist.

Gee, someone is a hypocrite, because they do not, believe,
the SAME THING AS YOU !

Got it.

I believe in a mixed socialist form of government. Sad news for you, it's pretty much what we have today.

Wow do you really believe that? Really? Jesus does not teach socialism. He said to give to the poor, not have a government take it from you and disseminate it as they see fit.

Socialism is like that old movie Logan's Run. People walk towards what they think is paradise but instead, it's death. We have a slew of people thinking they are walking towards something golden, but its not.

Invoke Jesus all you want. Reformed humanity probably has socialistic tendencies. However, Jesus was very clear there are levels in heaven. Everyone is not equal. However, because of the reformed nature of humanity, there is no jealousy like is displayed by leftist today.

"Jealousy"? How's that? Jealous of what?

Heavenly levels? How do you get to the top, 15% of your earnings? LOL

You get out what you put into this life. If you only work for the afterlife, then this life means nothing. Change the here and now for the better. Not because you "have to" to get to heaven, but because you want to for the good of your fellow man.

So, you take in poor people? You give your time to the poor?
(Before you ask, I recently started to donate every month to St. Judes, I give some to the Salvation Army and help out with Toys for Tots and The Greater Chicago Food Dep.)

But as things progress, the way I see it, I'll give to the government (taxes) to have them help the poor. I "hire" my reps to do that for me.

Where's the harm in that? You don't think Jesus would approve?

I think you're thinking of Dante's levels in hell.
I know of no levels in heaven.
