Jesus....total socialist. Nothing about drip down in his teaching. It's help the poor and do it now.

I've always thought that Jesus was a good socialist.

Anniebach said she would start this thread if she knew how, so with her permission, I am starting it on her behalf.

Her words were
"I am a socialist because the principles of socialism follow the teachings of Christ, they cannot be separated".
She did write a few words before and after, but I think this is the part that we both wanted to discuss.

It may be a thread that turns out to only be of interest to a few, and it may possibly be a short thread!

Over to you Anniebach. Personally I dont exactly know what you mean by that, and which parts of the Bible you are refering to.

If you are not ready to post yet, there is no hurry.
