20.11.12.0151Th ANTITHETICAL, REALLY? I have received the following comment which is clearly a socialist that wants to think of themselves as a Christian. I’m sorry my friend; but you can’t be both a socialist and a christian – it’s impossible. I hear a lot about cultural appropriation, well this comment is spiritual appropriation by a socialist.

XXXXXXXXXXXXX Nov 11, 2020: Capitalism is antithetical to the teachings of Jesus Christ.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

To reduce humanity to nothing more than beasts to be exploited for the socialist (supposed) good is contrary to everything Jesus taught. It’s socialism that’s contrary to nature not capitalism!

I’ll try to help a bit, have you seen any grazing animals sweating & making bread for themselves lately? All capitalism is is private ownership of a means of production & if they don’t get a profitable return on their effort they must be getting a loss return in which case they’ll stop their effort. What was Abraham if not a capitalist – a wealthy one at that? What was Peter if not a capitalist fisherman or how do you think he caught fish & why if not to sell? And was Joseph a carpenter without tools? The list is endless in addition to the argument against capitalism being really stupid – socialist stupid. Even the grazing beasts of the field is in constant search for greener pastures. Now socialism does consider humanity nothing more than a herd of animals to be controlled and/or managed exploited for the greater good which invariably is their personal good of course - it being the greater to them.

Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. (kjv)

Genesis 3:17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; 18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; 19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. (kjv)

@1914wizard I will say it again. Capitalism is antithetical to the teachings of Jesus Christ. That is pure fact, no amount of word salad can refute that.
