Do you seriously think you can be a good Christian without supporting some kind of socialism?

This is a stupid thread. Socialism is a buzzword that has lost all meaning. How exactly do you define it, since that makes a huge difference?

Considering socialism in its traditional sense is a product of modern Europe and never emerged in a Christian country before it, there really isn't a question here. The issue is that westerners think that sharing resources and having basic human dignity also means the abolition of private property, materialism, and the slew of other ills that Marxist socialism implies. Of course, if you are not talking about this sort of socialism, you should imply as such.

That's why I said "some kind of socialism". Of course it can't be Marxism as it is an atheist ideology.

Yep. Socialism is Atheistic Jewish nonsense and supports theft.

It has no place in any Christian discussion. Childkillers don't get to tell Christians what to do, period.

>"A set of political and economic excuses for theft"

All Socialists belong on the end of a rope. I'm so glad that we tortured them all to death here in Spain. In particular, the practice of brutally raping left-wing women dozens of times before drowning them pleases me. They all deserved it, of course. "Means of production," and all that. Busted up teeth, nice broken ribs. Smashed up lips, and executed kids.

I'll admit it. I like any political ideology that gives me the opportunity to torture and murder my enemies.

Yes. You only need to compare capitalist countries and the rest of regimes.
