Christianity believes in a hierarchy subordinate to God. How can a Christian be a socialist? Or were you just meme'ing?

Socialism by the barrel of a gun is immoral.

Voluntary socialism will never be able to get everyone on board.

Throwing away your money and giving it to the poor doesn't mean you're a socialist. It just means acknowledging that there is more to life than money.

forcing somone to act ethically or live within ethically (within the realm or christian virtue ethics) is not immoral. in fact it would be immoral to not stop a force or system that is immoral


an obvious example would be if there was a lot of child abuse within a hierarchical structure you ought to, according to christian theology, work to stop that system

The redistribution of wealth is theft, if it is not done voluntarily.
