For those of you who linked Jesus with socialism, May I bring to your attention the parable of the three servants?

Now, Obama isn't anti-war or socialist, but Jesus isn't socialist either. He has no political affiliation.

This is absolutely nonsensical.
Second, Obama isn't anti war, he's pro-"fuck up as much as we can overseas to prolong war".
Third, if Jesus was a socialist, he'd either make bloody revolution against all that disagreed with him, or he'd command his disciples to rob another, to force another to give his property for the glory of socialism.
Fourth, there's no such thing as free anything.Β Government is never charity.Β It's a piss poor replacement for willful charity.
Fifth, by their fruits, ye shall know them.Β Jesus wouldn't have been the one to author something so evil as communism.
Try again.

Uh dude; not all Socialists make bloody revolutions against all the disagreed with them. The Socialist Party of Albania is running the country after they won elections in 2013, and they didn't have to go to revolution. Not to mention, doesn't bloody revolutions go both ways? I seem to remember the Tea Party calling for revolution and demanding that the politicians in DC be kicked out.Β

Albania? The same fuckers that outlawed religion and reacted violently to it?

I only cited one example; there's also Argentina, Brazil, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Costa Rica, Slovakia, and those countries are doing economically well.Β
And as for what Albania did; Communism is not the same as Socialism. Albania isn't a communist state anymore, and religion is no longer outlawed there.Β

If social darwinism contributed to prosperity, would you condone it?

Isn't Social Darwinism advocated by far right individuals? Specifically; laissez-faire capitalists, fascists and nazis; because it stresses the need for survival of the fittest and natural selection. What the hell does it have to do with what I said in the last comment?
As for your comment; not really. If it did bring prosperity to some nation on earth, well good for them, but I don't want it in the country I live in.Β

Back in the day, social darwinism was a left wing thing.

Do you have any proof of that? Because Social Darwinism is basically the anti-thesis of left-wing, that the strong and fittest -also known as being economically rich- should survive and flourish in society, while the weak and unfit should be allowed to die.Β

It was considered left wing in the past, along with eugenics.Β Β Β The left wing has since disowned it.

I will concede that there were some left-wingers back then who supported Social Darwinism; but the fact is so did a lot of right-wingers back then, as it advocated for a laisez-faire capitalist society, and many left-wingers back then contradicted one of the key tenants of Social Darwinism and still do today by supporting a safety net for the poor.Β

Sorry for the first comment. I think I understand now.
Basically you're saying that Obama isn't pro-helping the poor and isn't pro-peace. That this is what Jesus is.
That makes sense, the way you described it just confused me a bit, implying that Jesus was a socialist.

Even if that's true, what does it have to do with anything? It's still Christians putting non-Christians to death over disparate ideologies.

All I'm saying is that followers of Jesus of Nazareth twisted his message in order to justify violence against those that disagreed with them.

When classical liberals (not modern liberals) and christians commit crimes, they betray their own ideology and philosophy.
When socialists commit crimes, it falls right into communist ideology to commit violence.

You quote evilbible?Β You quote Evilbible?Β It's a hate site according to OpenDNS.
Oh wait, you're serious?Β Let me laugh even harder. I am forever free from taking you seriously, just like you would be free from taking me seriously if I quoted Jack Chick.

The quotes on the site are taken directly from the Bible. I was not aware about the site's distinction as hateful, but that does not change the fact that there are verses in the Bible that have been used to justify genocide.
By the way, you CANNOT compare this to JackΒ Chick. May I remind you that this is the man who wrote "Lisa," "Uninvited," and "Mama's Girls."
God will not have mercy on my soul, since he does not exist.

If Bible quotes can be taken out of context and misinterpreted, couldn't that also be the case with the Communist Manifesto?
By the way, back to your OpenDNS statement, that doesn't mean much. Anyone can call any site a hate site on OpenDNS.Β

"Render unto Caeser what is Caeser, and render unto God what is God's."
Theocracy goes completely against Christian doctrine.

Well, first of all, no, I read what you typed. I couldn't audibly hear it. Second, the way you formed the question, I couldn't tell if you were asking if the majority of people believed in separation of church and state or if there were more numbnuts that supported it than those who opposed it.
