Permalink Jesus was a communist, amen.

It's been a while since I ranted about Jesus so let me have a go at it today. Jesus was a communist. He told people to give up their worldly possessions and to follow him in a vow of poverty. He communed. He wanted everyone to share what they had. And yes, he was a liberal, especially for the times in which he lived.

And let's not forget - in a fit of rage he chased out the money changers.

Now, would you wear an electric chair around your neck? What's a crucifix? Your adherence to capital punishment?

So... where did Jesus say "religion is the opiate of the peoples"?

Hmmm... three whole days and no response? No rebuttal? No retraction? Let the recordbooks show this, that VD can shoot 'em, but cannot take 'em.

One of communism's central tenets is its repudiation of religon and acceptance of Marxism. On-topic.

The topic was about Jesus and his philosophy, not anyone elses, and Communism as practiced in religion is different from Communism as practiced in politics.

Communism in politics never achieved its aim - to get rid of Government. Therefore, it was a failure on a philosophical level. Now that is all I will have to say about it.

"Now that is all I will have to say about it."

Wow. An amazing defense.

"Now that is all I will have to say about it."

I'm flabbergasted. I wonder if Michael Jackson's prosecuters had used the same approach they would have won.

"Now that is all I will have to say about it."

Just think: John Kerry would be president today if he had only said that.

"Now that is all I will have to say about it."

If Lenin himself said that, we'd all be Commies. Hoo-ray for the inherent logic of...
"Now that is all I will have to say about it."

Now that is all I will have to say about it.
