Just want to see how this looks in print.............what if there had been a quote from Jesus - who called us to become a flock of sheep.
That Jesus Christ, what a guy, what a legacy! Millions dead, oppressed, tortured, etc. It is interesting that the Christian model is the one that is eventually over-thrown and that self-determination is of more interest to the masses than is shared poverty. . .
Yep, just as I thought, it looks pretty silly. Afterall, millions dead - oh wait throwning Christians to the lions, and the Turks murdering 1.8 million Christaian Armenians.............or would it of referenced Hitler's bonding of state and church killing millions of Jews - could go either way.
Self-determination...................? Jesus said trust the lord, follow, be part of the flock, not much for self-determination was he?
Shared poverty? Yea Jesus was big on giving to the poor, right?
Jesus or Marx.............any large movement has it's failings even our beloved capitolism.
