Obama very clearly stated that his primary aim as President will be to correct poverty, racism and sexism. Obama will use redistributive tax and legal schemes (such as increasing AA’s scope) against individuals, businesses and corporations to strive for Marxist equality.

Without doubt Obama’s racial/Marxist aim parallels his racist Black Liberation Theology, and is similar to other fellow radical leftist ideologues, Mugabe, Chavez and Morales.

Read Obama’s own words borrowed from the Communist Manifesto with a Black Liberation Theology twist: “I THINK AMERICA'S GREATEST MORAL FAILURE IN MY LIFETIME HAS BEEN THAT WE STILL DON'T ABIDE BY THAT BASIC RECEIPT IN MATTHEW THAT WHATEVER YOU DO FOR THE LEAST OF MY BROTHERS, YOU DO FOR ME… AND NOTION OF -- THAT BASIC PRINCIPLE APPLIES TO POVERTY. IT APPLIES TO RACISM AND SEXISM. IT APPLIES TO YOU KNOW, NOT HAVING -- NOT THINKING ABOUT PROVIDING LADDERS OF OPPORTUNITY FOR PEOPLE TO GET INTO THE CLASS...”

I never thought about Christianity as the basis for Marxism.....I wonder what Bush was thinkin' when he fired up that faith based bull shit to send tax money to the Marxist Christians.....

Exactly!...They never even received one red cent for faith based bull crap....

....Question is:are tthey smart enough to realize that they were abused?

What get's me is that,it just seemed so obvious to me that Bush was making promises out his rear end!......Perhaps they just really wanted to believe him....

"Your points, which you repeat and repeat and repeat (often with the copy-and-paste tool)..." O&O&F, 8/13

"All my words (sic) reworded and added to, in order to make a point" -- Ralph7, 8/13

Ralph7 contends that calling his copy-and-paste jobs a nuisance is an inapproprate "personal attack." Anyone agree?

You have no conscience at all do you?

In fact, his most important lesson was that if you overthrow the moneychangers, you get all their business. Jesus was an investment banker, that is certain.

And so was Plutarch, even though Plutarch and Jesus both lived almost two millennia before that Carl Marx feller!

Plutarch: "An imbalance between rich and poor is the oldest and most fatal ailments of all republics."

And the great economic historian Lynn White Jr. had this to say:

Lynn White Jr.: "Marxism, like Islam, is a Christian heresy."

Bedwetting Commie pinkos, all of 'em! And some of these goddam radicals actually want us to teach about Commie Comrade Jesus in school!!!

Nuke 'em all and let God sort em out, is what I say!

Hey comrade, I wonder which of the re-education camps they'll send Ralph to once we take over....I think he should have to go to the one in Utah....I hear they'll be specializing in people who believe in creationism and other particularly gullible numnuts.

Yep, he revealed himself as a Christian and his critics revealed themselves as something else.

I'm not a Christian, so I don't really have a dog in this fight, but from my reading of the Bible it seems fairly obvious to me that Christianity is a communist religion. Not in the sense of Marxism, Leninism, Stalinism or Maoism, but communist nonetheless. The reconciliation of Christianity and capitalism is one of the most incredible successes of propaganda and obfuscation ever attempted in Western civilization. (Using Jesus to justify agressive wars comes in a close second.) You take a guy (mortal philosopher or God incarnate, whichever you wish to see him as) who taught that the poor and meek were blessed, to eschew property and wealth and instead give everything you own to the poor, to store up treasure on heaven and not on earth and that a camel could pass through the eye of a needle more easily than a rich man could enter the kingdom of heaven... and then you try to use him to justify an economic system based almost entirely on the acquisition of personal wealth, often at the expense of one's fellow man.

Jesus was a communist. He was all about sharing and peace and turning the other cheek. Get over it. You'd perhaps consider him a flaming liberal if you read his words rather than simply cherry picking your Scripture to conform to your own hatred and paranoia. If you can't get accept that, perhaps you might consider a religious conversion. I'm sure there are religions out there that might suit you better.

In any event, while I find the focus on religion in this race to be very distasteful, I can't blame Obama that he actually took Christ's teachings to heart.

Quillsinister: The reconciliation of Christianity and capitalism is one of the most incredible successes of propaganda and obfuscation ever attempted in Western civilization.

LeRoy: And that was a process that required many centuries. People like Ralph should take the time to read the remarkable book Economic Thought and Ideology in 17th Century England, by the award-winning historian Joyce Appleby, which eloquently describes the vigorous objections that many clergymen were making to the implications of England's growing market economy at that time, and how other clergymen defended those changes. [In other words, there was a pretty serious religious schism in 17th century England over the changes wrought by the capitalistic market economy: the Enclosure Movement, the profiteering from the grain trade, poverty laws, and on and on.]

Jesus tended towards communism. It is quite ironic that Christians are some of our world’s best proponents for economic liberty. Perhaps American Christians enjoy the freedom of determining where (and for what cause) they will spend their charity on, and are disgusted that tax payers send $300M per year to fund abortion clinics (Planned Parenthood). With that track record, any rational American Christian would prefer lower tax rates so they can direct money towards causes they support. Further, research proves conservatives are much more charitable with time and money than stingy socialists. Socialism is about deferring self-responsibility and individual morality to the State.

Mohamed was a trader; therefore, supported capitalism.

Both Confucius and Buda trended towards capitalism as well. For example, “He who does not garner his wealth in his youth will lie like a dead herring on a dry lake during his old age.” - Buda

The Old Testament is full of markets and traders, so capitalism works for the Jews.

"research proves conservatives are much more charitable with time and money than stingy socialists"

By all means, supply some-- and of course in addition to carefully defining the terms "conservatives" and "socialists" you'll want to cite your sources.

Buddha, not buda

The economic growth experienced by East Asia in the last fifty years is the most significant shift in world economic power to have taken place in the last five hundred years, i.e., since the European Age of Discovery vaulted the formerly peripheral region of Western Europe into world dominance. Most of these East Asian societies were profoundly influenced, at one time or another, by Confucianism. [Those nations that were not, such as the Philippines, seem to be economic laggards.]

My own personal belief is that Confucian capitalism will prove to be far superior to Anglo-American or Continental European style capitalism in the 21st century. Unlike most Western belief systems, Confucianism attaches a high degree of importance and respect to study, learning, and scholarship. Americans may still have their work ethic, but the Confucians combine that with a study ethic that is sadly lacking in modern America.

In America, football is more 'important' than algebra.

That is going to cost us.
