Can’t speak to Jesus being a Socialist, it never came up in any of our conversations.
The Catholic Church, on the other hand, has gone full on Leftist, borderline Communist. The current pope is a joke, at best.
The few practicing Catholics, esp the older ones when it was, to them, a religion of hope and salvation have my sympathy.
Jesus could never be a socialist since socialism is based on atheism, and includes abolishing family, private property, religion and national borders as its dogma.
Certainly nowhere in the Bible did Jesus say “Render all unto Caesar and naught to God who existeth not”.
Who elected him anyway?
