There is a passage in Acts where it says that the early Christians shared their wealth according to their need.

I don't know if you're being sarcastic here...but, in case you weren't...voluntary acts of charity, goodwill and love towards other people is alot different than communism, which is, what I like to call: acts of charity, goodwill and love towards other people obtained by force, intimidation, whose dissenters are punished with death.

BIG difference.
