Well then I would challenge you to understand the word of Christ.

It should be obviously to anyone who follows Christ that if we lived in a perfect world socialism would fit perfectly. Everyone works for a purpose of their best talent regardless of pay.

Of course because you don’t understand Christ then that’s not coherent enough for you.

And if my mother had married Sam Snead I would be someone else.

Christ, the Second Person of the Holy Trinity is indeed beyond my comprehension, but He is not absurd. As for you, do you understand what socialism is? Socialism is not charity. Socialism is planned poverty. My Catholic wife who fled here from the communists in the socialist paradise of Poland said she used to hear people say, "socialism is where we pretend to work and they pretend to pay us."

And if you think charity is something obtained by coercion at the barrel of a gun then you don't know what charity is either.

Cordially,
