“I am fond of Christians
Christians are fond of property
Never mind of whose
I am fond of Christians
Oh, but when they lose
Damn it all, it’s fuuny.”
Something between apathy and introspection.
Christians are not supposed to overly concern themselves with things of this world. Those who love Christ well are unconcerned with property, those who love property too well maybe unconcerned with Christianity, either way is apathetic towards the statement “Christians are fond of property”. Someone who wants to be Christian but is fond of property may find this a point for introspection. The individual must make a choice between Christian identity and fondness for property.
So far as I know, there is no dichotomy between Jewishness and fondness of property. Because both Jewishness and love of property can be unified aspects the same individual, the poem stings with insult.
