Who can forget the dramatic passage in the gospel in which Jesus marches on Rome with his supporters to demand an end to Roman privilege!

A close read of Zealot, The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth

What religion uses this book as a basis for anything?

He also wants people to work hard, take responsibility for their actions, respect the rights of others and not steal or burn buildings.

What do these communists care about what Jesus didn’t say, He did say if you don’t work you don’t eat (paraphrase).

Here's the heretical money quote from the article:

Were he alive today, this Jesus would be advocating an ethical minimum wage, a new consciousness about America's underclass and a serious campaign against global poverty.

... advocating an ethical minimum wage, a new consciousness about America's underclass and a serious campaign against global poverty.

The serious campaign against global poverty is called "Free Market Capitalism."

Nothing has lifted more people out of poverty since the industrial revolution. And before that, the dawn of agriculture.

Jesus was also killed by Big Roman government who let him die at the hands of a mob in order to appease the mob....

Sound Familiar?

Isn't it interesting how the leftists pick and choose the parts of the Bible that suit their ideology and that they want us to live by, but ignore the rest??? And they themselves certainly have no intention of living by any of it???

Jesus is relying on us, he won’t have much to say when he returns because he has already said it.

Noting that the states have never delegated to the corrupt feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specifc power to regulate vote-winning intrastate minimum wage, Matthew 20:2 not only shows that Jesus taught that an employer and workers are free to negotiate a price before doing a job, but Matthew 26:11 also shows that there will always be poor people; no human remedy for poverty.

What nonsense! Jesus told the parable of the man who went to the marketplace to find workers in the morning. He hired them for a certain sum.
Later in the day he hired others for the same wage.
Near the evening he hired others for the same wage.
when pay time came, all received the same wage making those hired earlier in the day very upset as they had borne the heat of the day and expected more.

Then there is the story of the master going away and gives three servants a certain amount and tells them to keep the business going till he gets back.
Upon his return, the first had doubled his amount by buying and selling in the marketplace, same for the second.

The third his his in the ground and the master got no gain from the unprofitable servant, and the master chews him out for not at least taking the money to the moneychangers and get gain by usery.
