Even though this gets repeated alot, I really do feel that Christ would have politically been a Socialist and he stressed equality throughout his life. He loved the lower classes and he loved sinners, helping prostitutes and tax collectors, reserving his anger for the greedy money changers in the temple. I feel a modern Christ probably would have been a social worker in the inner city,who would reserve his anger for the wall street bankers ruining the lives of struggling american families.
Here is a good article on the issue of Jesus, Christianity, and communism http://acatheunderground.wordpress.c...-be-communist/
