Yep, the Golden Rule. Written by Hammurabi about 2,000 years BC.
It's all we really need.

Didn't know that Christ prohibited people other than far right-wing "Christians" from talking about what's in the Bible.
Heh. I'm probably a better Christian than he is, and I'm an atheist.

Socialism will never work.. and it is anti-God as well.

Who said hate.. I said birthright.. do you feed the illegals at your table and let your family members go hungry and starve. Bring in the billions of illegals here and see if you will eat.. you better have some food in a storehouse if you wish that for this country. Those who come here for freebees on the taxpayers will reap what they sow.. many here will be in poverty because taxes will eat their paycheck up. YOu think so shallow it is typical democrati thinking.

I am thankful I have put saving away but those who don't have much will be the first to suffer.
Not arguing practicality, just providing the Word for those who believe there has never been "socialism" or even "communism" in Christianity:

Quote:
Acts 5:33
And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.
5:34
Neither was there any among them that lacked, for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,
5:35
And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.
KJV

These verses are far too difficult for we capitalist Christians to embrace, so we primarily ignore them to rationalize our condemnation of those "lazy takers who love freebies."

Here, Taratova, the first stone I put in your hand. Kill the greedy b*st*rds.

I can guarantee you are. It's that pesky social consciousness you have.

Of course , they are taught to beg like a dog.. to the so called rich Americans.The parents teach them to beg for a dollar...Did the cops stop you and ask you for some money too so you could go on your way.. typical for Mexico.

Sure,, i made a dollar an hour in a sweat shop in AMERICA!! IN THE SIXIES. WE paid our dues here!

And many did back in the sixties.. we paved the way for the good times and the freebees to flow .. we didn't ask anything from our government.. JFK said ask not what your country can do for you , ask what you can do for your country and he was a DEMOCRAT! WE HAD A WORK ETHIC. Oh but the covetous left wingers want free free free but don't want to work for it.. and they act as if they give to others. We know who the takers are.

That's incredibly arrogant; when did God put you in charge of judging others? Almost every post you make is filled with disdain for individuals and groups. Nothing could be farther from what Christ taught than assuming one is so perfect in their faith that they can pass judgement on the souls of others.
