There is a
VAST difference between individual socialism, and the worldly institution of organized socialism.
Jesus was the world’s first, best and most famous socialist. However, socialism has to be on an
individual-choice basis (free-will), just like talking to God, because, once it becomes an organization, it goes all wrong, just like religion. Everyone
should individually help his neighbours, from personal choice.
Once socialism becomes organized into a political party, or a government, it becomes a dictatorship and evil. All human dictators are evil, but the most evil is state dictatorship, with walls to keep people in, forcibly. If they don’t build walls, the place becomes deserted.
Capitalism is also wrong, but it is not as evil as communism, because at least it allows freedom of choice, to be or not to be a capitalist. It teaches the wrong values, because it teaches the values of the world (materialism), instead of the values of heaven (brotherly love and sharing). However, at least it does not force itself upon people, and you are free to opt-out, and/or leave. It is probably the lesser of the evils.
Jesus taught The Way, i.e. “
individual socialism”.
IF everyone was like Jesus, there would be
no need for governments, because everyone would help his neighbours, and soon this planet would be deserted, because everyone would have gone home: “I am
The Way - home” (I am how
YOU have to be, to go home -- Christ).
