Political Memes

Meh, all I remember of what the Bible says of heaven is it will be none stop worshipping of god. Like hillsong forever or something.

In the eternal words of Bob Marley:

Some people think

Great God will come from the sky

Take away everything

And make everybody feel high

But if you know what life is worth

You will look for yours on earth

And now we see the light

We're going to stand up for our right

Heaven is a post-capitalism utopia

Socialism/Communism are ideologically still revolving around materialism and defining the success of the society through production and consumption.

They follow the same core pitfall as Capitalism, by seeing humans through the lens of producer and consumer.

The pope literally wrote a fucking document called "Rerum Novarum". What the hell are these people even discussing? Christians are a joke politically because they can't have their own political stance and keep inheriting liberal beliefs.

If only they could listen to Jesus first

You can read you through it all, no magic involved. Jesus is the only hero I've ever looked up to

Fundies have a more two-class system in mind for Heaven: God-King and unquestionably loyal fans.

There's a very easy answer that most Christian conservatives will quickly provide - God makes all things possible. Whether in its most primitive, logic-defying form, or in the more thought-out "Humans are imperfect and thus cannot run a perfect system, unlike God", few Christians will actually be caught on the surface-level contradiction.

I don't have an issue with communism, but with communists.

Why are we censoring "communism"?

Oooh baby, do you know what that's worth? Ooh, Heaven is a place on Earth

There are plenty of Christians who specifically and deliberately oppose attempting to make life on earth more like heaven. They’re not being hypocrites for this, this is their belief system. To disagree with them is to wade into a theological debate, not just a political one.

Well if we turned earth into heaven, then there would be no reason for anyone to convert, duh

I think it might have something to do with those "Christians" envisioning heaven as an implicit ethnostate.

Socialism seems ugly to them because it involves the people who seem ugly to them being cared for.

But they'd never say it out-loud; most can't even see that's what their twisted little hearts desire.

The most successful nations in terms of citizen happiness use mixed-economics. Nordic nations have the blueprint. We just need to use it.

The absolute worst is them saying socialism is pessimistic because it thinks people can't do anything for themself and coddles them with a nanny state. Then turns around and says "you have to structure capitalism assuming every single person is a greedy sociopath hellbent on fucking over everyone else to make money."
