"When I feed the poor, I am called a saint. When I ask why they are poor, I am called a communist."
So many stories of Christians raising communists and then having an absolute shit fit that their children actually took to heart things like "feed the poor" and "love thy neighbour" and "it is more difficult for a rich man to enter heaven, than for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle".
"When asked "what would Jesus do", remember that whipping capitalists is a valid possibility."
Honestly, in context of things like Liberation Theology or just any reasonable interpretation of the literal words of Jesus in the Bible, it is so weird to me that the Religious Right exists and that Cold War Christianity happened.
Yeah, that's really the crux of my family relationship now. They all think I'm insane, i've been poisoned by liberal college professors or something. But really I just read the fuckin book they claim to live by.
Yeah, definitely this. "No, I don't get these opinions from Liberal Society, I got them from the freakin' Bible. You people need to actually read your holy book." I like those kinds of Christians a lot more than the religious-right idiots.
