I'll guess it has something to do with leftists not liking religion. Probably because the whole idea of a supreme ruler demanding obedience and tribute in exchange for nebulous promises instead of using his power to improve our conditions in the here and now (for the almighty, fixing disease and poverty would definitionally be possible) just doesn't quite gel with the lip service to solidarity.
Jesus may have been socialist in his speeches, but Christianity as a religion sure isn't. To wrap it in a biblical metaphor, you're sowing that word where the soil is infertile and it cannot take root. If you wanna preach, turn Christians into socialists, but don't expect socialists to be fans of Christianity.
