/r/ChristianSocialism
A place to encourage healthy discourse and discussion about anything and everything regarding Christian Socialism.
Welcome to /r/ChristianSocialism, a subreddit for those who consider themselves Christian Socialists and/or wish to engage in constructive, civil discussion about world events and Christian socialist ideals.
TANKIES GET OUT
Christian Socialism broadly differs from 'generic' socialism in that it's rooted in the belief that Jesus - when he came down to earth - commanded us to help the poor, downtrodden, and needy, and at this point of history, socialism is the best path to this.
Everyone is welcome and encouraged to participate regardless of religion or political stance as long as you keep it civil and polite.

Hear me out, im gonna sound like a kook here: It isnt because I'm a sick bastard (that is a perk) it's because the Mammonites have really outed themselves as the false Christians infecting religions with greed and materialism. I left the churches because they felt wrong. The biblical teachings of Christ are VERY different than the materialism and hatred I grew up in. The pursuit of more materialism won't fix the problems caused by the materialism of the wealthy. We are the flock. We are all we have, and being willing to sacrifice other members of the flock to wolves for the perception of safety is what we've been doing for too long. Christ didn't die to forgive our debts just so we could be reinstated under debt of man. All this evil is about the greed of a few. We received the lessons, but the landlords have invaded. Christ was evicted, the demons of greed now claim that "material wealth is God looking upon you", "They didn't earn it", "Illegals are taking our stuff", and "Greed is good". This is the world the money changers have made. Corrupting the church to enslave the flock. Those are the houses of gold you'll never find Christ in. You'll find Christ under a tree, on a rock. Never praying in public as it is a signal of vanity and praying for attention.
I’m an atheist, but I got here because since I was ten I’ve been the scourge of the earth and I’ve had nightmares about having to choose between my wife and unborn child. Now that’s a reality. The Christian left has abandoned America. It doesn’t exist.
I'm looking for more Catholic engagement with the pro choice movement. I'm Orthodox but our arguments against abortion are similar and I'd like to dive more into a Catholic pro choice stance that confronts the pro birth movement. I'm aware of Catholics for Conscience but find myself kinda frustrated at their lack of resources and systematic arguments for their position. Are there any Catholic books articles or websites from a pro choice perspective?
