Christian Marxism By Observer    

Author: Trance Gemini

 

Christian communism is a form of religious communism centered around Christianity. It is a theological and political theory based upon the view that the teachings of Jesus Christ compel Christians to support communism as the ideal social system. Although there is no universal agreement on the exact date when Christian communism was founded, many Christian communists assert that evidence from the Bible suggests that the first Christians, including the Apostles, created their own small communist society in the years following Jesus' death and resurrection. As such, many advocates of Christian communism argue that it was taught by Jesus and practiced by the Apostles themselves; a point highly debated among other Christians.

Christian communism can be seen as a radical form of Christian socialism. Also, due to the fact that many Christian communists have formed independent stateless communes in the past, there is also a link between Christian communism and Christian anarchism. Christian communists may or may not agree with various parts of Marxism. They certainly do not agree with the atheist views of most Marxists, but they do agree with some of the economic aspects of Marxist theory, such as the idea that capitalism exploits the working class by extracting surplus value from the workers in the form of profits. Christian communists also share some of the political goals of
Marxists, for example replacing capitalism with socialism, which should in turn be followed by communism at a later point in the future. However, Christian communists sometimes disagree with Marxists (and particularly with Leninists) on the way a socialist or communist society should be organized. In general, Christian communism evolved independently of Marxism, and most Christian communists share the conclusions but not the underlying premises of Marxist communists

If you google "christian communists " You will ind a wealth of information about the subject.

Also google "Christian Marxists"

Why don't you read history rather than trying to re write it? You are simply a dumb fuck making a lot of meaningless noise.

It takes  a heap of stupid to make a human  a christian.

Mindless rubbish . You and your ilk can not compete educationally,
intellectually , and obviously linguistically with the great minds of
the scientific community. Your your idiotic belief in the christian
myths shows what limited capacity to learn and exercise critical

The following website contains a rather scathing reference to Richard
Dawkins "The God Delusion" by one Terry Eagleton, whom another website
indicates is a Marxist. Whether Christian or not, I don't know.
However there was section Eagleton wrote which has a bearing on this
topic.
