socialism
[ˈsōSHəˌlizəm]
NOUN
a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole."
-----
Jesus is shown as advocating for the equality of all souls, but not the equality of outcome anywhere.
His, give to Caesar, shows his respect for the hierarchical system that was in place then, as now.
Jesus believed in social programs for the poor etc. but Jesus was not what one would call a socialist.
Jesus was more like a Canadian than an American.
