When I am driving around in my car I like to put on AM right-wing christian radio, for fun.  It seems like every time I put it on the topic it is how evil Socialism is.  That non-christians are trying to push the U.S. into a socialist country so it will be ready to join Europe and the west of the world as a one world gov't.  And this thine one world gov't all our rights will be taken away, and religion would be out lawed. They claim with socialism you are getting rid of god controling your life and replacing it with a gov't that controls your life.  Socilism = controlled vs. Free Market system = Freedom. And on some radio shows the point they are getting at is the anti-christ will be the one leading this one world gov't.

 

So I had  a few thoughts and questions.

 

1.  Wouldn't christians WANT socialism to happen if they believe it would trigger the seccond coming for christ?  Why would they be trying to stop socialism?

 

2.  Who has more fear of socilism?  christians or political right wingers?

 

3.  And is their worries even a real concern?  Is there any chance the U.S. can become a full socialist country?

 

Feel free to add any other thoughts on the topic as well.

Actually you're saving huge amounts of time by not researching what you're talking about.
Ehhhh...I don't think you are using the word socialism the same as most people. By claiming the US is already socialist you are clearly using the word in some new way. Why can't we have one dictionary so that we're all on the same page?

I do agree with your Big Mommy/Big Daddy theory though. But that is not a socialist/capitalist dichotomy there.

Nathan Young That's true Jonathan Brown.  At one time I was a member of the MRA board when it was more open towards hearing an orthodox Mormon views on things.  Since that time the MRA is now under the stewardship of a new 'religion' the 'Society for Humanistic Mormonism' which is merely another apostate religion.  It will fail just like all other apostate forms of Mormonism have failed including might I add the Mormon "Transhumanist" Association and their kind, and all the front…

Hello fellow atheists!  I have joined this site in an attempt to find other rational individuals, such as myself, and to promote a current charity drive that I am trying to get going for the Oklahoma tornado victims.  I have managed to get many groups from around my area, including the Beyond Belief Foundation to back me on this endeavor. 

I am located in Newnan, Ga and have my own atheist group entitled "Coweta County Atheists".  I am currently being backed by Spaulding Co.…
