It Is What It Is

I call it biblical Socialism.  I don’t really talk about how it works.  It’s just that I consider myself a Socialist, but I define it as prevention of both murder and suicide.  When we make lives better for others, they are less likely to intentionally take a Human Life or commit suicide.  How we do this is simply by enacting Socialistic programs and that is about all there is to it.  We seek to make lives better.  Capitalism feeds the one percent.  But a biblical Socialism just seeks to better the lives of all.  And that is about all there is to it.  And so, I say it is what it is.  I don’t seek to overturn Capitalism, but simply say that the wealth to some degree is shared by ALL, not just a select fortunate few.  Some say that isn’t biblical, but simply Socialism.  No.  MY thinking is that we do what we can do to PREVENT both murder and suicide and to some degree warfare.  We simply seek to make ALL lives better and that is about all there is to it.  I don’t have programs.  I don’t try to enact laws.  In fact, all I am saying is that NOTHING is more important to God than EVERY single Human Life.  No one has the right from God to intentionally take a Human Life.  That in itself is a form of Socialism when we say that EVERYONE has a right to life.  That is all there is to it. 

I have already defined when Human Life begins and that EVERY Life from that point forward is sacred.  Therefore, EVERYONE has a right to live.  We don’t even own our lives, so we don’t have a right to take our own lives.  Our lives don’t belong even to us.  Once we understand this, we understand that ALL lives are important.  That is all there is to it.  No one is more important in God’s eyes that each of us.  That right there is a form of Socialism.  In God’s Socialism, there ARE no classes.  EVERYONE is equally important and has the right to live as EVERYONE else.  I am not really talking about wealth sharing as much as I am talking about the right to life for EVERYONE.  No one has a right from God to intentionally take the life of ANYONE.  That is all there is to it.  Everyone is equal, regardless of wealth or status. 

Now, people still judge according to wealth and status.  It’s what people do.  I understand this perfectly.  But in God’s economy, everyone is equal.  Everyone has the same right to clean air and clean water as everyone else.  In God’s economy everyone has the right to live.  No one is different in God’s economy.  I have been asked about prisoners and those who are free.  If a person has intentionally taken a Human Life, he or she has lost his or her salvation already.  But no one has a right to judge such a person for God.  Only God can do this.  That is all there is to it.  It’s about the right to life.  It’s about having the same access to the earth as everyone else.  It’s about the same freedoms and making the same choices.  It’s about everyone being equal under God.  And that is all there is to it.  So, I say it is what it is and no one can change this.  Human Life is the same for ALL.  And that’s about as simple as it gets.  Peace.  I am Brother Ralphie writing for my Angels from The Angels of Life Institute.
