Pseudo-Christian hypocrisy of criticizing communism despite what the Bible said ITAL Aside from the hypocritical failure of the non-violent Christians like those cited in "Violence and its Alternatives" to apply "the golden rule" to the idea of the "ends don't justify the means," the Christians have not even read their bibles very carefully. On the Internet, we have already explained this. END A man named Ananias with his wife Sapphira sold a piece of property, and with his wife's knowledge he kept back some of the proceeds, and brought only a part and laid at the apostles' feet. But Peter said, "Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back part of the proceeds of the land? While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? How is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to men but to God." When Ananias heard these words, he fell down and died.(Acts 5:1-6) ITAL mim3@mim.org comments: And pseudo-Christians have the nerve to criticize Mao with regard to "human-rights" under dictatorship of the proletariat! The Amerikan pseudo- Christians have put together entire Hollywood movies attacking Mao. Where was the humyn-rights of this owner of property mentioned above? It seems that the original Christians had their priorities straight--the basic needs of the people first! Profit second or never! END After an interval of about three hours his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. And Peter said to her, "Tell me whether you sold the land for so much." And she said, "Yes, for so much." But Peter said to her, "How is it that you have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? Hark, the feet of those that have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out." Immediately she fell down at his feet and died. When the young men came in they found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her beside her husband.(Acts 5:7-10) ITAL mim3@mim.org: That was a harsh act of proletarian dictatorship. It reminded me of Stalin. It looks like Christian communism would oppose the counterrevolution in China with its private farming, free markets and me- firstism. END
