Excellent, Joshua! I was waiting for someone to get to this point.Joshua wrote:I would challenge that there can't be a "pure Christian society" even in convents or monastries. Because if humans are involved in it they will sin and stray off course. It's what we do.cslewislover wrote:As Christians we're to give much of what we earn, right? To be God's "hands" on earth. There's a difference between a Christian type of socialism (which would just be called Christian society, say) and a government imposed socialism. I don't see people making the distinction here on the board. Unfortunately, there is no pure Christian society on earth, except for maybe in a convent or monastary (and it is beyond me why Protestants don't have pure communities like these). If there are some other examples, please give them; that'd be interesting. Anyway, much of all this is idealistic, but it's actually what we're called to do in this world - be the ideal. That's my view.
