@fiester said in Why is the Ray Peat community so far right?:
So the Bible here is not condemning the rich, simply saying they are more concerned about things that aren't of spiritual value.
What do you think this would lead to, naturally? What do you think happens when you're more concerned about things than about Heaven?
He was not commanding ALL rich men to give everything they have unto the poor, but he was telling how this one man who wanted to please God, how he could further please Him.
Hm... What makes him different?
Not sure how this helps you at all promote communism, it clearly points out how the ratio of what you put in to what you have is pleasing to God. I guess rich people=bad because not giving more? Pretty weak.
Why wouldn't they? Do they need the money?
