Having put your hope in Christ
who provides for all creation
and nurtures it,
keep away from all unjust gains,
and do not be too attached even to honest income.
Put it to good use
and let the poor share in it as much as possible.
- St. Gregory Palamas
this sounds a little like barack obama's idea
of spreading the wealth...how can we presume to be a
christian country without doing that?

The Good Obama may think along those lines, on occasion, etc.--raising taxes on the uber-wealthy, supporting social programs, education, etc. Then the Bad Obama takes over, and he's out playing golf with the GOP gomers, working on the latest multi-billion dollar DoD budget, cutting medicare etc. Bipolar dialectics, jh.
(check the vote rolls and ...yll note the "catholics" like Pelosi and hispanic politicians support the DoD slushbucket, nearly as often as do the WASP-zionist zombies. scary. )
great quote
