the Wesleyan Gospel

The  Methodist Church was founded by a Christian by the name of John Wesley, a man so cognizant of the true implications of Christ's vision for us that he once said, "If I'm not run out of town, then I didn't preach the Gospel."  You see, John Wesley deeply overstood that Christ's vision for us was a vision of spiritual reliance, wherein our materialistic needs are expected to be taken care of through faith.  in other words, spiritual communism.  You laugh, or grab your gun maybe, but its true.  Capitalism is antithetical to the Gospel of Christ.

Chew on this, patriotic American - Acts, Chapter 4:


32 All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had. 33 With great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And God’s grace was so powerfully at work in them all 34 that there were no needy persons among them.

That's communism, folks.  Otherwise known as the Spiritual Life.  Read it and weep.
Now this - Acts, Chapter 5:

Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. With his wife’s full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself, but brought the rest and put it at the apostles’ feet.
Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land? Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God.”
When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died. And great fear seized all who heard what had happened. Then some young men came forward, wrapped up his body, and carried him out and buried him.
About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened.Peter asked her, “Tell me, is this the price you and Ananias got for the land?”
“Yes,” she said, “that is the price.”
Peter said to her, “How could you conspire to test the Spirit of the Lord? Listen! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”
10 At that moment she fell down at his feet and died. Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband. 11 Great fear seized the whole church and all who heard about these events.

Be faithfully communist or perish under God's wrath, motherfuckers.  Hahaha! All the capitalist pigs have been keeping this shit secret for 2000 years, can you believe it?  No wonder early Christians were persecuted - they weren't persecuted for their religious beliefs, but for their economic beliefs.  Early Christians were persecuted for the same reasons socialist and communist governments are persecuted today - they disavow the preeminence of private property, noting how "ownership" cultivates greed, ego, and materialism.  Remember the name Jesus called the Pharisees and the Sadducees - the Bankers and the Lawyers?  Mmm that's right, he called them "hypocrites."  he called them that over and over again, as in, "Organized religion was invented by banker and lawyer hypocrites who know the value of Spiritual Life and co-opt it for their own satanic purposes."

Here's one I'm fond of, from 1 Timothy 6:10:  

"For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows."

And there you have it.  Capitalist pig motherfuckers fed early Christians to lions, bombed Yugoslavia, overthrew Salvador Allende, financed Hitler, created an opioid epidemic from Afghanistan's poppy fields, want  to overthrow socialist Venezuela and are scared shitless of post-communist Russia and China leading BRICS - ya'll think the colonies of Brazil, India, and South Africa might have any resentment towards the ruling class?  The Global Rebel is the exploited, unrepresented working class, and the dawning of the New Republic is here.

This doesn't mean we all need to become communist.  Relax, take your finger off the trigger.  

What it means is that we all have to become spiritual.  We already are, actually - we just need to end being pressured to be materialistic.  We can stop the rat race, relatives, there's plenty to go around if nobody gets too greedy.  Being spiritual is all it takes for capitalism to stop being ruthless and start being caring.  

And caring is sharing, which is voluntary communism.  See how easy that was?  Heart-centered capitalism may well out-compete a voluntary communism, but they're basically the same thing - sharing our abundance with those in greatest need.  This is actually the recipe for happiness, but see how it doesn't hoard capital but rather gives it away freely, like a tree offers fruit?  In nature, capital depreciates.  An apple is worth less day after day, so share it now!  Apple pies decay the same way.  Nature decays, so nature's capital decays.  This stimulates spending rather than hoarding- i mean, saving.  Hoarding goes against the Laws of Nature, the Laws of Dharma.  It also goes against the Gospel - Jesus says, (Matthew 6):


19 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
...
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[e]?

28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Relatives, this doesn't sound like investment advice from Goldman fucking Sachs now does it?  This is why capitalist countries all have so much cool shit and so much depression.  We're hypocrites.
Capitalism is the economic technique of hoarding capital.  Don't take my word for it - just look around.  Something about the 99% wanting a say in things... Did you know that before we bombed Gaddafi, every Libyan had free healthcare and free education, including college?  If they got accepted they could go to any university in the world for free - paid for by the sovereign socialist nation of Libya.  The largest irrigation project IN THE WORLD was in Libya, in the Sahara, turning the desert into a garden.  America bombed the shit out of everything in Libya especially the irrigation, because a government that pays for social services is failing to hoard maximum capital and self-sufficiency is anathema to Empire.

Please allow this to sink in:  Capitalists despise socialism because socialism doesn't hoard capital, but spends it on the unworthy. The key element of capitalism is that it has replaced spiritual values with materialistic ones, and in so doing, promoted a dark, secretive, and enslaving agenda rather than the agenda of Christ.

Yugoslavia was targeted not for ‘humanitarian’ reasons as many still believe, but simply because it was socialist.  Slobodan Milosovich was exonerated posthumously by the UN, did you know that?  Of course you didn't, it was kept secret.

"In post Cold War Europe, no place remained for a large, independent minded socialist state that resisted globalisation."
     - George Kenney, deputy chief of Yugoslav office of the US State Department.

Socialism is good for people and the planet.  Because socialism is committed to the public welfare, it is perpetually reinvesting its resources into the commons, which is antithetical to the capitalist motivation of hoarding wealth.  Dragons with their mountains of gold that they can't ever eat are the archetypical capitalists - hoarding is a very reptilian agenda, not the agenda of Christ.

Hoarding is a root chakra-centered, survival based, competitive instinct - economists call it 'rational self-interest.'  Christ aspires to lead us into the irrational, forgiving and cooperating wisdom of the heart.  Peace is a good thing and we are creating more of it by the day, but the more peace we have the less threats we feel, and when we don't feel threatened we don't hoard.  Peace, too, is bad for capitalism - genuine peace promotes sharing, and genuine sharing promotes peace, and nothing gets sold when people share, and nobody makes money, so nobody pays any taxes, and the oligarchs don't get their beaks wet, and they are strangled of the funds they need to keep their boots on our necks.  As we can see, a world that is best for business is big brother with his boot on our neck and his propaganda on our mind.  Food forests are 'bad for business', staying healthy is bad for business, clean, free, water is bad for business, inner peace is bad for business...  In fact, cancer prevention is 'bad for business', which is why they have races for cures rather than races for prevention.  Prevention would mean banning all food that wasn't organic, you stupid motherf-  I mean, hypocrites.
Under John Wesley's direction, Methodists became leaders of many social issues of the day, including prison reform and the abolition of slavery.  Do you see how the spiritual principles we are compelled to live by affect our politics?  Spirituality affects our politics.  Jesus was whacked because he was politically dangerous, do you see?  He preached a vision of people sharing in abundance with one another, which spelled doom for the hoarding reptilian bloodline oligarchs.  And the rest is (a secret) history...

It is self-evident that only a hypocritical Christianity could tolerate the present political climate.  We are ripe for another Methodist revolution, one that calls out secular capitalism and its corollary, class struggle, as the primary creators of poverty, which goes against God's will.  Someone needs to tell the Americans that all Europe is filled with this thing called Christian Socialism, its actually quite real people vote for it all the time...

Communism is the technique of distributing, rather than hoarding, capital.
Socialism is free market capitalism, with a safety net that provides for the people's welfare and a ceiling that prevents hoarding, reinvesting any surplus into the safety net.

Capitalism = winner take all.  Loser forced to rebel.
Communism = loser take all.  Winner forced to rebel.
Socialism = winner take most.  Loser left with abundance.  Competition continues indefinitely without rebellion.
Of course, its entirely possible for a ruthlessly capitalist economy to encounter a culturally sophisticated market that demands, and ultimately invests in, some sort of cost-effective safety net, purely for security reasons.  Prevention being worth more than a cure, it makes sense to cost effectively prevent wars, violence, and insecurity from breaking out by cheaply providing all the planet's various ecologies with an abundance of food, water, and plant medicine - I mean, just having online classes that teach kids to garden, basically.  I mean, how hard could it be for some smart social network to create some kind of educational program that makes sure everyone everywhere always has enough to eat, some clean drinking water, some raw materials for building and clothing, and security, right, just by entertainingly getting everybody out there gardening, and promoting it politically?  Because the kids we teach gardening to are going to need jobs - oh, wait, not really, because the robots will have all the jobs by then - what I mean is that there will be an enormous amount of work to do- clean rivers and oceans and air and forests, etc.  Ecological rehabilitation.  These kids will graduate into a world that needs their earth-healing skills, and we need our vegetables to come without high fructose corn syrup, for fuck's sake.  This capitalist, culturally sophisticated economy could even willingly submit to a voluntary ceiling, unenforced by government but heavily enforced by the social networks who would shamelessly shame the multi-billionaires.  Or better yet, encourage the multi-billionaires to invest in free market socialnetworkism!  And particularly that one anarchist nonprofit competing for attention online...

Just so you are aware, Bill Mollison, who invented the word permaculture, says,
"We live in a world with a power hierarchy, and gardening makes us self-sufficient, which removes us from the power hierarchy.  Gardening is thus a subversive act.  The reason revolutionaries of the past failed is because they used words and bullets rather than gardens."  I would say that the reason revolutionaries of the past failed is because they used words, bullets, and - if you count Jesus - miracles, rather than gardens. 
Me, I say healthy competition is healthy, and ruthless competition isn't.  Ruthless competition creates Too-Big-To-Fail-Banks, like big fish eating small fish.  Healthy competition respects limits, or rules, like a five yard penalty for an offensive false start in football.  That's what makes it healthy - competition is healthy when it exists within a greater context of cooperation.  Players agree to play by the rules, which exist for the greater good of the game.  When that greater context of cooperation is abandoned, or maliciously hidden, healthy competition becomes unhealthy, dangerous, and ruthless.  Healthy competition, embedded in cooperation, is socialism, which, when it becomes unhealthy and ruthless, becomes capitalist.

Socialists, then, could be said to view greed as detrimental to the greater good of the game.

I'd like to be a millionaire maybe, and I wouldn't be against being a multi-millionaire, and I could even stand being a mega-millionaire, but I think its wise to draw the line right there and discourage people from becoming billionaires.  Billionaires have enough wealth to game the system, overthrow sovereign nations, and manipulate everything.  Let's voluntarily give ourselves limits, and acknowledge that our Republic needs that from us if it is to remain secure.  The fact that our neo-Roman oligarchs are publicly hoarding so much, gaming the system, overthrowing sovereign nations, and lying about everything at a time when so much is needed reveals, in my opinion, what incredibly bad taste they have.  Maybe they don't see a way out - maybe they are just waiting for me to pitch a strategy worth investing in on this website!  Go fund this, assholes...

You wanna know something else?  I'd say a fascist is just a proletariat without an education.
There i did it.  Go ahead and shoot now I'm done.
No wait - Jesus said, "Blessed is he who does not take offense at me" (Matthew 11:6)
