First socialism and Bible-
Christ encourages individualism (not owning a property) well guess what , God has given Canaan for the Jews to own so... you've got to stop Using the scriptures out of context and using a Socialist Christ , God let the people choose their kings and even commanded them to follow authority.
Second, socialism and authority and influence, does it propose to demolish education then? since it's the primary culprit of setting standards and influence in this world . following the influences of the society, in opinion or on what is good or bad hinders people ... (anyway i dont get this part ,a lot of contrasts )
And third socialism and competition - In my opinion a world without competition is the most demoralizing situation man will ever face, when goods have no value and initiatives are not given recognition, when people stop working because that is "what man is" without drivers, then instead of what the author believes to be a eutopia, we'll get a dead planet. - Learta Mustafashared an impression5 years ago

💡Learnt A LotI probably just fundamentally disagree with his ideas on a political level but understand and sympathize with his ideas specifically regarding the free expression of art.
Quotes
- Stephen Owidihas quotedyesterday
He endured the ecclesiastical authority of the Jewish Church, and would not repel its violence by any violence of his own. - Stephen Owidihas quotedyesterdayIn the modern stress of competition and struggle for place, such sympathy is naturally rare, and is also very much stifled by the immoral ideal of uniformity of type and conformity to rule which is so prevalent everywhere, and is perhaps most obnoxious in England.
- Stephen Owidihas quotedyesterdayShallow speakers and shallow thinkers in pulpits and on platforms often talk about the world’s worship of pleasure, and whine against it.
