Jude 2

I heard Shane Claiborne speak this weekend at a conference. His presentation was essentially the same as this one.


He is a pretty radical Christian, the author of "Jesus for President: Politics for Ordinary Radicals"

why does anyone think redistribution of wealth work?????????? I know it is not in this video alone but if you watcha few more it is

I like Shane. I heard him speak here not too long ago. His Irresistable Revolution is pretty good too. If nothing else, he challenges us to consider the message of Jesus in a way we most likely won't hear on a Sunday morning. Agree or not, he'll still make you think.

In his defense, Shane does not advocate Marxist/socialist redistribution of wealth; he suggests that the American-Christian obsession with consumerism is antithetical to the gospel, and that when people "get it" they will be driven by love to voluntarily choose to "live simply so that others may simply live," and he makes a fairly cogent Biblical case for his views.

I do not completely buy everything he teaches; he is totally opposed to military intervention, and does not accept that there is anything like "just war" theory --- I believe he is free to believe that because of the military.
