God (yes, God) works thru economic re-distribution... |
|
Just came home from choir rehearsal. Our parish choir is rehearsing for the Advent Vespers, a lovely service built around the polyphonic medieval music of Praetorius, and whilst singing an arrangement of the "Magnificat," (the Song sung by Mary during her pregnancy) it occurred to me: "YEs, God is behind economic re-distribution.."
The words from the gospel of Luke:
"He has brought down the powerful from their thrones, and lifted up the lowly; he has filled the hungry with good things, and sent the rich away empty..."
So.. if any ring-wing fundies try to 'biblify' their ideology, just quote Luke 1: 51-53;
It's what God wants...
