Rantings of a New Yorker

Contrast this billboard with what Jesus said in the Bible.

20 “Teacher,” he declared, “all these I have kept since I was a boy.”
21 Jesus looked at him and loved him. “One thing you lack,” he said. “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
22 At this the man’s face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth.

Mark 10:20-22
New International Version (NIV)

It’s amazing that those who want to keep onto their money and possessions use their god to try to defend holding onto worthless things while those that are poor are told that they are coveting what the rich have. The vast majority of these folks just want a chance at a decent life and adequate and affordable health care.
