Does Socialism contradict the Bible?

“Socialism, as it’s actually defined and as it’s actually practiced historically, is fundamentally contrary to Christian thought.”
— Jay Richards, Senior Fellow, The Discovery Institute

Jay Richards looks to the 10 Commandments to explain why the Bible presupposes an economic system that contradicts Socialism. Richards explains why respect for private property has been important throughout history, and why private property is at the root of Christian community.
