Michael Moore: Christianity and socialism are the 'same thing
Who knew? Apparently Michael Moore does.
Filmmaker Michael Moore says being a Christian is the "same thing" as being a socialist.
Appearing on MSNBC's "Hardball" with Chris Matthews on Wednesday, the liberal activist, who says he voted for self-described socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (Vt.) for president in the Democratic primary, defended his decision to vote for Hillary Clinton in the general election. (Relevant portion begins around the 2:45 mark):
"You don't understand what's going to happen after 2016. These young people, these 18- to 35-year-olds — remember there's 3 million more 18-year-old voters every single year — so by the next election that's 12 million more of them," Moore said. "They favor socialism over capitalism."
Matthews interrupted, pointing out that "Hillary's not a socialist."
Moore responded: "Well, she's a Christian, so it's the same thing."
"It's all about making sure everyone has a seat at the table and the pie is divided so that everybody gets a slice," Moore added. "Isn't that what Christianity is? That's what she's about."
Pope Told Michael Moore That Capitalism Is a Sin?
Apparently Michael Moore visited the Pope where the Pope declared capitalism a "sin". Then the Pope encouraged him to go make more Left wing films.
Is this the beginning of the religious Left?
