How about the Parable of the Talents?
There are hundreds of Scripture references to the concept of capitalism, throughout the OT and NT. Growing money is a constant. Owning property is a constant.
The ONLY references to socialism are in the context of the Israelite theocracy and early Christianity, and it was a function of survival.

so is being a capitalist supposed to prohibit me from christianity? i don't get it. sure jesus told us to pay taxes and obey the laws of man so far as they don't conflict with spiritual belief, does that make him socialist? jesus in the flesh was the son of god, his purpose was not self serving, therefore he was not economically affiliated. how does economic policy pertain to religion?

the bible only mentions abortion in the old testament...to teach priests how to perform it on adulterous women. My guess is most people don't know their bible...lol

The New Testament model is decidedly socialist. Jesus made it very clear; we are indeed our brother's keeper.

"Sell all your possessions and give the proceeds to the poor"
Cons hate that Christ taught that. They would have called Christ a commie.

The Bible also doesn't support lust, adultary, abortion, envy, lying, false prophets, false teachers, foolish thinking, hating God, secularism, worshiping other gods...
