Dear rich bastards: what part of “Camel through the eye of a needle” do you not understand?, Daily Kos, June 21, 2010, by MinistryOfTruth, used with permission, quoted verbatim:

Yes, I am saying it. It needs to be said.

23 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!

25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

The Gospel of Mark, chapter 10

Dear BP CEO Tony Hayward, as you ride your Yacht named Bob after receiving your apology from a Texas oil Republican for the inconvenience of being implicated in the deaths of 11 human beings and the worst environmental disaster in US history, I would like to remind you that when Jesus comes back he is going to be VERY, VERY PISSED OFF.

After struggling for so long, I need to vent, and I dare any right wing nutjobs who want to hatemail me to refute the words of Jesus on this one. Isn’t denying the words of Jesus a sin?

So, Dear Wall St Banksters. Dear super wealthy human beings who have more wealth than they will ever need in a time of hunger and suffering for so, so many. Dear wealthy politicians who fight for Corporate power and the very, very rich ONLY (and we know who you are), I send this message to you on behalf of the meek who shall inherit the earth.

25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

The Gospel of Mark, chapter 10

Dear rich bastards; Congratulations! You have successfully rolled back FDR’s new deal after the first great depression, and now the second Conservative free market economic disaster is upon us, but gee, doesn’t those earthly riches feel good? The middle class is DEAD. Killed by too many Too Big To Fail big businesses, and yet the rich want even more, they feel they are “Taxed Enough Already”, they want “Their” country back, and if you do not agree you are Hitler, or on the path to Hitler, or something. You have caused the suffering of millions because of your avarice and you still want more? Therefore, I will try to appeal to your inflated sense of piety and remind you of the words of Jesus of Nazareth when he said rich people are NOT going to heaven UNLESS . . .

Think fast, rich guy! This pop quiz is pretty important.

There are no robber-barons in this new re-gilded age. There are just robber-banksters, and they will never have enough.

So to you, you loud mouth, fat cat pharisees of 2010, if you have any sense of morality at all, I will again direct you to the words of Jesus of Nazareth, because you are out of control, you are causing the suffering of your fellow man, and the sin of greed is strong upon you. Therefore, I ask you to read the words of the greatest man to ever walk the earth.

It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

I ask you this, what part of “It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.” do you not understand?

I am not saying that the rich bastards whose greed is a cause of mankind’s suffering are going to hell, Jesus did. I just blogged about it.

Note: And for those who are curious, I am not Christian, but I find it to be the height of arrogance that those who profess to be “holier than thou” happened to overlook this one, little catch about the whole getting into the kingdom of heaven thing. If it is any consolation, should my soul find it’s way to the same level of afterlife that those “Camels through the eye of a needle” end up in, I will find it my everlasting joy to remind them that all of their ill gotten wealth did not avail them a bit, and that the fires of damnation do not have a VIP section, but if it did, they would be first in line.

Kenny Goes to HELL

Dear rich bastards, if Kenny ends up in hell, what chance do you think you have?

Peace and love to all, even the rich bastards on their way to the inferno.

Comment by Evans Liberal Politics owner Paul Evans: THIS is what the rich, ultra-Christian Republicans don’t get. If a basically non-Christian liberal like Jesse LaGreca “gets it”, then what excuse do so-called Christian right wingers have for hoarding their money and exploiting ordinary workers and citizens the way they are. Minimum wage in Ohio is $7.25. Back in 2006, Goodwill here in Wayne County, Ohio, did a study to see what it takes to make a barely minimal living in this county. They found that it takes $13.92 an hour at a full time job to support a family of three at a basic level. Now, you business owners: if you’re not paying your employees at lest $13.92 an hour (and you know in your heart they are worth every penny), then I say, and Jesus says, that you are going to burn in hell. Just pointing out the obvious. I never did see why American’s didn’t scream to high heaven about receiving a decent working wage. That never did make sense to me. But it makes sense to Jesus, right? Right. Democrat business owners too — Burn, baby, burn.

Now, are you gonna talk the talk, or are you going to walk the walk? Say, it’s been pretty hot out lately, right? How hot is hot?
