Wintery Knight and Desert Rose define socialism, and contrast socialist policies with free market policies. We discuss why a growing number of people find socialism attractive. We discuss several Bible verses cited by socialists who argue that Jesus was a socialist or that Jesus taught socialism. This is the first episode of a three-part series.
