I believe two things are morally correct with respect to caring for others - Christ's teachings and King Benjamen's teachings.
Two beautiful examples of socialist thought.
I trust you agree.
You are a leftist. Thank you, and please turn the light out as you leave the room (and, by the way, you didn't answer the questions).
Nothing is going to startle us more when we pass through the veil to the other side than to realize how well we know our Father [in Heaven] and how familiar his face is to us

Yup. Me, Jesus, and Benjamen. You can play too, Loran, but Jesus said you'll need to smarten up.

I see utterly nothing in the words or doctrines of Jesus or Benjamin even remotely similar to socialist teachings.
Indeed, had today's socialists been around in Jesus' time, he very probably would have given them the same treatment as he gave the money changers and spoken of them in the same terms he used to describe the scribes and Pharisees (who's descendents they are).

These were popular with conservative house wives who did not need to explain bananas to the kids. Especially popular were the vibrating types also known as electrical bananas back when they were a sudden craze.

It also means just something phony or shallow, which is the way Rush Limbaugh has always used it in his tongue-in-cheek description of liberals, and that's the way I mean it to be taken.

Ah. Dune! Great book. Terrible movie (1984). Better but still unsatisfying modern version (2000). Hearing rumors of one for 2014.
Actually, I loved the movie. It was one of the only movie versions of a novel I've ever seen in which the overall atmosphere of a novel was well captured. Kyle McLaughlin was also well chosen to play Paul, as he closely resembled the character as described in the book (at least within my own imagination).
But how could a two hour movie ever really represent the nuts and bolts of a 500 page novel?

I liked the general aesthetic, but having the characters thoughts narrated didn't work well on screen. And Sting is a terrible actor.
