Tony Perkins: Jesus was a "free marketer."


A few years back, Al Franken had a great comic called "Supply Side Jesus" -- which was satire, obviously -- but not, apparently, to Tony Perkins.
Jesus rejected collectivism and the mentality that has occupied America for the last few decades: that everyone gets a trophy equal outcomes for inequitable performance. There are winners and yes, there are losers. And wins and losses are determined by the diligence and determination of the individual.
But what about all that stuff about the "last being first and the first being last" -- not to mention all those mean things Jesus said about rich people?
