Socialism is based on noble ideas; equality, fairness, and justice.
However, socialism has a fundamental flaw. It is assumed that the system will be administered with ideal morality. This is a quality that no human possesses. We all have lied, cheated to get ahead and oppressed others for gain. Man has innumerable other evils engrained into his being.
When you place healthcare, ability to earn a living, or freedom under the sole authority of elected, appointed, anointed, or simply the strongest; you are inviting that evil to take root. This is because you are using the moral foundation of man to rectify the injustice of other men. Equality, fairness and justice can only be administered when you have a standard of morality that is apart and sovereign over man. A standard that is morally perfect, that position is solely occupied by God. Without Him, man has to invent their own moral standard and human morality is subject to fleeting and fickle whims.
If you are seeking equality, fairness, justice, love, acceptance and all the other fundamental yearnings that we all have inscribed into our hearts, do not seek them amongst men. You must look to the source, the One that wrote those aspirations into our souls. The divine author that is embodied in our Lord Jesus Christ. Whom, thousand years ago set forth and established the path back to those ideas under the perfect moral standard of God.
