ITT poor understanding of Christian theology

Which one? There are several schools, and each thinks its the correct one.

I like the ones that think they're correct, but that it almost doesn't matter and everyone is saved anyway.

And then there are the Calvinists…

The point is people actually practicing Christianity as it was originally meant to be practiced will inevitably end up in socialist bent. Jesus was a poor person. He hung out with beggars and prostitutes.

There are no rich men in the Kingdom of Heaven. There are no billionaires in paradise. Billionaires do not go to Heaven. In the end, every last one of them burns.

That is what I believe. That is my version of Christianity. I take the "eye of the needle" passage very literally.

There are definitely kings and aristocrats in heaven so you're wrong.

Are you talking about the vast majority of people who call themselves "christian"?
