they were extorting money from the people and he was for transparency in banking this is neither a socialist nor a Capitalist thing. sort of a libertarian ideal of transparency.

I always sort of took it that he was both mad at the money changers and mad at the temple leadership for allowing such extortion , money is not Gods it is a tool of man , that tool could have been used to pay temple repairs , bills, salaries ect. just as well in the trade currency as in the temple currency and the exchange was just a side hustle of the temple leadership and the money changers.

using gods name to steal from gods people.

My favorite answer. I think the terms liberal or conservative would mean literally nothing to Jesus. Wouldn’t he embody both?

You cannot downgrade Jesus into a political figure. What a silly discussion.

The standard issue sin of conservatives is usually greed I think. Whereas the standard issue sin of liberals is Envy. Seems like to me.

did Jesus lobby/harangue Rome to care for the poor?

no, He did not.

(at least, it is nowhere in the Bible if He did)

if you willingly pay a certain amount for a good or service and that good or service is as advertised, that is a transaction; not a theft.

capitalists are not thieves. thieves are thieves.

There, fixed it for ya.

The money lenders were clearly socialist.
Onerous taxes and wealth distribution are classic signs of socialism.
Some try to call it "crony capitalism", but we all know that's just a mendacious and disingenuous phrase for dirty rotten socialism.

Jesus did not own property or even a home, he walked almost always so he created a small foot print, he protested against religious leaders and secular leadership, he stated render onto leadership what is theirs, he valued educating others greatly, he had no regular source of income and lived off the alms of others as did his disciples. He shared greatly what was reaped, consistently raised the value of those outside the accepted culture and demonstrated frequently is disappointment in those that talked the talk but did not walk the walk. Does that make him a socialist or a capitalist? Each of us have the God given thinking ability to choose whatever we want to believe. He asked us to love one another and to love all, which we have a very difficult time doing and it seems the further away in time from his ministry here the less loving and caring we become.

Have you got any Scripture to back up any if this? I'll give you the "render unto Ceaser" (even though I believe you are taking that out of context), but how about the rest?

The Roman's were against any perceived threat to their power. A King would fit the bill.
