If I'm wrong, I'll be HAPPY to be corrected, but my take on what little I've heard of Jim Wallis' version of Christianity is that it's seriously FLAWED.

Hey Jim!

Jesus did not come to earth to help 'poor' people.

He came to get back what Adam lost in the Garden of Eden.

I guess you could argue that since man could be said to be impoverished by virtue of Adam's actions, that he was here for poor people.

But not in any way close to the manner in which I understand you've tended to present the case.

Hi LoveDoc! You wrote: "I guess you could argue that [Jesus] was here for poor people...But not in any way close to the manner in which I understand you've tended to present the case."

I'd like to comment on that, but I don't know what you mean. Could you give me a specific example?
