Funny thing about this one - the fundies claim it as "evidence" for an
historical Jesus, but don't believe what's in it because it isn't
canon.

Matthew 10:
34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send
peace, but a sword.
35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the
daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her
mother in law.
36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.
37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me:
and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

I do appreciate the fact that he repeatedly in Thomas
rejects the businessman or merchant as having no place
in heaven. It's probably the earliest example of something
like Marxism that I've seen.

You should read "Acts" if you want to see some biblical basis for
Marxism.

You should read "Acts" if you want some early insight into Marxism.
