Comment on Socialism is the actual teaching of Jesus

If your argument is that the whole bible is unreliable due to canon selection that’s a totally viable argument to make. But that then goes both ways and means that you can’t make an argument about anything Christ did or did not teach or do. It means, you can neither make the argument that Jesus was for eating animals or against it, because any scripture supporting any of these points was subject to canon selection and thus is unreliable.

Of course the whole thing is unreliable, due to selection. Still there was a selection done. You are almost there.
