where does jesus say to defend greed?
chris hedges was talking about heretics who talk about this and are pro war.
I'm not defending greed. You think people who inherit wealth are greedy. You're envious. Why should you have to work hard? They don't. Envy.
people who have billions are greedy
People who inherited it aren't.

If they gave away all but 10% of it would you be happy?
Where does it say that? King Solomon was extremely rich. Was he greedy?
Why bring the KKK into a discussion about greed? Of course greed is bad. But you have a false definition of greed. People prospering by bringing goods or services to the consumer isn't greed. Envy is also sinful. And you obviously are envious of those who have more than you.

No wonder Jesus explicitly warns us that we cannot love and serve both God and money (Matthew 6:24). But there is nothing wrong with being rich. The rich are no less holy than others. One can be rich and still love God more than he loves or trusts money.
Probably doesn't know who King Solomon was.
were talking about people who twist religion
how do you know having billions or millions isnt greedy according to the bibles standards?
doesnt it depend on how they got their riches and when does it become greed?

Jesus Himself says it best:
