Communism represents the pinnacle of virtue one can
aspire to. At its core, communism is about giving everything you have and
receiving only what you need. A clear example of this is the communism practiced
by the early Christians. The apostles collected all the money, goods, and
property from the believers—those who had much gave everything, and those with
little did the same. Then, the apostles distributed these riches among the
community, not equally, but according to each person’s needs. A family with
four children received more than a single person; those unable to fend for
themselves were given the support they required, while those who were healthy
and capable received less. Everyone contributed their utmost effort and the
best of their abilities in their work, even knowing that their earnings
wouldn’t be kept entirely for themselves but shared among their brothers and
sisters. Is there a greater example of generosity? Is there, then, a higher virtue?
If only communism—the noble communism practiced by those early Christians—had
endured through time…
A chance encounter will take him far away, on a thrilling adventure full of action and emotion that will change his life... but also the lives of everyone around him…
