Warner: Socialism postulates a solution to questions of inequity through class struggle, favoring the disadvantaged over the wealthy. The Judeo-Christian ethic looks to the rejection of God’s word as the cause of failure.

This is the one part of the article I take issue with. It is entirely possible to not reject God’s word and still end up disadvantaged. C’est la vie. It would be closer to the truth to say the Judeo-Christian ethic acknowledges that there is no solution, not in this life anyway. Under this mindset, the response to social injustice in this life is to hope and pray for justice to come in the next one, and simply carry on as best you can in the meantime. Of course, one must believe in the Judeo-Christian concept of an afterlife in the first place for this approach to have any appeal at all.
