Another way to put it:
Christianity: Voluntary giving
Socialism: Involuntary giving
or
Christianity: An economic system that allows the populace to become independently wealthy and therefore have greater wealth to distribute.
Socialism: An economic system where a ruling elite leach wealth from the populace and therefore have little or no wealth leftover to re-distribute. And since the ruling elite are smarter and more moral than the general populace (tongue planted firmly in cheek) this is the best system to have.
