I don't believe I ever said anything in relationship to Wal-mart being the Anti-Christ, since Wal-Mart is not an individual. I do think Wal-Mart practices horrible corporate values. It exploits labor here in the United States, is very destructive of other businesses, has wiped out commerce in many small towns, has knowingly hired illegals and forced its employees to work off the books, is responsible for very nasty sweat shops and child labor in the third world, and could pay higher wages and offer better benefits and still make quite a reasonable profit. But no, not the Anti-Christ.

Like several other volume retailers, I believe Wal-Mart deliberately ensures that most of its workers do not work fulltime, because it is trying to get out of paying good benefits. And I think Jesus would agree with me that in a country that is very, very wealthy, there is no reason at all that everyone should not have excellent health care benefits.
