Not gonna eat roadkill, until and unless it's absolutely necessary:). Not sure Jesus would teach us to do that.

There is nothing wrong with money.  It is the love of money that is the problem and we are instructed in the scriptures not to love money (1Tim. 3:3; 1Tim. 6:10; 3Tim. 3:2).

It sounds to me like this guy has turned his "living without money" into an "idol of the heart."  I also noticed that he uses the "free" public library to maintain his blog.  As we all know, a public library exist because of tax dollars, and therefore isn't "free" for those whose hard working dollars support it.:o

Good eye, Rene.   Same thing goes for medical assistance and a whole host of other things that he can't provide himself. 

Talk about your wolf in sheep's clothing.  hehe
