Why is this wisdom not in Leviticus, where we find all the rules about not killing, wearing mixed fabrics and all the other rules are clearly spelled out? Why did god bury it in the parables, which are left to interpretations, through Jesus? I mean, if it's the only way to haven, why is it not in the 10 commandments? Surely it has to be more important that stoning to death disobedient children?

Jesus and his closest followers are forbidden to use money, ok. How far can the be removed from money and still remain true?
They consumed fish, bread and wine. Were the farmers, millers, bakers, fishermen, market stalls just happily handing over whatever they needed?
Were friendly folks just buying it for them to give it over?
Or did the boat maker have to get free lumber, make a free boat, give it to fishermen, then fish to the non-seller so they could get truly correct fish to consume?
Did you think this through Gaetan? Where is the point everything they used would be pure enough to ensure Haven?

Gaetan do you think that disobedient children should be stoned to death?
Do you think that Jews are evil?
Do you think that non Christians should be tortured for eternity?
Jesus does.

Jesus does.
I see you can't cite a single Bible verse to back up your claim.
Let's not confuse Jesus being given goods and services, and Gaetan demanding or flat out taking them. A subtle difference he would rather not address.
That's not a road we should travel again. It's the same step. Find something written hundreds of years later, translated dozens of times, tortured more than a POW at Gitmo, and interpreted by a man suffering from insomnia. Thousands of years of people reading the same text and one man finds the "truth" but is unwilling to follow it.
How many of Jesus's teaching requires everyone else to do it before you can do it? I can't find any. So this teaching is so far removed from the rest it's almost like someone pulled it out of his own ass.
So not even Jesus is in Haven?

Doesn't have to be, as the co-owner (with his other two triadic selves) he just rents it out. Should have seen how the prices jumped when it went condo. Most had to hock their harps and halos.
If I reword it to jesus demanding and flat out taking goods and services is it possible to get an answer?
First problem, Gaetan doesn't answer, he asserts. The second problem is that Jesus never demanded goods or services, they were just provided. He never took from the unwilling. Gaetan took that example, **** all over it, and condemned us all to be his slaves.

I'm pretty sure Jesus could afford a better holiday than going to a Haven.
Haven. For when Butlins is too posh for you.
Haven seems right up his alley. Jesus was a man of the people, and haven would be in his wheelhouse. His posse would would book it for 12 and sneak him in, freeloading all the way.
No, that just means he needs to market it better. He said, a while ago, he just needs like 4 or 5 people to switch sides and then it is a majority and we all become chattel.
Profit is the goal of businesses. It is not a bad thing. The profits are used to pay employees, rent, other bills, taxes and it's what makes the economy run.
Your fantasy no money world will be a sloth like existence with people only doing the bare minimum in exchange for taking what they want.
In a no money world, only the strongest will survive. If there's a dispute over the last piece of food or merchandise, the physically strong will prevail, or those with guns.
Gaetan wants us to live in a violent "Escape From New York" type of world.

Let me guess, was that International Tiger Day or perhaps National Chili Dog Day?

I've seen predictive text make more coherent ideas. Random word generators too.
