There is only one group that puts a lot of focus on "other people's money". Republicans on the other hand are just trying to hang onto what they earn so they push back on policy's that would pinch them personally.
Liberals constantly whine that the US is not a Christian nation...and at the same time criticize Christians for not voting, and legislating, their Christian values. If you cannot pick the way you want things to be (and stick with the decision), you are doing nothing more than whining and spouting partisan talking points.Bruce » 19 Jul 2023, 9:06 am » wrote: ↑ Our Blessed Savior who was tortured to death on Calvary was recorded as saying something in Aramaic about how greed, avarice, selfishness, or covetness was the root of all evil.
There was also recorded the passage it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man enter heaven. Care to get into a discussion of the multiple ways the referenced comment is completely misunderstood?
What is causing the moral decay in the Republican Party today in America is they nearly all claim to be devout Christians, but hardly any fear themselves actually burning in hell. You have no clue what they fear. This comment on nothing more than you speaking out your ***.
Hell is for groomers, liberals, and pedophiles and Democrats, which are nearly all the same low IQ trash anyway.
When I was a Republican we were scared of going to hell, ourselves, if we didn’t walk the straight and narrow path that leads home.
One of the reasons I became a Democrat, was fear of hell. If you joined any political party to avoid going to hell, you clearly have no grasp on how to avoid doing so and are most likely doomed to going there.
How could any Republican sing this very old song, I learned as a child?

There’s not one thing wrong with Republicans today a good dose of the Sermon on the Mount can’t repair.

Or do they slavishly defend the indefensible rigged game resulting in satanic agglomeration of wealth - by uttering retarded tautological bromides about how a trillionaire CLEARLY "earned" his wealth by "contributing that much worth in exchange"?
Let's take Musk, since he is in favor with republicans (at the moment). Do you know how much money he has earned that did NOT come from the government - from the very establishment that most of you believe him to be eye gouging and opposing?
He got it from your government. All of it.Fuelman » 19 Jul 2023, 11:39 am » wrote: ↑ Sup effer?

Some of us could care less about Musk's money. If he didn't have it, someone else would and bottom line, it wouldn't put a nickel in your pocket.

Conservatives love to talk about how our society is collapsing. I have seen them blame (some mixture of) the following:
- Porn
- Teacher's Unions
- Democrats
- Soros DAs
- Youth not getting married (between 18-25)
- Video games
- Participation trophies
- RINOs
- Drag queens
- LGB groups
- Marxists/"Cultural Marxists"
- Child predators
- Illegal immigration
- Men competing against womyn
- Divorced/single parent families
- Lowering of standards in education and employment

Born in South Africa in 1971, Musk moved to the US at the age of 17 to attend college, gaining degrees in physics and economics. He soon founded his first company, Zip2 — an online business directory service. This venture quickly made Musk very wealthy and he sold the business to Compaq for around $300m in 1999.May 26, 2023Cannonpointer » 19 Jul 2023, 11:43 am » wrote: ↑He got it from your government.

It was all green scam.
At a previous point in our interactions, you were AGAINST socialism.
Hey, buddy, it's a rule that if you are going to discuss monetary matters, you need to reward Skans by giving him a Stock Tip.

Name one more penny that musk has made that was not from uncle sam and the green scam.

Facts suck!
Or if you make any money on the internet, government is the one paying you? Interesting position.
As a working person, yes, I pushed back on policy that dug into my bottom line. You may be surprised things have changed a bit. The struggle to be financially independent
Is real for everyone, most don't reach that point.
We have all heard the statement, "wealthy enough to be liberal", it's a thing! I retired a few years ago, my earning days are over and at this point do have some concern or at least empathy for the struggle to have some security in retirement.

No. But the indictment of this nation in the OP and follow-on posts is speaking to a nation that once had higher values.
If it doesn't apply to you, don't assume it does. Lazy thinking.
None of this invalidates his indictment. If you are looking to mitigate against our culpability for our communal Mammon worship, fine - do so. Make your case why we should not be judged Mammonites because we were only dealt Mammonite cards from a Mammonite deck.
When you're done, it's STILL gonna come back to the only possible solution - public summary exectuions and camps - lots of camps.

The news is that culture has great influence on values. For example, an Amish village has a culture, as does a convent and a monastery. Those cultures do not place greed as the highest virtue over faith, purity, industry, loyalty. thrift etc..DeezerShoove » 19 Jul 2023, 10:40 pm » wrote: ↑ It is a long tome not really needing detailed description and philosophy lesson.
Maybe it seems worse than previous years. But is it really?
The 80's was the "Me" decade after all. Probably somebody noticed it then too.
There were no stark revelations or new views warranting "explanations" taking up page after page...
The moral of the story: People suck and aren't getting any better.
Is that actually news?
I love when I see the word "only".SJConspirator » 19 Jul 2023, 10:49 pm » wrote: ↑ The news is that culture has great influence on values.

In fact. Most cultures do not elevate greed as the singular value paramount. Only conservatives and Jews do that

It’s an absolutely essential part of Christianity.
In summary, Christ said if you take in the stranger, feed the hungry, and heal the sick you are rewarded with heaven. Those that act all MAGA burn in hell.
The typical MAGA has never really read all the Sermon on the Mount and if he somehow could find it, he’d call it all a bunch of liberal socialist gimmie dat propaganda anyway.
