      @@cadulino83 You are IGNORANT of history. expert on Roman-Christian history, president of The Master's College, John MacArthur: "“We know from secular history that various movements of women’s liberation and feminism appeared in the Roman empire during New Testament times. ... Much as in our own day, some women were demanding to be treated exactly like men and they attacked marriage and the raising of children as unjust restrictions of their rights. They asserted their independence by leaving their husbands and homes, refusing to care for their children, living with other men, demanding jobs traditionally held by men, wearing men’s clothing and hairdos, and by discarding all signs of femininity. It is likely that some of the believers at Corinth were influenced by those movements and, as a sign of protest and independence, refused to cover their heads at appropriate times.”

      I could not want to be poor from today till tommorow. But the only way ill help myself out of poverty is by hard work making a living. The focus should be on work oppurtunities not free handouts. Charity is to help people get back on their feet not to keep somebody poor.
      If somebody is lazy, he can say he doesn't want to be poor but poor he will remain.

      Americans are fed this notion that if you’re poor, it’s either because “god wants it” or you’re not working hard enough to come out of it. As if there aren’t plenty of Americans with jobs sleeping in cars because they still can’t afford a house. There’s also this notion that helping others is a handout, or that it’ll create a nation of lazy people who take advantage of the system/government.
      It’s sad that Americans don’t know how to look at the example of some other countries and see how things can work: in Denmark, not only is university free, government pays you a salary to study - this way, you get superior education because you want it, not because your parents are rich enough to afford it. If you don’t want to study, it’s also ok, salaries pay well enough for you to live comfortably, even if you’re the rubbish cleaner. For an American, this apparently is “communism” and it’s “bad.” 🙄

When the government taxes workers, all the guns of the government are collectively pointed at that persons head, forcing them to turn over their hard earned money to elites in government.

      As a Christian I agree.

      Like keeping weed illegal, despite it having stuff found in our bodies. That doesn't kill people. That we KNOW helps with medical issues.
      Yet we NEED to have tobacco which is a LITERAL POISON that does NOT help with medical issues and makes them WORSE.
      With weed that was made illegal due to racist reasons, and NOT medical.
      They also have this own "Pull myself up by my bootstraps" BS which is 100% NOT in The Bible. NOWHERE do you hear in the New Testament "Just work yourself SUPER hard and make sure to NEVER give handouts to people"
      When in fact it's the opposite, Jesus LITERALLY says that feeding the homless is to feed him. That what we do to other humans, we do to Jesus.
      But yeah, God Forbid we give Health Care to Jesus. God Forbid we make sure Jesus has enough food to eat. God Forbid that we make sure Jesus is NOT homeless. etc. etc.

      You know, if you asked people on the street if they wanted to be as wealthy as Jeff Bezos, I'd bet most of them would say yes. And yet, none of them would be. I guess he needs to go back to the drawing board on that slogan. because no one (not even Jeff Bezos) is as wealthy as they want to be, and no one who is poor, wants to be poor.

      You know, not everyone has the same work ethic. Someone who works the same 3 minimum wage jobs and complains about being poor is not doing all they can and being smart with their time. They should be either investing (in themselves or economically), working to MOVE UP in a company (long hours in the same, low-paying position won't get you very far), or starting their own business. I'll add, everyone wants to be as rich as Jeff Bezos, but do you really think those people will sacrifice what he has and are able to do what he's done?? The answer is no.

      It's true, that's what this country is about being able to carve your own path, obviously you can't be as rich as you want, but anyone with the drive can make 100k a year, more than enough to give them a life and set their children up for building generational wealth. wealth takes time(generational), luck, hustle, skill, or smarts to build and you have to figure out which ways is possible for you, like not everyone can be a football player, or the creator of the smartphone.

      Fun fact: In Islam we believe that one should do his part then pray for the best. There was a story about a man who was asking the prophet whether to leave his camel untied and just trust in God's protection that the camel won't be stolen or run away, or to tie the camel. The prophet's answer was to tie the camel, then have faith in Allah. Which simply means that we should do everything on our part, and have faith in God that what we did was enough, because naturally, we can't control all variables of a situation.
      So simply put, "we can't pray our problems away" is quite an Islamic answer, and through its application, one is a better worshipper.🤷‍♀️

The US has ruined a dozen countries in the name of democracy, where only a few have actually achieved this so -called goal the US fought so hard and wasted soldiers for, and killed millions of CIVILIANS on the way. This is why they pay aid, not because they want to, but because they are obliged to. Take Ilhans country - the US has reduced it to the rubble it has been in for the past 2 decades in order to prevent communism taking route, but the funny thing is under communism Somalia was always better than it is in the present.

And at his gate lay a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, who longed to satisfy his hunger with what fell from the rich man's table; even the dogs would come and lick his sores. The poor man died and was carried away by the angels to be with Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried. In Hades, where he was being tormented, he looked up and saw Abraham far away with Lazarus by his side. He called out, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am in agony in these flames.' But Abraham said, 'Child, remember that during your lifetime you received your good things, and Lazarus in like manner evil things; but now he is comforted here, and you are in agony.

      Where does God live? Within everyone. It is how God "Works through us" and doesn't have a thing to do with buildings such as temples, churches, mosque etc. Those are places people gather to learn and worship according to their beliefs.
      It is written in many writings worldwide we are God's temple. Including the Bible.
      Regardless whether or not a person does or doesn't believe in God (or whatever Name given) or what religion, God lives within. So, each person is the "church" or "temple" but not a building or the heart. Heart is figurative but can mean literal in the sense if people are good hearted or not. However, even this can be deceiving and subjective. Many can appear good hearted when they're not. As well, people who appear to be heartless can suddenly do something remarkable that help a person or people.
      God knows people's hearts as God knows everything. Nothing is hidden.

      Kirsten Guest or maybe he did actually grow up in poverty and worked hard to get out of it and then saw himself as a perfect example of how other can people can also work hard to get out of poverty. People often have this preconceived notion that it’s impossible to escape poverty. I’m gonna use myself as an example, if that’s ok with you. My mom is a divorced mother of 2 living on a teacher salary with no other income. At 14, I got a job and helped my mother pay the bills at our house. I also worked hard in school and got a 30 on the ACT in my freshman year. I then kept up my job while also working hard in school. Now, as a graduate, I got a 35 on my ACT, finished with a 4.0 GPA, participated in multiple sports, was a member of Honor Society, and created our school’s debate club, and finally I became valedictorian. I’ll be attending college at Dartmouth University with a near full ride scholarship, and the rest of it can be payed off with the money that I saved up from my job. I get so disgusted when people talk about how you can’t escape poverty because it’s honestly a disservice to my life when people claim that. Sure I may not have been homeless, but if someone from a poor family with little hope in the future can rise to an Ivy League college through hard work, then it can’t possibly be that hard for a homeless person to go out and get a job
