Part of the trouble I have with the agnostic position is the idea that there might be "some" god, or gods. That line of thinking is so short as to...
Historically, "wealth leveling" has always resulted in more poverty for the masses and a greater disparity between the haves and have nots.
Do you really want government to determine what's selfish and what's not? I agree, that selfishness is totally against Christ's teachings. You're...
I didn't imply that there were no other civilizations, my question was about the current state of world affairs that has developed. While I'm...
Some might say that socialism returns the money to those who produce it, but if that's true, why take it in the first place? I also think some...
Wow! is intellectual honesty refreshing, or what? :) Jaitaiyai just in case you might be interested in what I believe the Bible teaches about...

Money is just a manmade representation of value and the task of producing value (which is represented by money in our society) is as worthy as any...
You miss the "born again" thing. When you become a child of God, it's impossible to "unbecome". If there was more than one way to heaven, people...
