    The 1% control 99% of the wealth.

    I don't see anything wrong with most of those quotes.

    Would it be wrong for the 99% to form a political party?

    How is it "anti-life" to say "If you produce more then you need, in fact more then you can possibly consume, then you need to share with those who can not sustain the minimum requirements of survival on what they are capable of producing"? It may be anti-WEALTH, but it is pro-LIFE. No one is...

    If you don't like paying taxes then move, no one is keeping you here by gun point. By choosing to live in America then you are agreeing to pay taxes, it is not theft it is a voluntary relationship.

    Taxes are not theft. Taxes are legally voted in laws that the majority agree to. You object to the term "slavery" to refer to someone who works full time but can not earn the nessesitites of life and can never earn their way out. Yet you call paying taxes "being robbed at gun point"...

    It's enough to make an American wish we never declared our independance from you guys.

    Eudaimona aka mark, It sounds like we have a different idea of what people should or should not have a "right" to. You believe If you were born lucky (to rich parents, in a good economy, with some lucky breaks in life and perhaps even some high demand talents) you have a RIGHT to your own a...

    The Worst Addiction Ever

    Actually yes, money addiction is a lot like food addiction. There is a certain amount needed to survive. There is another amount that may or may not be very good for you but it adds pleasure and probably doesn't hurt you too much. Then there is "dangerously" too much or even "sinfully' too...

    The Path to HD

    Oh, then I guess you really are a sociopath. You should treat your son more kindly or you'll end up in a home where they mistreat you when you get old.

    The Path to HD

    Dear bluelightning You sound like a bully, a narcissist, and a sociopath. If what you said in your OP is true you are evil and I will stand by Steve and all the other people who have the courage to listen to their moral compass and stand by what is right. And together we will find a way to...

    Online Survey to Help Choose a Church

    K.eliza91 You know what you could do? Sit alone in the crying room (a sound proof room made to take children if they cry). It is usually empty. Once you've watched a few times maybe you will be comfortable sitting in the back... Then socializing, etc

    Why is it that, when hard times approaches, the poor...?

    I think it's because the rich, having money, feel they can take care of them selves. The poor on the other hand know they need to take care of each other. In a way it's about mutual gain. If a poor person donates to a fund that repairs people's cars for instance, they know that someday it may...

    Would it be wrong for the 99% to form a political party?

    That is a cold, crule way to look at it. I do not believe in a cast system: that if you were lucky enough to come from a rich or middle class family you can have anything you want, but if not you don't deserve to live. Do you believe in karma? That's people are born into poor families as...

    Would it be wrong for the 99% to form a political party?

    It is not immoral to vote your own best interest. The 1% do and at the expense of others. I knew a girl who was homeless and sleeping in her car, working 40 hours a week, but she couldn't make rent. (At the time a tiny 10 foot by ten foot studio was 850 a month, a one small one bedroom 1200...

    Wedding Services

    If someone hated me and didn't want to bake me cake, but I forced them to against their will.... I would be afraid to eat that cake. I would think the very least they would do is a deliberately bad job and charge me full price. The very worst....

    how does one start a house church?

    I moved to a new area where I am having trouble finding a new church. I was considering starting a house church using the online videos and study guides from Woodland hills Church which I have been enjoying personally for years. How does one go about starting a house church or small group in...

    Let's try to be kind

    Okay using myself as an example again: Someone I disagree with is mean and baliggerent: What a jerk! This just proves their side is wrong and mainly supported by jerks Someone I agree with is mean and belligerent: Now you make our side look bad! We're supposed to sound like the rational...

    Can you explain that a little better? Like for example?

    There may be suffering, but without God, suffering would be torture

    This is partially why I do not believe Hell is endless conscious torment. God is all good, all loving, and created pain for a reason: to let you know when something is wrong. Children born without the ability to feel pain always die young. They could have a broken leg and never know...
