    Loving the new Texas gun laws

    With all the mass shootings going on lately I think this is a good idea because there are roughly 840 to every 100,000 people who are incarcerated in Texas. That’s .84% of the population which means there are 99 law abiding citizens to every 1 criminal. So if only 2% of Texans exercised their...

    The mark is right, but not correct; Armageddon is not right, but is correct (selah). Discuss.

    Hi there, So a simple distinction for you to remember when discussing the Anti-Christ and the false prophet: what they stand for, is not false in the absolute sense - just inadequate to cover the breadth of God's judgment, as pertains the power the receive from the Devil. You have to think of...

    Agreement on the change we need & why people argue

    I've spoken with a large number of people, red team, blue team, and plenty I'm not sure about, and all have agreed that CEO pay in large companies is now hundreds of times the median pay of the workers, and that it is way too high, and that life was better in 1960 for example. Reducing pay...

    Is the US drifting into Socialism?

    This may seem a really stupid question when the COVID crisis package went mainly to companies and to support the stock market, people in the lowest section of the economy live on average 14.6 years less (men) 10.1 years (women) than those higher up. But I'm hearing the continuous move to the...

    Suppose

    Suppose the Right wing got it's way, Zero taxes, no government hand outs, no government interference. [edit: no government money redistribution or regulated pay rates] A low paid job might pay 6.00 dollars an hour, work 3000 hours a year like they do in China [edit: or many people working two...

    Right v Left - would this sum up the difference?

    The Right cares about money and the Left about people? By 'Left' I don't mean all Democrats, but the true Left. The difference would be seen if for example a pandemic disease hit the planet and the Right Wing countries would keep people at their jobs to protect the economy and take a...

    We could have both

    If the media is to be believed there are some political candidates on the Left, and there certainly are some on the Right. Which ones should run the country? Both. Incomes below 15,000 a year need some kind of benefits, real ones, not just empty promises as is often the case right now. We...

    Democracy has been rendered horribly confusing and ineffective

    Confusing: a lot of terms such as: left, democratic, progressive, liberal, democratic socialist, radical, reformist, interventionist, Keynesian, big government, Globalist, Neo-liberal and humanist are applied interchangeably despite the different and sometimes opposite meanings. Conservative...

    As a rule, "partially right, most of the time" is moral.

    Hi there, So I wanted to present a model for morality that is different from utilitarianism and deontology. That model is simply: Essentially, it builds on an experience of trying to be moral. It does not need specific instructions or specific consequences, but adapts, within the confines of...

    Anything Goes

    I don’t know if you have noticed it but the thing today is anything goes. The protagonist says that I want to do what I want and you have no right to tell me otherwise. If I want to do it then it is right as all morals are subjective and it is up to me to decide what is right and wrong. It all...

    The Attitude of Prayer

    Is there really a "true" way to pray? I feel as if it is different for everyone. For example, when I pray I feel more connected with God when I close my eyes and look up at the sky as opposed to downward. Some may view this as an act of defiance, though my only intention is to feel closer to...
