Agreed!
Agreed!
Exactly
And sited the latrine right next to the well, for convenience.
I have to agree again sir
Well if you didn’t like that Jesus guy and worshiped the land and the water they fucking burned you as a witch.
Doesn’t sound very nice does it!
Nah man, brutal. Then again I don’t know how you can go to the mountains, stand in their glacier filled majesty, come back and think that God is in a wooden or stone building with a ceiling.
We need money is this world. That is how it is. We don’t need greed. Greed stinks
If we were more evolved as a species we wouldn’t even have money, but because humans are selfish and very dumb we have money! 🌎
Money is the root of all EVIL? And some religions are richer than most countries So they must be the Devils telling LIES? And how do they lie their way out of that? #religion
In my opinion, all religions distill down to fear of death
The whole line of, "omg, you do land management instead of bleeding it dry for every last penny; you must be re-educated" hits pretty hard rn. Esp bc the Dust Bowl apparently didn't get the message across...
It is insane, that's for sure. We belong to the Earth, all things are sacred, and all people should be respected.
What’s worse too is that they took the beliefs they apparently held so dear and just didn’t see fit to apply it anyone that didn’t look like them. 😔
While I haven't seen numbers to back it up, I got the impression a lot more white settlers "went native" than natives *chose* to become "civilized".
My mum used to say the only people who thought money was gross is those who have enough of it. Money isn't the problem humans are.
At the time who and how one extended empathy was still being sorted out. Due to dogmatic positions and assumptions of western culture being superior (at that time compared to African and Asian cultures) they presumed they knew better than the people teaching them how to survive in the new land.
Have yet to meet an actual Christian that actually practices what Jesus supposedly preached
Christianity is the worst thing to happen to the world
Christianity is the corrupted bastardization of the teachings of Jesus. These evilgelicals will totally freak if Jesus actually does come back, regardless of how that may occur. Revelations has always been subjected to misinterpretation by non-prophets (who should be denied their tax free status)
In Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven,” the Dear Lady we all know personifies a knowing path. youtu.be/qnpZCB9BUIw She picks 1) Foo Fighters “Everlong” 2) Oasis “Wonderwall” 3) Tool “Pneuma” 4) docs.google.com/document/d/1... 5) Collective Soul “Shine” 6) RHCP “Snow” 7) “Battle Hymn/Republic”

Religion became one with money. Can't have one without the other. Greed is the result. Now it's the cause of everything evil.
These are only the tools of hatred, of sadism.
💯
Jesus is just a cover for their true target of their worship: Mammon.
The real demon is sadism, which is the face of sadomasochist sociopathy. The Bible makes too much of greed. The accumulation of wealth is just one of the tools of their hatred, note the hat-red. But, yes, the warnings in Revelations about false worshippers is perhaps more in evidence in these times.
Hoarding wealth is moral failure.

Excellent, Thanks for sharing!
I'll always consider their first album a classic. After that their stuff didn't hit as hard. However, to this day, I still use the term - "We're all Bozos on the bus."
I like that “Bozos on the bus” 🚌
Yeah ... their second album,I believe. I have an anti-race campaign. Basically, ALL people, on the planet are Homo Sapiens - Bozo's on the Bus. One race - can't be racist. (All the shit that defines as racism is real; just obscured by the big lie via the Catholic Church.)
Money is neither. It's how you go about attaining it and abuse it is gross. Example, the biggest one Vatican City. Catholics entire city to police themselves and their ill gotten gains.
The land, water and sun exist.
Money isn’t gross, the worship of it is. The Mother Earth, the land , nature - that IS sacred
History makes alot more sence once you learn that yhwh (a war/destructive storm diety who apeared as a bull) and el (the king god and god of oaths/deeds/contracts) merged to become the old testament god. Abrahamics worship a god who was a fusion of war and buisness
That and drinking whiskey, which was especially constructive advice for Native Americans, as The West Wing helpfully pointed out.
I'd be happy to take your money off your hands.
That's been the big 'achievement' of christianity. Getting people to buy into the theory, "Do whatever you want. If you mess things up too much, your invisible daddy-in-the-sky will save you!" so that their followers figured they could rape the planet to death without *consequence*. 🙄
The premise of false forgiveness, which has absolutely nothing to do with real forgiveness.
Or the premise of false sacrifice, which has nothing to do with *real* sacrifice.
In life, if you have to come up with a sacrifice, you're just submitting a bribe. Real sacrifice comes to you, unbidden, and demands you choose a path.
Real sacrifice has nothing to do with bribery. It requires of you that you give up something of yourself on behalf of somebody else. A general, for example, sacrifices nothing. He's safe. The troops, OTOH, sacrifice everything. Their very lives at need.
Thanks to having a few at least very good ones, we are not the slaves of Adolf Hitler's progeny.
Not as a disagreement. A great general has been out in the battlefield, with his own life on the line. Everytime he has to order troops into battle, he carries the weight of every death that occurs. He has to be able to look their families in the eye, knowing his orders.. Not all of them are great.
*Some* do, that's true. Some seem to have a strong predilection for utterly forgetting what it was like to actually *be* on those lines. Some even seem to get some kind of twisted thrill from finally being the one who gets to send *other* people to die. There are all kinds.
💯
It's called expansion of the cult.
Except Jesus would have agreed with indigenous people.
💯
How many of the modern Protestant religions are descended from puritans?
More like "let's blame Jesus for our killing these people and stealing their land," same crap the fascists still do today
Sadomasochism is gross, the lust for money is just a tool used to create pain and suffering. These are, and have always been, those who feel only hate for the rest of humankind. They desire to continue to destroy everyone else until they themselves also die, or, someone ends their miserable life.
The pattern of creating chaos and strife, then blaming supporters for not doing things right, then pushing them out if 12 story building windows is part of every dictators modi. Some try to hide it well, some are too stupidly audacious to bother with, to them, trifling details.
The ancients knew money and fame will ultimately be used to exploit you.
I don't think they had a concept of money tho
In my defense, seventh century B.C.E. China seems pretty old.
💯
Both are the root of all evil!
Money is the epitomy of all EVIL
I don't see it that way. Money 💵 💰 isn't evil anymore than guns and knives kill. They are a medium of expression in the minds and hands using them as a means to an end. They are used as tools to achieve the inner goals of whomever has the means to achieve desired outcomes.
Indeed Money is NOT evil it is the ROOT of ALL EVIL Example Look at the current new hires for ICE The majority for now appear to be latino a d/or black. Why would those being suppressed the most want to be the oppressor? For the love of money Root of All Evil
💯
Claiming to know the TRUTH when you don’t and then making laws based on it is gross 🤮
Typical uneducated moron doesn't even get that right. Native tribess saw nature as sacred. Every creature, every tree, even the stone has a spirit. When you listen, the Earth speaks to you. Something the colonists have and will never understand.
the elegance of the simplicity.... 💯
Jesus did not look like a 90's singer.
😂
💯😂
Everyone is so serious around here. Nice to see someone has a sense of humor, TY.
I am serious when needed, but I can find humor in just about anything!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
No thanks, white jesus, Purposefully misinterpreted forgiveness gives criminals further opportunity 4 oppressive actions. Forgiveness is about the victim's relationship with the outer world. It's about how to let go n continue the life that was intended to be lived. There is NO kindness in allowing
in allowing your daughter to continue being raped.
Christianity has nothing to do with being in a civil society! It is just other than a way to control the masses, and wage war!
