The great wisdom of Poverty
#19
RE: The great wisdom of Poverty
(January 18, 2016 at 7:27 am)ApeNotKillApe Wrote: Religions make a virtue of poverty. Christ came to the starving and desperate and convinced them that their suffering was somehow moral in itself, he didn't teach them how to change, how to grow, he only ever taught them that their toil would be rewarded, that their dead children were waiting for them at a special farm. He taught them complacency and submission.

Well hello Mr. Nietzsche, how's it going?
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
