Like a one party system? Then you really don’t have to think at all.

Non partisan systems work in small countries like Micronesia.

Even countries with 4 or more political parties are just varying degrees of liberalism and conservatism.

Also, I’m an American, I could pretend I don’t live in a 2 party system, but that would be removed from reality.

Oh, you must’ve not read my previous posts. Religion is just another tool of population control. Keep whatever faith you want as long it doesn’t hurt anyone.

Love Your Neighbor
Mark 12:31-33
If we love our neighbors with the same love we have for ourselves, there is no room for selfish acts. Furthermore, there is no way we can regard ourselves as someone higher than anyone else.

The Parable of The Good Samaritan
Luke 10:25-37
Have compassion for others

Judging Others
Luke 6:37-42
“Judge not, and you will not be judged. Condemn not and you will not be condemned.”
I don't think this needs much explanation

The Teachings of Jesus Shows How To Love Your Enemies
Luke 6:27-36
You show love to people who don’t deserve it. Do good to people who cannot return it. Be kind and merciful and loving even to those you hate and even to those who sin against you. Jesus wants us to emulate His very own character— merciful, loving, and kind. In the last section of these teachings of Jesus, the Lord commands us to be merciful as he is merciful.

Be humble
Matthew 23:12
"For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted. "

The actual teachings of Jesus tells people to be humble and have compassion for others. It's easy to be kind to people that you feel like deserve it. In fact, the bible has 22 verses that tells you not to oppress immigrants and Jesus once said "I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me."

So do the teachings of Jesus work in a modern society? Would those that actually follow the teachings of Jesus simply be labelled a commie bastard socialist?


that was a good selection thank you
one of the first things i noticed in scripture when I first started studying it was that it is a better way. what if we were all like that? what kind of world would it be?

There will always be people that take advantage of the good will of others. How else can mega churches secure another private jet?

what if you made your own scripture as a holy man, enough that the whole world could not contain its abundance? apparently the bible has the same no content update formula as blizzard entertainment games.

cmon' man the jigg is up, you've been hosed timmy.

How long does it take to grow an olive tree from seed?It will take approximately 2 months for an olive seed to germinate and seedlings to appear. And it will take up to 12 years for an olive tree to reach maturity due to the slow olive tree growth rate and be the most productive

in two months seedlings have leaves. its not a big deal at all.


Except god destroyed everything including all living things including seeds and trees. So how are there trees growing all of a sudden? Olives don't normally grow on mountain tops and even then you need to plant them in the right soil conditions. Doves don't eat olive leaves or make nests out of them. They make it out of grass, twigs and pine needles mostly.

You are trying soo hard to make it work, bending reality and language just to accommodate one of the most fairy tale, extremely unlikely set of events as truth. Well here is a 1 in a million super extreme example of this one thing happening in nature so it happened....
You are bending over backwards trying to say things like they all baby animals, the arc was sea worthy, trees grow instantly after everything is destroyed, water magically appeared flooded the highest mountain tops then went away somewhere, the language is prophetic when it suits, and now you are pitching me Simulation theory.

With your logic and reeeing I can make anything real. Heck I can prove that we are descendants of a dildo worshiping alien fish race from the Pleiades.

How about you stop worshiping fairy tales and come to terms there was no global flood, bible is simply a mythilogical story book to impart values and and morals rather then literal translation. There were a few stories based on real life but later the authors just exaggerated and made 1st century blockbuster to sell to the common peasant at a time. An allegorical hollywood adaptation.

ya God destroyed the seeds. your the only one that has ever said that............ what else did you say? o yea "You are trying soo hard to make it work"

no one said the olive leaf came from a mountain top
no one said the dove was eating the olive leaf
no one said the dove was making a nest.
look at all the try hard your doing
baby animals is a reasonable solution so REEEEEE about it
already post a vid the arc design was sea worthy with anchor stones
nope no one said trees grew instantly
water drained off already posted a vid on this
language is prophetic when its prophetic, do you even know what the word means?
simulation theory is your problem REEEEEEEE some more

"With your logic and reeeing I can make anything real. Heck I can prove that we are descendants of a dildo worshiping alien fish race from the Pleiades"
(good luck)
