If yins aren't reading Fred Clark, you need to be. Basically: "Modern Christianity is a bullshit pseudo-religion that was invented to excuse slavery and later modified to make abortion the mortal-est sin of all time. Real Christianity, as it was practiced for about 1700 years would look at people citing single bible quotes and say 'the fuq is this' or 'lol get on my level scrub'"

http://www.patheos.com/blogs/slacktivist/2017/03/03/ignorant-jerks-abusing-poor-will-always-will-always/

quote:

... Jesus never actually said, “The poor will always be with you.” That’s our English translation of a Greek text translating an Aramaic speaker reciting a Hebrew scripture.

Specifically, he was quoting Deuteronomy 15.

Jesus was quoting the Torah to his disciples, and he knew that they would know that was exactly what he was doing.

So Moses says “there need be no poor people among you,” but it’s conditional. “If you fully obey …” the Jubilee laws and the other commands he’s just laid out for them, which includes a massive program of land reform, property redistribution, the safety nets of gleaning and gathering, tithes for the poor, and periodic debt cancellation. Do all that like you’re supposed to, and there will be no poor among you.

The full "the poor you will always have with you..." quote is ended with "...as long as you fuckheads don't adopt full communism now"

Coffee is usually hot, but if it's hot enough to melt someone's entire crotch if spilled there, and you're heating it to that temperature solely so you can sell less of it for the same money and then selling it to people who are currently driving around in cars, then being asked to forfeit a day's coffee profits so you loving stop doing that seems fairly reasonable to me

like, I think asking people whether they make their own home coffee hot enough to literally melt a crotch should communicate the problem

I've tried this, they literally refuse to hear the words and it's depressing

I've tried to explain the McDonalds coffee burn lawsuit to intelligent people and it's like talking to a brick wall that doesn't understand that coffee that hot isn't something you need to "be careful with," it's a grenade with the pin pulled.

Or the actual facts of that case, where McDonald had repeatedly been told their coffee was entirely too hot (they had purposefully jacked it to extremely high temps so that people who grabbed one on the way to work would still get a "hot coffee satisfaction" if they started drinking it way later) and had disregarded earlier instances and complaints as well as safety standards.

That case is textbook poo poo about companies doing extremely dumb poo poo but then convincing retards that no the extremely disadvantaged and innocent are in the best place to bear the burden as opposed to the wealthy and willfully negligent corporation.

there was a great documetnary on tort reform on netflix that referenced thsi and at the end they interviewed some lifelong republican dude who had always been "gently caress those moosher and ambulance chasing lawyers" who had been rund own by a company truck or something, resulting in lifelong medical conditions that severely impacted his life

and he was like "all i got from the suit was $250,000 i cant live the rest of my life on that. when they explaiend to me why i couldnt get more i realized i was exactly the person i voted against and it hit me like a ton of bricks"

also the more important part is that any national right to work bill that has any chance of getting anywhere has to have exemptions for police, firefighters, etc. otherwise FOP goes on the warpath and Rs don't really want that.
