How would you summarize what you believe about the Bible?

  How would you summarize what you believe about the Bible? I believe that in the year 2025, if an incident happens and you ask 4 people what happened, you’ll get 4 different stories and often they will conflict with one another. This is in this day and age - so the idea of 4000 years ago, people witnessing events were able to remotely reliably convey what happened is rather ludicrous. So, I think the bible has been pained over for thousands of years trying to understand and interpret the word of God and what it means for humanity, etc, but ultimately, it’s written by unreliable witnesses and lore that is up to 300 years after the fact before it was recorded. It therefore seems to me that the bible should be looked at as something that traditions, bonding, family, and a sense of community rally around to support one another and to give positive regard to. I think its value is more so in the unity that it brings within its church and it works as a good guidebook as to how a responsi...

Here is how the world ends

What is the most far-fetched conspiracy theory you've encountered so far in 2024? Do you think that you know who is behind it? It is all planned. Economic Collapse We are about to have a market crash once again. We had an uncontrolled gain in terms of the overall market gdp due to the artificial bubble created by the holdbacks of Covid. When things lightened up for restrictions we seen all kinds of money thrown at problems to get the backlog dealt with. The has created a bubble that is similar to the housing bubble of 2008. In fact, if you look at that economic growth chart just prior to the housing collapse the economic graph is near identical with an unsustainable gain slope that was higher than it was long. This I suspect is because of Covid and then the rush to catch up. Which means at some point this bubble is going to break when some industry crisis or some type of economic shift or slow down occurs and the first companies start going bankrupt which are currently over extende...

What are the potential drawbacks of nationalizing an industry?

 What are the potential drawbacks of nationalizing an industry? It depends on what industry and what the purpose of nationalizing it is. The industries that it makes the most sense to nationalize have some criteria in my opinion: They should be static industries that do not change very much or very quickly in terms of the core of it’s business. It should be an industry that is key to public security, public safety, or the public’s interest. It should be something that is mammoth in size so that it doesn’t affect any small businesses by having it nationalized. It should add value by nationalizing it - such as continuity, consistency, stability etc. There should be a pain point that is needing to be addressed that centralizing that industry under the government addresses it. It should be specialized enough that there is not a lot of competition. It wouldn’t be small business or medium businesses getting put out of business - it should be an industry where it would be cost prohibitive...
