Humans are pretty much the same the world over

in any era

of any philosophical/religious persuasion.

Some are very horrible.

Some are very wonderful.

Most are in between.

When the very horrible gain any kind of power over others, the evils multiply, and usually deepen and broaden in increased horrific ways.

And, horror in the name of RELIGION tends to be the worst.

I think that’s another reason Christ was so harsh toward RELIGION 2,000 years ago.

He died for RELATIONSHIP.

Nothing else cuts it. Everything else is hazardous.

Post 757, well put. It’s no fun when the wicked have power. No fun at all. And you also said,

Jesus died for RELATIONSHIP.

Verse of the day

“A man finds joy in giving an apt reply— and how good is a timely word!”- Proverbs 15:23

SELAH

“A man finds joy in giving an apt reply— and how good is a timely word!”- Proverbs 15:23
