Re: If I'm raptured there will be millions of others raptured too
Fortunately, the Great Tribulation will only happen if the Cult of Ignorance continues to hold political power.

Socialism was what Jesus taught.

Thank God the Rapture is ruptured; just more failed prophecy, and Faith's God is a picayune little wimp uninteresting to anyone that has any connection with reality, truth or honesty.

Re: "Salvation by faith" is (selective) religious bribery.

And of course, that negates the idea of original sin. What do you think of the doctrine of original sin? Why did they market that one?
Original Sin is the ultimate con-job, the perfect fraud. It simply says "I know it's not your fault and that YOU didn't bring sin into the world but YOU are still damned and only if you kiss Hank's Ass will you get saved. Oh, and if there is not any after life or if after you die you find out you really are damned for all eternity ... tough nuggies. "

So are you supporting the idea that Calvin (and perhaps Luther also) were cons? That the church marketed to acquire a paying audience?
No, I am not asserting motives and have repeatedly said it is pretty much impossible to actually determine motives. I am address in argument itself; the substance and conclusions to be drawn from the concept of Original Sin.
Luther is quite different than Calvin and again, have you read the 95 Theses?
It involves behavior not original sin. And by the way, the Roman Catholic Church agreed with almost every single complaint he made and implemented adoption of his suggestions.

If I believe that Jesus tells me to help someone I will help them no matter what I personally think of them, but I'm not going to adopt a principle...Matthew 25...and combine it with secular socialist ideals and claim that mandatory sharing will lead to utopia on earth.
But of course socialism does not make any such claims.
BUT there is direct evidence that social ideals can make life a little better for the least of these.

Are you saying that under communism the US would be better off?
Do you know what Communism is or are you simply dealing with yet another misconception of your own making?
Do you think an employee owned company is evil?

Re: Consequences
Do you think that if you are faced with debts far beyond your ability to repay that it is reasonable for society to forgive those debts and remove your obligation to repay beyond what is possible?
