If being wealthy hugely undermines your chances of entering Gods Kingdom of Heaven, why do Republicans, who are overwhelmingly one denomination of the 30000 of Christianity, covet money so much?

The easiest way to get rich these days is to do "God's Work"

Megachurches Making Megabucks and the Rich Pastors Behind Them

“It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” Those words are recorded in several scriptures from the Bible and serve in an analogy from Jesus that wealth and power do not grant an individual access to “the kingdom of Heaven.” Instead, it is humility and helping those less fortunate (among other things) that might allow someone to ascend after death.

Unfortunately, these leaders of popular churches seem to have not received that memo and through their “God’s word” have amassed insane amounts of wealth. Will that help them get into Heaven?

"When did atheists become so evangelical? I mean, if you don't believe something to be true, wouldn't you just ignore it? That's certainly what I do. Whether it's leprechauns or a congressional debt reduction plan - if I'm convinced it's fiction, I simply put it out of my mind. Not the atheists. They are obsessed with faith and religious practice. Their identities and their works are one big reaction to that which they hate. No longer content to simply dismiss God and those who follow in Him, the New Atheists have created a cult of unbelief." -- Laura Ingraham
 
Actually the quickest way to riches is to be a public servant, promise free shit for everyone, then belly up to the government trough and gorge yourself for a lifetime.

Funny then, why Laura Ingraham just can't ignore liberalism.

And if she doesn't believe what atheists might say is true...



why isn't she just ignoring it!?:rolleyes:
 
because when you lefties mistaken vote for leftists thinking they are liberal your politicians then try to steal our freedom in contravention the American tradition real classical liberalism.

Can you imagine a govt trying to tell a business that it must provide drugs that can cause the killing of a fetus. And that same govt even tries to tell institutions tied to or founded by a chruch... or tries to do that and then back doors it.

That is so anti classical liberalism and yet big govt drone leftys are like yeah obama, yeah democrats... screw the other side and what the believe.

We really need to understand you are supposed to leave other people alone so that you can both choose how to live and be free as long as you don't try to kill each other. (which is why abortion is such a tough issue.)
