Are you sure you went to church. After the last couple replies, it's become obvious you have no clue about Christianity.
The only version of Christianity is that of Jesus granting us salvation. You do not need to do anymore to get into heaven, but you argue works.
Take your statement about the Pope and kindly fuck yourself in the face with the Pope. You are so stupid, you will now invoke the Pope as an expert after you just whined like a bitch about said Christianity. Way to complain about something but then try to use it against a person when you won't even honor it's intent.![]()

Re: Culture Wars
In a perfect world, sure, that sounds great. In the real world, who's going to go into these areas if we're not going to make them profitable? I think the hardest one is healthcare. People go into medicine, as doctors and nurses, sure, to help people. But they also want to make money. If we reduce the amount of money doctors and nurses, and say, even drug researchers make, it follows that we're just going to have less of them, or at least less of the best and brightest of them. Is that really helpful in the long run? Even in most countries where healthcare is run by the state and is given to all, most have a side by side private healthcare infrastructure to handle the desires of those who, for the right price, can pay for better, more comprehensive, more immediate care than what the public system provides. And professionals like doctors and nurses who want to make more money eventually gravitate to that system.
Education is similar to this - we don't pay teachers, on the whole, something commensurate to what they can make doing something else, so as a result, the best and the brightest go somewhere else and the educational system falters.
Prisons? Sure, I'm fine with that, but you still need someone to build them and they're going to want to make a profit building them or they don't get built.
With proper regulations and oversight, a lot of the problems that exist in these areas you mention could be solved. Not all, but a lot.

Thousands of Cubans have taken to the perils of the Florida straits on nothing but an inner tube to escape Klams idyllic misery
The Capitalist Cubans that escaped the revolution built Miami, a booming global destination
Meanwhile, Havana remains a miserable disaster baking in the Caribbean sun with widespread power outages and the misery list is long

I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump put some focus on Cuba now, place is crawling with Chinese and obviously prime location to continue spying on the United States.

And/or make degrees affordable and broaden the pool of applicants.
Not everyone is driven predominately by earnings potential. That sounds like cynicism brought on by the capitalist domination philosophy we’ve been spoon fed our entire lives. It’s dated and tired argument. There are actually people in the public sector who truly love what they do. There are wealthy professionals who underperform. Regardless, the system is broken and I don’t think regulatory bandaids are gonna fix it at this point.

Re: Culture Wars
Like Oklahoma needs to be any dumber.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/202 ... SApp_OtherOklahoma high schools to teach 2020 election conspiracy theories as fact
State superintendent Ryan Walters tapped chief of Heritage Foundation, key player behind Project 2025, for curriculum
Sat 17 May 2025 18.18 EDT
As part of the latest Republican push in red states to promote ideologies sympathetic to Donald Trump, Oklahoma’s new social studies curriculum will ask high school students to identify “discrepancies” in the 2020 election results.
The previous standard for studying the 2020 election merely said: “Examine issues related to the election of 2020 and its outcome.” The new version is more expansive: “Identify discrepancies in 2020 elections results by looking at graphs and other information, including the sudden halting of ballot-counting in select cities in key battleground states, the security risks of mail-in balloting, sudden batch dumps, an unforeseen record number of voters, and the unprecedented contradiction of ‘bellwether county’ trends.”
The revised curriculum standard comes at the behest of Ryan Walters, the state school superintendent, who has publicly voiced his support for Trump. In October, Walters lauded Trump in an interview, saying that “Trump’s won the argument on education”.
Walters, who has also advocated for ending “wokeness” in public schools, went on to say: “We have education bureaucrats that are left-wing, elitist, that think they know best for families, and they have become so radicalized that our families are going: ‘What is going on here?’”
Oklahoma’s new social studies standards for K-12 public school students, already infused with references to the Bible and national pride, were revised at Walters’ direction. The Republican official has spent much of his first term in office not only lauding Trump but also feuding with teachers’ unions and local school superintendents.

https://www.ktvb.com/article/news/local ... c0b71877aaThe poster has been in Sarah Inama's sixth-grade world civilizations class at Lewis and Clark Middle School for the last four years. District officials told Inama the poster violated district policy because it expressed a personal opinion that some don't agree with in "today's political environment." After first taking it down, Inama put the poster back up in her classroom.
