The lemmings have been promised an eternity in some heaven, Cuttsie, provided they give up their worldly goods now, so their preachers can have theirs while they are still alive. No different to todays politicians. Hang on to your wallets! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the other true believers who believe the “Planet is dying in 5, 10, or 20 years, unless you ante up $trlllions to let them “fix it”. (Not to mention those that believe Trump is the most corrupt politician ever, including the Biden and Clinton families! ) Edited January 5, 2023 by trastrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The World is not fair" This has been said for decades as some sort of excuse for the vast disparity of wealth. much of it caused by conquest and empire building. No attempt to fix it. Well it's going to come back to bite us once and for all. We've always been on the winning team, but no more. Our current problems are a lot to do with our slow slide into poverty as other countries ascend. Italy once ruled the world, as did Greece. Look at them now and see our future. However it's not just about countries. There is more wealth sloshing about but in fewer hands than ever before. Every country however poor has millionaires, several have billionaires which makes the gap between rich and poor even more extreme. Some of these billionaires have more money than entire countries put together. It's about time we started fixing the gap and levelling up across nations so everyone at least has the basics; food, clean water, shelter, education, and health care. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And so much of that wealth is in the Vatican City A place that supposedly opens its arms to the poor and needy while displaying extravagance. Beyond belief. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyond belief. Exactly. Gives religion a bad name. No wonder people have lost faith in it. I wonder what God / Jesus would think of it?

I'd imagine even Geldoff has got fed up with it all. 1985 fighting in Ethiopia leads to a large famine, huge numbers of deaths. 2022, they're at it again.
