        No lie, if I had that kind of money I’d pay my taxes in full and fuck off to the Bahamas with an entire year of calendar models, and still have money to hook my wife up with all the cabana boys she wants, and still have enough to create scholarships for huge numbers of kids to go to college and still have enough to invest in green energy and vaccines and low-cost insulin and still have enough money to pay for food and medicine assistance to underdeveloped nations and still

        Well you get the idea. It’s a ridiculous amount of money.

          The absurdity is hiding in plain sight, but good Christians seem to forget that money is the root of all evil.

            To be pedantic, it’s the love of money that is the root of all evil.

            For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

            1 Timothy 6:10

              I’m an atheist. I only read the bible cover to cover once, years ago, to figure out what all the hubbub was about, so I may be a bit rusty. I do seem to recall the bit about “love thy neighbour.”

              I like the Jesus guy. Almost everyone else sucks.
