There are now studies (I/you need to look up the references since I’m now in a hurry) which posit that, especially in bigger organisations, 80% of the work gets done by 20% of non-managing individuals - because of exactly this phenomenon.
The scam isn’t ‘hard work’
The scam is the ‘a job gives you(r life) purpose’ narrative.
Nope, times a thousand. Meaningful relationships, having realistic (but still challenging) goals, self-expression, responsibility for the well-being of others and engaging in meaningful initiatives, among many others, do.
I actually did, but people don’t normally have conversations about why NATO is a good/bad idea on first encounter 😆

Well, given that the world is pretty much on fire right now, it does feel a bit out of place to start rambling about Christian hypocrisy. So, like, yea, I get your point and I do believe most religious people are hypocrites (nor is that a phenomenon that only affects Christians), but…how about, if we want to follow that line of thinking, pointing the finger at the ‘’‘’‘’‘’‘‘Jewish’’‘’‘’‘’‘’ state and its genocidal ‘’‘leader’‘’, that rabid dog no politician anywhere is willing to put a leash on? We would be talking about hypocrisy at a much, much higher level and it would be, at the veeeery least, as relevant…
…and you are figuring that out in 2025?
Yea, but The Church (or, since you’re specifically talking about Gringoland, rather, churchES) are capitalist enterprises - hence you can’t expect them to criticise capitalism (even less, capitalists).
From a purely technical perspective, I am very interested in reading/researching just how they are planning to implement this.
From a social/democratic perspective, I am very interested in finding out just what the hell they mean by ‘a well founded suspicion’. Interesting times ahead.
No.
