A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

That pastor may want to reread the Bible. Jesus was a rabble rouser.

Eh.

Anti-Roman imperialist.

Pro Jewish theocracy.

The Jewish theocracy was involved in his murder. So, he apparently said and did a lot of things they didn't agree with.

This is the opposite of what the biblical Jesus did.

Says pay taxes to Rome.

Calls religious leaders a brood of vipers.

No, he pointed to Roman denari in a time when the area used multiple forms of coinage, including their own shekels, and said to a Roman spy to "Render unto Caesar's what is Caesar's," and was eventually executed for treason and being generally obnoxious to the Romans. He also routinely called out religious corruption while demonstrating perfect knowledge of religious law, which, by the way, would have included extremely clear penalties for accepting the Roman Emperor as a god, refusal to do so being treason in the empire.

A skeptical sort might note that, to a rebellious territory that would launch a massive, religiously rooted revolt a few decades after his assumed death, while his new cult had spread like wildfire, "What is Caesar's" might have two answers to a conquered subject and a Roman.

You might also ask yourself if the Roman Church might have downplayed certain aspects of his life while proselytizing and becoming part of the imperial establishment.

Firefighters — who once backed the DeSantis takeover — are among those furious about the changes

"I didn't think the leopards would eat my face."

benefits like park passes are unethical.

Wtf. Perks are win-win. It's a trivial expense to allow employees to use existing company assets, but it's very valuable to the employees. Boss gets happy employees for less expense. Both sides are happy. No, that's bad because:

"Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except from God," the passage began. "And those which exist are established by God. Therefore, whoever resists authority has opposed the ordinance of God and they who have opposed will receive condemnation upon themselves."

Ok, I didn't see anything about perks there, but this logic supports gassing Jews (what the local authority wanted) and condemns smuggling them out of Germany (opposing God apparently).

These people are dangerously insane.

Not surprised that the governor who went doctor-shopping for an anti-vax surgeon-general would also find an anti-worker religious figure to speak on his government's behalf.

In the name of God, you are being saved. Please do not resist.

This is the entire reason religion still exists after all. It is mercilessly persecuted and subdued by those in power as long as it threatens them. Once they manage to get control and influence over the religion, they promote the hell out of it because it's an easy way to control people.

Too many people forget that the Bible was written and edited by people who once controlled Europe. If course they didn't want people to resist their authority. This is the problem with blindly trusting a source.

Out of curiosity, anyone know what these park perks are? I couldn't find it in the article at all
